Price Surge: What is Behind the Moves in D-Wave, Heidelberger, and Group Eleven?
These three stocks are currently causing a stir. Group Eleven Resources is a high-flyer in the commodities sector. The stock has surged by around 70% since the end of February. The company is currently developing a zinc, lead, and silver project in Europe. The latest update suggests the rally will continue. D-Wave has made a comeback with a price explosion of over 50%. After a price drop of around 70%, this was sorely needed. The momentum came from Nvidia, not the company itself. And what is happening at Heidelberger Druckmaschinen? After the euphoria over its entry into the drone business, a profit warning brought a dose of reality. The core business is weakening, but analysts see a buying opportunity.

Netflix, Oracle, Avrupa Minerals – Crash, Comeback, Hidden Gem: These 3 Stocks Are Making Waves Right Now
Deceptive record figures, a risky strategic shift, and a historic leadership change are casting doubt on Netflix, causing the stock to take a significant hit. At the same time, a tech conglomerate is celebrating a spectacular comeback with double-digit growth rates and strong buy signals, thanks to the AI boom and a cloud offensive. Even more exciting, however, is a commodities player that has gone largely unnoticed so far but could emerge as a true high-flyer in the shadow of the energy transition and exploding AI demand. With a focus on Europe, a low market capitalization, and massive leverage on new discoveries, a potential revaluation beckons here.

ASML, Group Eleven Resources, Aixtron – Europe with Game-Changing Potential
Europe is emerging as the epicenter of a new commodities and technology boom. While a near-monopolist with record margins is driving the global chip industry and reaping the benefits of exploding AI demand, a potential game-changer in the commodities sector is taking shape on the continent. High-grade polymetallic deposits, combined with a strategic location and low costs, could significantly reduce dependence on imports. Massive investments and expanded drilling programs are accelerating the development toward a potential key role in European supply. At the same time, optimistic forecasts in the semiconductor sector are providing additional momentum. Europe could thus benefit twice over, both technologically and in terms of raw materials.

Europe's Path to Raw Materials Sovereignty: Key Roles for Lundin Mining, Boliden, and Avrupa Minerals
Due to geopolitical developments, Europe is more compelled than ever to reduce its dependence on global supply chains by increasing its own production of base metals. With the Critical Raw Materials Act (CRMA), the European Union (EU) has set ambitious targets to produce at least 10% of its strategic raw material needs domestically and process 40% itself by 2030. This urgency is underscored by forecasts from the International Energy Agency (IEA) and McKinsey, which expect a significant supply deficit of up to 30% for copper by 2035. According to experts, this deficit is driven by the global energy transition and the construction of data centers for artificial intelligence. According to analyses by S&P Global, the transformation requires not only capital but also a radical reorientation of industrial policy away from global just-in-time supply chains toward resilient, domestic clusters. In this complex landscape, the value chain is being reshaped, with companies such as Lundin Mining, Boliden, and Avrupa Minerals each occupying specific segments. We outline companies and business models and discuss opportunities for investors.

Iran Crisis: Billions in Weapons and Technology – Are Rheinmetall, RENK, and Group Eleven Set to Soar?
Later today, the next—already postponed—ultimatum regarding the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz could begin to unfold with significant consequences. US President Donald Trump has made it unmistakably clear on his own social media platform that the West will no longer tolerate the restriction or threat to international trade routes. For investors, this underscores a critical reality: the supply of industrial goods is increasingly fragile and may require fundamental restructuring over the long term. Ongoing conflicts, particularly in the Middle East, are forcing a rethink of global sourcing strategies for raw materials and industrial inputs. It is widely understood that building alternative supply chains will take years—if not decades. Europe, in particular, which is already under pressure, must address structural deficits across multiple sectors. For policymakers, the message is clear: decisive action is required. Meanwhile, Group Eleven Resources holds land rights covering more than 500 sq km with mineralization in critical metals—positioning it within this broader strategic shift.

