Developments in commodities could hardly be more different at the moment. While gas, oil and also lithium are in strong demand, precious metals are a tragedy. The development of the shares of the companies active in the respective sectors is corresponding. The Gazprom share is at a multi-year high, and energy prices will be a topic at the next EU summit. After the all-time high at the end of September, Standard Lithium is in a sharp correction. Debt-free Tembo Gold is currently interesting for anti-cyclical investors and has published positive news.

    Tembo Gold drills debt-free

    One thing is clear, those who are currently buying gold stocks are buying against the trend. However, it is precisely in this anticyclical action that great opportunities lie. The nervousness on the stock markets is never-ending. Inflation and further insolvencies of Chinese real estate companies are only two critical topics. Next to industry giants like Barrick Gold is the still largely unknown explorer Tembo Gold. The Canadian Company has secured an area of 174 square kilometers in Tanzania. It is located in a very attractive gold region near Barrick Gold's Bulyanhulu mine. Bulyanhuluge is among the world's largest high-grade gold mines.

    In September, Tembo detailed its planned drilling program. It is scheduled to begin in October and confirms positive results from earlier drilling. Drilling of 7,000 meters is planned. This is to be distributed over 54 drill targets which have been determined using Goldspot Technologies' artificial intelligence-based software. In this way, the assumed courses of the gold veins already found are to be discarded or confirmed. Tembo is debt-free and has just completed a CAD 2.3 million equity financing. Tembo CEO David Scott: "Thanks to the perseverance and commitment of our company's Tanzanian and Canadian leadership team, Tembo has succeeded in holding and expanding its concessions in one of the most promising areas of greenstone geology I've seen in my 20+ years as a geologist in Tanzania."

    Gazprom: Plenty of reason to rejoice

    Gazprom shareholders have reason to celebrate. The Russian gas giant's stock was down slightly yesterday, but that does not change that it has more than doubled this year and is trading near a multi-year high. Gazprom is benefiting from skyrocketing energy prices - especially for gas. The development has now even attracted the attention of politicians. The energy markets will be a topic at the meeting of the heads of state and government of the EU member states on October 21 and 22. In addition, Gazprom has won a stage victory in the dispute over Nord Stream 2. The European Court of Justice (ECJ) has ruled that Nord Stream 2 AG is entitled to take legal action against the amended European Gas Directive. The new rules came into force after the start of construction of the recently completed pipeline from Russia to Germany. They included requirements for the unbundling of gas sales and pipeline operations. Gazprom subsidiary Nord Stream 2 is fighting against this.

    Standard Lithium: Correction soon over?

    After the all-time high of around CAD 12.00 at the end of September, the Standard Lithium share is in correction mode. Although this is nothing unusual after the strong performance in the current year, the decline to below CAD 9.00 is quite severe. There is currently no operational news from the Company, but the correction is unlikely to be sustainable. The demand for lithium as a raw material for electromobility is too strong for that. Car manufacturers present new electric models almost daily. At the same time, only a few listed companies are available to investors for investment.


    There is joy and sorrow in commodity stocks at the moment. Those who buy a gold stock like Tembo anticyclically could soon be rewarded. As long as energy prices remain this high, Gazprom shares will also remain strong. Standard Lithium shares will remain volatile in the future, but the trend towards electromobility should continue to support lithium prices in the future.

    Commodity investments: Why Globex Mining is the hidden gem next to Barrick Mining and MP Materials

    The global economy is undergoing a fundamental shift from an era of free trade to an era of scarcity. Commodities are no longer mere trade goods, but instruments of national security and expressions of geopolitical power. The US government's announcement that it will create an exclusive commodity trading bloc demonstrates this. At the same time, the International Energy Agency (IEA) has heralded the age of electrification, in which demand for copper, rare earths, lithium, and antimony is rising to historic highs due to the expansion of global data centers for artificial intelligence and the decarbonization of industry. S&P Global forecasts a copper deficit of 10 million tons by 2040. China continues to control over 50% of refined copper production and dominates the supply of 19 out of 20 critical minerals. This concentration is forcing Western countries and investors to rethink their strategies. We present options that have received little attention so far.

With a market capitalization of around CAD 30 million, the company has potential that fires the imagination. Three stocks, three stories, and all have just picked up speed. Those who are invested in the gold sector or want to be should take a closer look now.

    Precious metals are back in the spotlight, and three stocks in particular show how differently investors can profit from this trend. Kobo Resources is an up-and-coming gold explorer from Canada that is gradually building up an impressive gold deposit in West Africa. Barrick Mining is one of the industry's giants, but is currently struggling with strategic decisions and a decline in production. First Majestic Silver made a remarkable turnaround in 2025 and is ringing investors' cash registers. Three companies, three stories, but all united by one trend: rising metal prices are fueling the imagination. Those who do not take a look now could miss out on a real opportunity.
