From Chip Shortage to Oversupply? Micron, Infineon and Strategic Resources in the Cycle Check
Concerns that the multi-billion-dollar expansion of new chip factories and AI data centers could outpace demand and trigger a classic "hog cycle" marked by oversupply, price pressure, and a freeze on investment had recently cast a shadow over the tech boom. However, Nvidia's blockbuster quarterly earnings have temporarily alleviated those concerns. Demand for computing power remains high, doubts about the profitability of massive AI investments are receding into the background, and the rally can continue. Micron benefits directly from the rapidly growing demand for high-performance memory, while Infineon enables energy-efficient power supply for data centers. Strategic Resources focuses on the raw materials and resources without which the expansion of the physical infrastructure of the AI era would not be possible, with a particular emphasis on high-quality iron ore and vanadium.

AI, E-Mobility and Robotics: 150% Upside? Mercedes-Benz, BYD, XPeng and Strategic Resources in Focus
The profound convergence of artificial intelligence, robotics, and e-mobility is completely redefining today's industrial landscape. This technological revolution is being led by visionary companies that are deliberately upending conventional industry norms. For example, the Chinese pioneer XPeng is strategically transforming its business model toward "Physical AI" to enable vehicles to merge with humanoid robots in perfect symbiosis in the future. At the same time, global industry leader BYD is pushing into the European market with an unprecedented scaling offensive, while established luxury manufacturers like Mercedes-Benz are building an emotional bridge between high-performance software and legendary driving culture. Yet amid this rapid race for technological supremacy, one fundamental truth is often overlooked: without securing the underlying raw material supply chains, the entire high-tech machinery comes to a standstill. This is where the raw materials specialist Strategic Resources Inc. positions itself: with its Canadian BlackRock project, the company already has a key approved mine. It is worth taking a closer look at the numbers.

Billion-Dollar Opportunity in the Steel Transition: thyssenkrupp, Strategic Resources and Siemens Energy in Focus
The European steel industry is facing major changes. EU climate policy is forcing these long-established companies to undergo a radical shift toward low-carbon production, while global competitors have long produced at lower cost. The transition requires the right raw materials and a significant amount of green energy. In the long term, this transformation could become a competitive advantage. The industry must make the right decisions; after all, many jobs—and Europe's independence in steel production—depend on it. We are therefore taking a closer look today at thyssenkrupp, Germany's largest steel producer; Strategic Resources, a potential supplier of raw materials; and Siemens Energy, a potential technology partner.

Concrete Gold, Tank Transmissions and Critical Raw Materials: How Bold Investors Could Benefit from Vonovia, Renk and Strategic Resources
They say the stock market—or rather, money—never sleeps. The phrase was made famous thanks to the movie "Wall Street". But some turning points in the capital markets also arrive quietly, almost unnoticed. Today, we take a look at three stocks and three very different stories. First, there is Germany's largest residential landlord, which is currently dealing with rising interest rates, political disputes and some still-skeptical analysts. Things look somewhat different for an Augsburg-based drivetrain specialist, which is riding a wave of record orders from the defence sector. And then there is a commodities stock that remains largely under the radar. The chart of this "golden gem" could soon send signals that attract investors' attention. Three very different worlds. And yet all three stocks are currently at a critical juncture. Those who look closely now may find almost everything: defensive substance, genuine growth and a potential breakout opportunity. These three stocks could be well worth keeping an eye on.

Steel Transformation in Jeopardy: How Strategic Resources Plans to Support thyssenkrupp and Salzgitter
Smoking chimneys and hot blast furnaces have defined industrial regions in Germany and elsewhere for decades. But the era of the traditional steel industry is coming to an end. Anyone driving through European industrial centers today sees mostly construction sites—the climate-neutral future is already casting its shadow. The industry is also moving away from traditional steelmaking processes due to emissions regulations and high prices for emissions allowances. But the shift away from coke brings new problems: without pure intermediate products for the steel industry, the transformation risks failing. We shed light on the situation and highlight potential beneficiaries.

