OHB Caught in the SpaceX Trap! Buy Rheinmetall Now? Almonty Shares Added to the Russell Index Today - Tungsten Outperforms Gold!

Rheinmetall has had a disastrous week. The stock of Germany's largest defense contractor has lost more than 20% over the past five trading days. Is this a buying opportunity? What do analysts say? OHB's stock plummeted by over 30% last week. The German aerospace company shocked shareholders with a major capital increase and the partial exit of a major shareholder. Furthermore, the space hype surrounding the SpaceX IPO appears to be over. Still, the stock is up over 100% so far in 2026. Almonty shares have posted similarly strong gains in 2026. The price of this tungsten high-flyer also consolidated last week. However, the price of tungsten remains at an all-time high. More and more media outlets are reporting on shortages of this critical raw material—even in China. Almonty should continue to benefit from this trend. Incidentally, as of today, the stock is part of the Russell 1000 and 3000 indices.

This Investment Scenario Will Last for Years: Tungsten Giant Almonty and the Demand from Hensoldt, RENK, and Others

  • Tungsten
  • Defense
  • hightech
  • geopolitics

On January 1, 2027, the US Department of Defense's import ban on tungsten products from China, Russia, North Korea, and Iran will take effect. Because tungsten is considered an almost irreplaceable element in defense technology, semiconductors, and the aerospace industry, this ban is creating significant time pressure across these sectors. At the same time, the EU is also tightening requirements for raw material sovereignty with the Critical Raw Materials Act (CRMA). China is exacerbating the situation with export restrictions on dual-use materials. As a result, the global tungsten market is sliding into a severe structural shortage. We take a look at where the opportunities lie for investors—and which companies to watch.

Three Tech Stocks in the Spotlight: Micron Technology, Volatus Aerospace, and First Solar

  • Defense
  • Drones
  • aerospace
  • hightech

Will interest rate hikes derail the tech boom? Maybe. But the fact remains: the artificial intelligence-driven sector is growing dramatically. After AI hyperscalers reported their first-quarter results, analysts raised their estimate for industry capex this year alone to more than USD 700 billion. Companies like Google, Meta, Amazon, Microsoft, and others are heavily investing in breakthroughs, believing this is where future profits and monopolies will emerge. Beneficiaries of this trend are not only the hyperscalers themselves but also their vast supplier networks, as data centers require chips, memory, and energy. AI development is also playing a key role in the drone industry. Whether civilian or military, unmanned aerial systems already have a firm place in the world today and are likely to grow in importance. Against this backdrop, we take a closer look at the stocks of Micron Technology, Volatus Aerospace, and First Solar.

175% with AI, High Tech, and Chips: Infineon, Aixtron, Broadcom, and Strategic Resources Under the Microscope!

  • ironore

  • AI
  • hightech
  • chips

A long uptrend and the first cracks in the technical picture - triple-digit returns were available on nearly every high-tech stock in recent months. Starting in March, the anticipated flood of orders for data centers and hyperscalers was compounded by the supply shortage debate sparked by the blockade of the Strait of Hormuz. What a breeding ground for both fear and greed! Ultimately, the optimists prevailed, catapulting well-known stocks from the semiconductor and AI sectors to new heights. But what now? Easing tensions in the Iran conflict and a plummeting oil price are taking the pressure off the pipeline, and already, the future scenarios are changing dramatically once again. With falling energy prices, production is becoming cheaper again, and supply prices are coming under pressure. It is precisely this complex situation that the capital markets must now digest. Doubts about the outlook will lead to profit-taking and falling prices, triggering follow-on selling. The correction is beginning to take hold, but at some point, it will also create attractive entry points. We take a closer look!

Shockwaves in the German defence sector! TKMS Surges! Will drone specialist Volatus Aerospace and Heidelberger Druckmaschinen be next?

  • Drones
  • Defense
  • hightech

The German government has sent shockwaves through the German defence sector. While Rheinmetall's stock briefly plummeted by more than 16% on Wednesday, TKMS's stock rose by over 10%. The trigger was a "Spiegel" report confirmed by the Ministry of Defence. According to the report, the German government is ending the severely delayed and significantly more expensive F126 frigate program. This puts Rheinmetall's medium-term plans at risk. At the same time, TKMS could benefit. Volatus Aerospace is capitalizing on the drone boom. With a new location, the company aims to grow in the civilian and military drone market. If it succeeds in monetizing its 500 million dollar pipeline more effectively, the stock should take off again. Heidelberger Druckmaschinen is in the midst of transforming itself from a printing press manufacturer into an industrial and technology company. In the future, it also plans to get involved in drone defence. While there is still a rocky road ahead, analysts recommend buying the stock.

Tungsten as a Bottleneck: A Good Entry Point for Almonty Industries? Alarm Bells Ringing at Rheinmetall! Intel on the Rise!

  • Defense
  • hightech
  • AI

Tungsten prices have skyrocketed in recent months. Inventories are dwindling, and China is curbing exports. Demand from the defense, semiconductor, and medical technology sectors is outpacing supply. Analysts are warning of structural shortages. The price per metric ton unit (MTU)—equivalent to 10 kg—has been above the USD 3,000 mark for some time now. The metal is becoming a critical bottleneck for armour, processors, and high-tech applications. To avoid this dependency, there are only a few Western producers. Almonty Industries, which holds one of the largest tungsten deposits outside of China, is increasingly moving into focus. Alongside this, we take a closer look at the current situation at the defense company Rheinmetall and the semiconductor manufacturer Intel.

Defense and Critical Metals: New Investment Opportunities! Rheinmetall, Renk, Almonty Industries, and RTX in Focus

Supply Chain Problems! US President Donald Trump has summoned leading defense contractors to the White House because the US is concerned that its missile and ammunition stocks are too low following its involvement in the Iran War, according to the Wall Street Journal. The meeting will focus on how to quickly ramp up production to rapidly replace, above all, Patriot interceptor missiles, Tomahawk cruise missiles, and other critical munitions. Expected participants include Lockheed Martin, RTX, Boeing, L3Harris, Northrop Grumman, and Honeywell Aerospace, among others. The companies have agreed in principle to expand their capacities but are still waiting for the necessary funding and binding contracts. That is precisely where the problem lies at the moment: The US has a debt problem, and without budgetary funds or a congressional agreement on special appropriations, the planned contracts cannot be finalized legally. At the same time, Trump is urging the industry also to use spare capacity from other sectors—such as automakers—for weapons production. Defense seems to be overshadowing all other major issues in the US. The stock market clearly sees things differently! Where do the opportunities lie for investors?

Volatus Aerospace, Hensoldt, and Rheinmetall: Three Stocks for the New Drone and Defence Boom

  • Drones

  • hightech
  • aerospace
  • geopolitics

After the war comes rearmament. The conflict in the Middle East may be nearing an end—the US and Iran recently signed at least a declaration of intent to end the war at the Palace of Versailles. But this will only temporarily slow down global rearmament, if at all. In the long term, the defence boom will continue worldwide. And the wars of the future will no longer be fought solely with tanks, aircraft, and missiles. Drones, sensors, software, autonomous systems, and electronic defence technology are fundamentally transforming the defence industry. What seemed like a niche topic for specialists just a few years ago has now become a multi-billion-dollar growth market. Governments around the globe want to become more independent, secure supply chains, and modernize military capabilities more quickly. This is precisely what is giving rise to new investment opportunities. Volatus Aerospace is currently particularly exciting for speculative investors; those who prefer a more conservative approach can also add Hensoldt and Rheinmetall to a defence-focused portfolio.
