Buckle Up for a Short Squeeze: Could Almonty and HelloFresh Follow SpaceX's Rocket Launch?
When short sellers are caught off guard, it can lead to veritable price explosions. Although no supernova was observed at the aerospace company SpaceX last week, it was definitely more than a gentle liftoff: the share price shot up by more than 15% following its quarterly results. Notably high short positions have also recently built up for the tungsten producer Almonty Industries and the meal-kit delivery service HelloFresh. With earnings reports just around the corner for both stocks, these numbers could become the catalyst for an even bigger move.

Dividend Yield or Growth Potential? The Opportunities Offered by Bayer, BASF, and Volatus Aerospace
The war in Ukraine remains a source of uncertainty that continues to weigh on global markets. Russia and Ukraine are continuing their attacks on infrastructure and industrial facilities, while diplomatic solutions are still nowhere in sight. For investors, this means that energy prices, commodity markets, and security-related sectors remain vulnerable to sudden news developments. In particular, defence and aerospace stocks, as well as companies focused on autonomous and security-related technologies, including drones, stand to benefit from rising defence budgets and the growing need for technological independence. Investors entering the market at this time should therefore consider this underlying geopolitical tension as a permanent factor in their risk assessment. Against this backdrop, we take a closer look at Bayer, BASF, and Volatus today.

Almonty Industries, Deutz, and GFT: Strong Upside Potential Thanks to Tungsten, Defense, and AI
Commodities, defense, and artificial intelligence are among the major stock market themes of our time. Three companies are currently making headlines in these areas. With its new tungsten mine in South Korea, Almonty Industries has evolved from a project developer to a producer. Engine manufacturer Deutz is establishing a second pillar in the defense sector through a multi-billion-euro acquisition. And software specialist GFT is demonstrating for the first time on a large scale that it can generate revenue with its own AI solutions. Three stocks with strong drivers for price growth—but very different risks.

Germany in the Crosshairs: Regulations Slow Down Hensoldt and DroneShield – Is Volatus Aerospace Heading for a Boom in Orders?
A threat is increasingly looming over industrial facilities in Germany, keeping European security authorities on edge: drones. While unmanned aerial vehicles could still be dismissed as harmless toys just a few years ago, the targeted surveillance of critical infrastructure using professional drones paints a completely different picture today. In 2023 alone, authorities recorded at least 446 drone sightings over German military sites, while the number of incidents involving critical infrastructure rose to well over 1,000 by the end of 2025, according to the Federal Criminal Police Office. When unmanned systems spy on Bundeswehr facilities unnoticed or collect precise data on gas pipelines, caution is warranted—and this was true even before the incident involving a drone loaded with explosives at Leipzig Airport. We explore potential solutions and highlight exciting companies.

RENK Group, Volatus Aerospace, and TKMS: Defence Boom – Three Ways to Capitalize on the Land, Air, and Sea Opportunity
The West is in the midst of a fundamental overhaul of its security architecture. After years of relying on a relatively stable geopolitical environment, governments are now significantly increasing defence budgets to strengthen military readiness and resilience. As a result, companies supporting this structural transformation of the defence industry are benefiting from long-term demand. Modern defence capabilities are no longer defined solely by the number of platforms deployed, but increasingly by the integration of mobility, intelligence, surveillance, and maritime capabilities. Against this backdrop, RENK Group, Volatus Aerospace, and TKMS each offer distinct ways to gain exposure to the ongoing defence investment cycle. Together, they represent differentiated opportunities across the land, air, and maritime domains of modern defence.

Drone Economy 2.0: Wars, Fires, and Delivery! SpaceX, DroneShield, Volatus Aerospace, and Lufthansa in Focus
The next phase of growth in the skies is just taking off! The global drone economy is completely reshaping itself into a multi-billion-dollar megatrend and revolutionizing traditional industries through the convergence of AI, logistics, and defence. While the space company SpaceX, with its Starlink network, provides the indispensable, crisis-proof communications infrastructure for global drone operations, the defence specialist DroneShield is benefiting directly from the rapidly rising military demand for sophisticated counter-UAS systems against asymmetric threats. Canadian company Volatus Aerospace is also making a quantum leap from traditional small drones to highly profitable, government-funded aerial wildfire suppression in North America through a new strategic partnership for the autonomous heavy-lift large aircraft FlyOx 1. Then there were poor earnings figures from Lufthansa yesterday. Despite the negative headlines, compelling buying opportunities may be emerging for investors.

How Almonty Industries, Rheinmetall, and RTX Are Driving the New Defense Supercycle—and Why the Correction Could Be an Opportunity
The New York Post recently reported that, according to experts, the US does not have enough missiles to protect its troops in the Middle East in the event of a protracted war with Iran. This means that the West has largely depleted its ammunition stockpiles. A defense supercycle is on the horizon, forcing nations to become self-sufficient. This rapid depletion is revealing a critical bottleneck. The dwindling availability of tungsten, whose price has skyrocketed, threatens to jeopardize resupply efforts. We take a look at tungsten supplier Almonty Industries, then examine the European defense giant Rheinmetall, and conclude with the technological leader of the US missile industry, RTX.