Commodity Stocks for Long-Term Portfolios: Eldorado Gold, Strategic Resources and Pan American Silver
The commodities sector is currently experiencing significant momentum. Gold and silver have regained momentum in recent weeks, while copper is already trading near an all-time high. Coal and iron ore are also moving higher. The US has demonstrated through its intervention in the foreign-exchange market, particularly regarding the yen, that it remains comfortable with a weaker dollar. This should continue to support commodity prices. Since these are long-term trends, investors should position themselves accordingly in this segment. We therefore take a closer look at the stocks of Eldorado Gold, Strategic Resources and Pan American Silver.

AI and Software in a Super Cycle: SAP, Oracle, Strategic Resources and ServiceNow Are in the Spotlight
Another new DAX 40 high—thanks to heavyweight SAP! Thanks to artificial intelligence, the global software sector is currently transforming into an absolute growth rocket. A recent study by market research firm IDC backs up the hype: global AI spending is already set to explode to around USD 940 billion in 2026. This monumental wave is pouring massive amounts of capital directly into the coffers of the most innovative tech giants. Walldorf's pride and joy, SAP, is using AI to transform sluggish ERP systems into hyper-smart, self-thinking control centers. Meanwhile, rival Oracle is rapidly expanding its cloud capabilities to handle the gigantic volumes of data generated by modern language models. ServiceNow, the workflow king, is demonstrating how to elegantly eliminate repetitive office work through automation. Management recently underscored this success with a substantial increase in AI revenue targets for 2026. Right at the epicentre of this, Strategic Resources is securing the necessary attention for a crucial upstream stage: critical metals. Investors should take a closer look at what really matters now! We offer a few pointers.

PNE Shock! MP Materials Rebounds! When Will Strategic Resources' Rally Begin?
A bombshell at PNE. Offers from interested investors are reportedly below the current market price. Following this news, the shares of the wind farm developer and operator have plummeted in recent days. Yet its project portfolio appears anything but unattractive, particularly given the company's recent announcement of a project sale. Strategic Resources, meanwhile, looks increasingly poised for a potential rally. The company is building an integrated value chain spanning from raw materials to the steel industry and battery manufacturing, with a particular focus on green steel. Corporations such as ArcelorMittal, Salzgitter, thyssenkrupp, and SSAB are investing heavily here and require high-purity iron ore pellets. Strategic Resources aims to supply these. After a price drop of over 50% from its recent highs, MP Materials is finally showing signs of life. Investors responded positively to the company's second-quarter update. However, the company remains in the red.

BHP Group, Strategic Resources, and Freeport McMoRan: AI and Robotics Are Triggering a Commodity Supercycle
Commodity markets are on the verge of a supercycle. The rapid expansion of digital infrastructure, from AI data centers to robotics, is driving demand for a wide variety of commodities to new heights. As soon as production becomes more efficient, sufficient materials will be needed. Copper, the backbone of electrification, is a prime example of the looming supply shortage. Overall, the combination of growing demand and only gradual expansion of mining operations is the perfect breeding ground for a sustained rise in commodity prices. This price surge will ultimately have a positive impact on the balance sheets of commodity companies. Three companies that stand to benefit from this trend are BHP Group, Strategic Resources, and Freeport McMoRan.

Fortescue, Strategic Resources, Rio Tinto: Why the Market for Premium Ore Could Explode Right Now
Iron ore is abundant on Earth. But the material needed for lower-carbon steel production could become scarce. Direct reduction plants require significantly higher-quality ore than traditional blast furnaces. At the same time, new steel production capacity is set to come online in India and Southeast Asia alone, while aging mines are disappearing from the market, shifting the competitive landscape. In the future, what will matter most is not just who supplies the most tonnage, but who can offer high-quality material, affordable energy, and the right infrastructure.
