Europe steps on the gas! E-mobility and secure supply chains - Avrupa Minerals, BYD, VW, and Stellantis
The stock market year has gotten off to a turbulent start, but a new megatrend is gaining traction: critical metals! While 2025 was dominated by AI and high-tech stocks, raw material suppliers, essential for maintaining industrial competitiveness, are increasingly moving into focus. Over the past 12 months, they have been able to offer investors dream returns in the three- to four-digit range. At the same time, there has been hardly any growth on the NASDAQ since the beginning of the year. Former high-flyers like Palantir, Nvidia, and Strategy are currently trading below their 2025 highs. International commodity stocks dealing with the issue of "Western supply chains" have now moved up the list of top performers. Without strategic metals, the secure production of electrical infrastructure, renewable energy systems, and defense technology is not possible. It is therefore worthwhile for investors to rethink their tech portfolios and add good commodity stocks to their watch lists. Meanwhile, the automotive sector, under pressure for months, could be stabilizing after the sobering results of 2025. We take a closer look at the key players.

Rheinmetall, Bayer, Avrupa Minerals: Stocks for Europe's independence in defense, pharmaceuticals, and raw materials!
Europe is working feverishly to achieve independence. This applies, among other things, to defense, raw materials, and medicines. Investors can profit from these three stocks. Avrupa Minerals is developing raw material projects in Finland, Portugal, and other countries, skillfully diversifying to reduce risks. The stock is still largely unknown, but this is likely to change soon. Rheinmetall is a basic investment, although there was a noticeable drop in its share price last week. Are expectations too high? At the beginning of 2025, there were hardly any expectations for Bayer. This made the comeback of the company and its stock all the more spectacular. Recently, positive study results have once again caused excitement. The next blockbuster is in the pipeline.

The witch dance continues! Another 100% with TKMS, DroneShield, Pasinex, or the new CSG?
The stock markets are extremely volatile, so it is time to take a closer look at some of the key players. Many investors are now focusing on a scenario of ongoing war. Hardly anyone expects real peace to be achieved, as a recent survey shows: 72% of those surveyed do not expect any of the existing trouble spots to enter a state of peace in 2026. This means that public skepticism is higher than the current "super summit talks" between the superpowers around the globe would suggest. In addition to defense stocks, commodity stocks also remain in a state of constant battle. Scarce metals appear to be becoming even scarcer, judging by the spot price. Anyone looking at the precarious situation in Europe should take a closer look at Pasinex Resources' zinc project. Here are a few tips on how to generate a 100% return.

Geopolitics as an opportunity: How to profit now with BYD, Pasinex Resources, and Rio Tinto
The rules of the global economy are being rewritten. It is no longer market forces alone that determine the course of events, but geopolitical strategies and the battle for critical resources. In this new geo-economy, the ability to assert oneself in a politically driven cycle determines success or failure. Three companies are exemplary on this front line and reveal the concrete opportunities and risks: electric mobility pioneer BYD, zinc producer Pasinex Resources, and mining giant Rio Tinto.

The USD 200 billion poker game: Why a merger between Glencore and Rio Tinto could pave the way for Pasinex Resources
The 2026 stock market year began with a rumor that could shake the foundations of the global commodities industry. In trading rooms from London to Toronto, there were increasing signs that industry giants Rio Tinto and Glencore were once again considering a merger. It would be a historic mega-merger, creating a hegemony with an estimated value of USD 200 billion. Initial exploratory talks between the two companies have now been confirmed. But while analysts are still discussing the antitrust hurdles, the "smart money" is already looking to the second tier. After all, such a mega-merger would have one primary goal: absolute control over the critical metals of the energy transition, above all, copper and zinc. In the shadow of these giants, flexible, high-grade players such as Pasinex Resources are emerging as the real winners, as they deliver precisely the agility and production quality that the cumbersome large corporations lack.

Caution with Plug Power! TKMS with major order! Pasinex Resources completes acquisition!
In 2026, investors are likely to continue to focus on stocks in the defense, raw materials, and hydrogen sectors. Pasinex Resources currently offers an opportunity to buy or add to positions. The zinc high-flyer impressed investors in 2025, and the positive news flow is likely to continue in 2026. A producing mine is being expanded, and a project is set to go into production soon. TKMS started the new year with a major order, giving the stock a new boost. After halving in value, analysts see Plug Power as a buying opportunity. But caution is advised! The hydrogen pioneer faces an important decision on January 15, 2026.

Rally in sight – Zinc is the secret beneficiary of the steel boom and electric vehicles! Recognize the potential in Pasinex Resources, BYD, and Salzgitter!
The year 2025 was marked by sharply rising prices for raw materials. These included precious metals, especially silver, critical raw materials, but also industrial metals such as copper. The bottom line is that this year's rally passed zinc by. Starting at high prices in January, the price of the volatile industrial metal fell by around 10% over the course of the year. Zinc is used in a wide range of industrial and technological applications: as corrosion protection for steel, in alloys, and as electrode material for certain types of batteries. As the long-term growth drivers remain intact, investing in zinc offers good opportunities. Companies such as Pasinex Resources, which have high-grade deposits and can therefore achieve well above-average margins, are to be favored.

Top tips for 2026 – Critical metals and armaments! DroneShield, Pasinex, RENK, and Heidelberger Druck in focus
In 2025, there was a pronounced rally in critical metals starting in the summer. This was largely triggered by China, which imposed export restrictions on rare metals and strategic raw materials in response to arbitrary tariff demands from the White House. The metal markets reacted with strong upward movements, and the procurement centers of Western industry reacted even more severely. In view of the needs of the near future, a large number of properties would have to be brought into production in the areas of copper, graphite, lithium, uranium, zinc, and rare earths. However, it takes around 10 years to set up a mine, including all permits and preliminary investigations. Because this is far too long for the current needs, the market is looking at projects that are about to start production or are already producing. We offer a few ideas from the supply chain and potential customers.

Boom 2026 – Energy transition now! Which stocks are convincing in the long term? Power Metallic, Nordex, Siemens Energy, or JinkoSolar
The year is drawing to a close. Will next year see the losers of 2025 really take off? And even more interesting: can the blockbuster stocks from the artificial intelligence, high-tech, big data, and raw materials sectors repeat their historic returns? We think it is wise to expect somewhat lower returns. But here, too, everyone could be wrong. Tesla provides one example. Elon Musk's visionary company is selling fewer and fewer vehicles, and competition is growing. However, with topics such as robotics and autonomous driving, the dazzling founder always has new aces up his sleeve, and the stock keeps rising. We can provide some assistance in the energy sector, but there are also clear overvaluations here.
