Between market panic and profit: What Almonty has in common with Apple and IBM

  • Tungsten
  • hightech
  • Volatility
  • Investments

The war in Iran has long since become a conflagration in the Middle East, including energy price shocks. Trading on Tuesday was particularly typical of this market environment. The day perfectly reflects the psychological state of market participants. Driven by horror stories from the Middle East and concerns about a global energy crisis, many stocks experienced drastic fluctuations. But while many stocks are still under pressure, Almonty's share price revealed a pattern that experienced market participants interpret as a sign of relative strength. After initially falling sharply, the stock stabilized rapidly, pushing the price back up significantly before the close of trading. In periods of extreme uncertainty, investors are not looking for short-term speculation, but rather for companies with a unique market position, a crisis-proof margin structure, and operating potential based on irreplaceable resources. We draw historical comparisons and explain that even heavyweights such as IBM and Apple have had to weather headwinds in the past.

Iran's drones are unstoppable! Volatus Aerospace poised for massive growth!

  • Drones

Images of burning buildings in Dubai, Qatar, and Riyadh are circulating worldwide. With relatively inexpensive drones, Iran is demonstrating just how vulnerable even heavily armed states and major cities are: nothing seems safe – neither military bases nor consulates, neither infrastructure nor residential buildings. While the war in Ukraine has long shown the dominance of unmanned systems, many regions still lack adequate drone defense. This is precisely where Volatus Aerospace comes into play. The Canadian drone specialist is entering the drone defense market while its core business continues to boom - and the stock is on the move again.

War in focus, silver in the portfolio: Why Newmont, Silver Viper Minerals, and First Majestic Silver are now must-own stocks

The escalating war in Iran has suddenly catapulted precious metals into the center of investor attention. While gold, as a classic crisis hedge, has reached new heights, silver is undergoing an unprecedented revaluation. It combines the security of a precious metal with its irreplaceable role as a high-tech raw material for photovoltaics, e-mobility, and AI infrastructure. Geopolitical supply chain risks are exacerbating an already existing supply deficit, while industrial demand is reaching record levels. Investors are now wondering which companies are best positioned in this environment. We therefore take a look at the strategies of Newmont, Silver Viper Minerals, and First Majestic Silver.

High volatility, electrifying opportunities! Stellantis, NEO Battery Materials, and DroneShield on the move

A drop of 1,000 points in the DAX, now that is quite something. It is not surprising that some stocks are no longer stable, but it also shows the relative stability compared to larger volatility swings. Experts refer to this relative market risk as the beta factor. The lower this value, the more stable the stock. In a vulnerable environment of geopolitical upheaval, the impact of operational announcements is also noteworthy. Stellantis, for example, took a 25% hit on less-than-good news of a restructuring, while DroneShield is seeing strong gains due to a collaboration with the Australian Department of Defense. NEO Battery Materials is making steady progress in measurable and scalable ways, and capacities are now being adjusted to handle potential defense orders in the medium term. Extremely exciting!

Antimony Resources: 10,000 m of drilling, CAD 7 million in cash, USD 3 billion in raw material potential – Why this stock is hot

  • flameretardant
  • geopolitics

While the global commodities world is fixated on the price development of copper, gold, and tungsten, a revolution is taking place on a completely different front. Antimony, classified as a critical raw material by both the EU and the US, has become a geopolitical bargaining chip and thus one of the most exciting investment opportunities of the coming years. In this environment, a small Canadian company is making headway. Antimony Resources is developing one of North America's most promising antimony deposits at its Bald Hill project in New Brunswick. A new zone was recently discovered during construction work, while work on the first resource estimate is ongoing. Measured by its potential, the current market valuation appears more than moderate.

The Iran War is driving the war economy – Almonty Industries, Rheinmetall, and the RENK Group under scrutiny

The Iran war is causing oil prices to skyrocket, supply chains to break down, and the global order to falter. While shockwaves are rippling through the energy markets, a contrary movement is emerging on the stock market. Investors are flocking to the winners of this new era. Not only is demand for state-of-the-art defense technology being reignited, but the battle for strategic raw materials such as tungsten, which is essential for armor and guided missiles, has also flared up again. In this environment, three companies at the heart of this development are coming into focus: tungsten supplier Almonty Industries, systems giant Rheinmetall, and drive specialist RENK Group.

Volatus Aerospace takes off: From drone service provider to defensive software house

Sometimes timing is everything. For years, Canada's Volatus Aerospace has been quietly building a business that goes far beyond selling drones. Now that governments around the world are redefining security and Canada is massively redirecting its defense spending toward domestic high-tech solutions, the company suddenly finds itself among the winners. The launch of its own software platform, SKYDRA™, is the latest evidence of a smart evolution. Volatus is transforming itself from an operational service provider for inspections into a tech company with recurring revenues, and at just the right moment.

Antimony Resources – Beneficiary of a bottleneck market

Antimony is one of the most underestimated bottleneck commodities in the world. China accounts for over 70% of global production, and export restrictions have temporarily driven prices up to around USD 60,000 per ton. Western nations are urgently seeking domestic sources for military, electronics, and flame-retardant applications. Antimony Resources is delivering high-grade drilling results, advancing an initial resource estimate, and is fully financed. In a market defined by extreme scarcity, this is precisely where a strategic beneficiary could emerge.

Valuation anomaly in the drone sector: Volatus Aerospace scores well compared to Ondas and Unusual Machines

  • Drones
  • aerospace
  • Defense
  • hightech
  • UAS

Providers of drone technology are enjoying high demand. In Germany, two startups that did not exist just a few years ago have recently received orders from the German Armed Forces. Analysts describe the current phase as an "unmanned supercycle" – autonomous systems have long been considered indispensable for national security. Reports from institutes such as Fortune Business Insights forecast a market volume for drones of over USD 47 billion in 2026, which is expected to rise to over USD 160 billion by 2034. This increase is driven by an annual growth rate of around 16%, with the defense sector considered the growth engine due to geopolitical tensions. Amid this market development, a detailed valuation comparison reveals a significant discrepancy. It is worth investors taking a closer look.

SILVER - Is the USD 150 mark now within reach? Silver Viper on the move!

Up and down – always lively! The silver price currently resembles a yo-yo; children might find it entertaining. However, it is far less amusing for the banks, traders, and especially the futures exchanges involved. For some time now, silver has proven to be an extremely important metal for the trending sectors of defense, medicine, and high-tech. Just as physical supply markets began to falter and China imposed new export restrictions, investors rushed to secure inventories on COMEX and the LME - trading venues originally established for forward sales by producers. With spot prices reaching as high as USD 122, a battle for physical stocks has now erupted. Not only is industry stockpiling significant quantities, but speculators also see the excessive scarcity as a once-in-a-century opportunity for price appreciation. Compared to gold, silver has delivered triple the performance within just 12 months, with the gold-silver ratio falling back to 55 after briefly approaching 100. Market observers expect a new surge toward USD 150 by the March settlement. It may therefore be worthwhile to consider exposure to future producers such as Silver Viper. Time is of the essence.