thyssenkrupp with green steel, Group Eleven in the commodities boom, NIO setting standards in e-mobility – 3 strategies for investors
Global trade routes have become the new Achilles heel of industry. Geopolitical tensions, shipping bottlenecks, and intensified competition for critical raw materials are forcing companies to fundamentally realign their strategies. As established supply chains become increasingly fragile, the issue of strategic supply security will determine the winners and losers. A look at the situations at thyssenkrupp, Group Eleven Resources, and NIO shows how three companies from different sectors, ranging from the green transition to critical raw materials exploration and smart e-mobility, are navigating this tectonic shift.

As oil prices surge to new levels above USD 100, investors are facing heightened supply chain concerns. Just as during the COVID-19 pandemic, global trade relations in the commodities sector are at risk of grinding to a halt due to the closure of the Strait of Hormuz. Following significant price declines across all industrial sectors, it is essential to identify potential winners. The commodities giant BHP can look forward to rising revenues and cash flows, while a new surge in e-mobility is expected in the alternative energy sector. Avrupa Minerals is searching for critical materials in Finland and Portugal and has already made discoveries. An exciting investment opportunity is currently emerging.

Trump Threatens to Withdraw from NATO! Hensoldt, SAP, Avrupa Minerals: Stocks for a Strong Europe!
Donald Trump's latest threats against NATO, if the alliance fails to support him in Iran, highlight Europe's dependence on the US and China. Europe must finally invest consistently in its own capacity to act: in raw materials, the digital economy, defense, and much more. An important signal is now coming from Spain. Madrid is allocating over EUR 400 million for critical raw materials, making it clear that economic and military sovereignty begins with the raw materials base. Europe's actions are also creating investment opportunities. Can Hensoldt, SAP, and Avrupa Minerals benefit from this?

Spain is investing over EUR 400 million in critical raw materials: Deutsche Rohstoff, Group Eleven Resources, and Standard Lithium in focus
Spain is taking the initiative on critical raw materials and has allocated EUR 414 million in public funding. The action plan, which runs through 2030, includes 34 measures aimed at strengthening the exploration, recycling, extraction, and processing of strategically important raw materials. A full EUR 182 million is earmarked for a new national exploration program. This move is noteworthy because Madrid is sending a signal that has long been missing in Europe: securing raw materials is no longer a secondary issue, but a central pillar of industrial policy. Group Eleven Resources could benefit from this shift. The company is currently advancing a zinc-lead-silver project in Ireland, and the stock is gaining momentum. Shares of Deutsche Rohstoff AG have also performed strongly, with analysts seeing further upside potential. And what about investor favorite Standard Lithium?

Mining comeback in Europe: Solid returns with Group Eleven Resources, Boliden, and Glencore
The European raw materials landscape is undergoing a realignment. For decades, the industry relied on cheap imports from overseas. But those days of largely unchallenged globalization are coming to an end. In order to end dependence on uncertain supply chains and ensure the survival of the industry, the focus is shifting to domestic extraction of critical metals. The European Commission has defined clear goals with the Critical Raw Materials Act and the ambitious RESourceEU Action Plan: By 2030, 10% of the mining and 40% of the processing of critical metals should occur within the EU. In this environment, the European zinc and silver sector is making a comeback. While zinc has historically been in demand primarily in the construction industry, it is now indispensable for the corrosion protection of wind turbines. Silver is even becoming a critical industrial metal due to the tremendous boom in artificial intelligence (AI) and the construction of data centers. Ireland, in particular, is establishing itself as a raw materials region in this phase. The country has one of the world's most productive geological provinces for high-grade base metals and boasts excellent geoscientific data from the Tellus program. Established mining giants such as Boliden and Glencore are setting standards, while up-and-coming explorers such as Group Eleven Resources are shining with spectacular discoveries and offering investors extremely lucrative entry opportunities.
