    Profiteer of the chip shortage

    The technology company BrainChip is again among the top stocks with the most order executions at Tradegate. Over 2,400 transactions were counted by midday. At a price of EUR 1.609, the share can record an increase of 25.7% compared to the previous day and is thus also one of the top gainers of the day. Also in demand today are the shares of Gazprom. At a price of EUR 7.265, there is an increase of 4.83%.

    Experts with a ''Buy'' recommendation

    The oil price is causing rising profits for crude oil producers on the commodities market. The WTI crude oil has meanwhile climbed to a new high of over USD 86.00. For this reason, another energy stock is also in the focus of investors: the Canadian oil company Saturn Oil & Gas. With the level of EUR 2.74, the shares are already gaining around 2.00% today. The experts of GBC Research recently increased in their Update their price target to CAD 12.17 and rated it 'Buy'.

    On Feb. 17, 2022, BrainChip and Saturn Oil & Gas board members will present at the 'International Investment Forum - IIF' and provide insights to investors. (Free registration: ii-forum.com).

    Gold boom as an enormous price lever for explorers like Desert Gold Ventures! In or out of Barrick and First Majestic Silver?

    In recent weeks, gold and silver prices have reached new all-time highs. Silver in particular has seen a sharp increase in volatility at these elevated price levels. US investment banks remain bullish and forecast a gold price of at least USD 4,900 by year-end. Gold continues to serve as a safe haven amid geopolitical tensions, high government debt, and declining purchasing power. In addition, strategic purchases by central banks are on the rise. Taken together, these factors create a favorable environment for precious metals and producers. Last year, the shares of mining operators such as Barrick and First Majestic outperformed precious metal prices. It is characteristic of a later phase of a bull market that investor preferences shift toward explorers such as Desert Gold. We take a closer look at three industry representatives and their potential.

    Alternative to Barrick Mining and Equinox Gold: Why Maduro's fall could drive gold prices higher and make LAURION Mineral a strategic target

    The 2026 stock market year is beginning with a geopolitical earthquake whose tectonic shifts will be felt across global commodity markets for a long time to come. The direct intervention of the United States in Venezuela and the effective removal of President Nicolás Maduro have redefined the global security architecture virtually overnight. While Washington celebrates the move as a necessary restoration of democracy in the Western Hemisphere, geopolitical rivals Beijing and Moscow are responding with sharp rhetoric and brusque diplomatic protests. Uncertainty is spreading like wildfire – from the shores of Cuba, where the regime fears for its survival, all the way to Greenland, where major powers are increasingly competing aggressively for strategic spheres of influence. With gold already rising for months amid mounting uncertainty and monetary policy concerns, investors continue to flee to the safe haven. However, while established producers such as Barrick and Equinox absorb the first wave of panic-driven inflows, strategic investors are turning their attention to the few remaining safe jurisdictions such as Canada. Here, specialized explorers like LAURION Mineral Exploration hold precisely the kind of assets that are becoming the most valuable currency in an uncertain world.

    Battery supply on a knife's edge – NEO Battery Materials becomes an established industrial partner

    The push for e-mobility and rising demand from defense applications are driving a quantum leap in battery technology. At the same time, China is increasingly putting the brakes on as an industrial partner. Beijing recently imposed export restrictions on high-performance Li-ion aggregates. This makes it a real challenge for manufacturers to equip their products with high-quality energy storage. The latest announcement from NEO Battery Materials is therefore a game-changer! Certification as an OEM supplier has been completed. NEO Battery Materials, a company that is at the beginning of industrial scaling and technical differentiation, presents itself as a specialist in silicon-based anode materials with a secured production hub in South Korea. Particularly relevant for investors: high-performance batteries are increasingly being treated as critical infrastructure in Western industrial and defense policy, meaning they are structurally tied to priority investment areas. Geopolitically motivated trade barriers must be navigated carefully. Time is of the essence.
