Volatus Aerospace, Red Cat Holdings, Aevex: Autonomous Systems Are Driving the Next Stock Market Boom
Drones are emerging as the next billion-dollar market. Geopolitical tensions, rising defence spending, and the protection of critical infrastructure are rapidly driving global demand for autonomous systems. At the same time, civilian applications are growing in energy supply, logistics, and disaster response. Companies that intelligently integrate manufacturing, software, and operational services could benefit disproportionately from this supercycle. Several industry players are massively expanding their capacities, showcasing new technologies, and receiving a tailwind from analysts and major government programs.

Russia Has Its Eyes on Poland: Asymmetric Threats Boost Rheinmetall and DroneShield—Is Volatus Aerospace a Hidden Gem?
Is Russia testing NATO? New scenarios even consider the possibility of asymmetric attacks on Poland. This complex situation is forcing nations to rethink their defence strategies and invest accordingly. According to surveys by the Stockholm International Peace Research Institute, global military spending reached a historic high of USD 2.887 billion in 2025. This trend is driving the unmanned aerial systems and defence technologies sector in particular. While large corporations and specialized technology suppliers are benefiting from this realignment, smaller, more agile market players are coming into focus within the defence industry as strategic suppliers and acquisition targets. We take a closer look and highlight some exciting stocks.

Almonty, Rheinmetall, and Hensoldt: Good Buying Opportunities Among These Three Investor Favourites
The stock market loves big stories. Even better are stories where multiple trends converge at the same time. That is exactly what is happening right now with critical raw materials, defence, and high tech. The West wants to become less dependent on China; Europe is ramping up its military capabilities; and modern defence systems require ever-increasing amounts of specialty materials. Three stocks represent different aspects of this same trend: Almonty Industries, Rheinmetall, and Hensoldt. All three are very popular with investors but have recently had to weather price setbacks. A great opportunity for new investors!

Volkswagen in Crisis, Rheinmetall Plummets: Could Volatus Aerospace Be the One to Benefit?
Drones have forever changed the face of modern warfare and are forcing nations around the globe to make drastic adjustments. Driven by the sometimes harsh lessons learned from the war in Ukraine, South Korea is now also planning a radical military reform. In the future, each of the country's 500,000 active-duty soldiers is to be trained as a drone pilot to counter the ever-growing threat from North Korea. Meanwhile, the military escalation in Europe continues to accelerate. As the Ukrainian Navy uses agile combat boats in the Black Sea to intercept Russian drones and protect the vital ports of Odesa, concerns are mounting in Moscow. Fearing Ukrainian counterstrikes, the Kremlin is tightening its defensive perimeter by deploying additional S-400 air defence systems, reportedly even on the grounds of a foundation linked to Russian President Vladimir Putin's daughter. In our latest report, we examine how the rise of unmanned weapon systems is fueling a global arms race and what it could mean for the shares of Volkswagen, Rheinmetall, and Volatus Aerospace.

Price pullbacks at Almonty Industries, RENK, and Aixtron present great opportunities!
While the boom in the AI and defence sectors is a familiar topic for most investors, far too little is said about the key raw material without which ammunition and modern semiconductors could not be manufactured. Tungsten combines, like no other metal, the highest melting point with extreme hardness and high density. Demand is rising dramatically while supply remains insufficient, which has led to a veritable price explosion in recent quarters. What poses a challenge for consumers is a major boon for producers. This is particularly true for Almonty Industries. The company is one of the world's leading tungsten producers and is expected to meet 40% of demand outside of China by the end of 2027. Armed with a well-funded war chest, the company also plans to grow through acquisitions. Analysts continue to see upside potential for the stock.

ILA 2026 Unveils the Winners: Conquering the Next Multi-Billion-Dollar Aviation Market with Rheinmetall, Volatus Aerospace, and Boeing
The next stage of aerial warfare is not a distant scenario, but a tangible industrialization trend that has taken the capital markets by storm. NATO exercises, lessons learned from Ukraine, and the 2026 International Aerospace Exhibition all underscore the urgent shift toward networked, autonomous systems. Investors should not dismiss this as a mere technological gimmick. In the future, the decisive factor will no longer be the platform alone, but rather mastery of entire ecosystems comprising sensors, software, and integration. Those who identify the right companies early on will participate in a market driven by rising defence budgets and political momentum. We take a closer look at Rheinmetall, Volatus Aerospace, and Boeing.

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
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
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!
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!
