Defense Sector Insider Picks: BYD, DroneShield, NEO Battery
The tech world is undergoing a rapid transformation, driven in part by AI and global conflicts, that goes far beyond simple software solutions. It is about physical power, energy, and the defense of assets in an unstable geopolitical landscape. While BYD is conquering the roads with electric mobility, DroneShield is securing airspace against threats. In the shadow of these industry giants, a development is emerging that could transform the very heart of both worlds. We are talking about a new battery technology being developed in South Korea. NEO Battery Materials is poised to push the boundaries of what is possible. In this report, we examine how these three players will shape the energy and security market in 2026, and why one of them, in particular, is attracting the military's attention right now.

The Metal of the Energy Transition: Avrupa Minerals and Barrick with Upside Potential, BYD Under Pressure
The EU list of critical raw materials comprises 34 substances, including, among others, metals used in batteries and the energy transition, such as lithium, cobalt, nickel, and copper. Copper, the "metal of the energy transition," plays a pivotal role in renewable energy, electric mobility, and infrastructure. Europe, in particular, still has considerable ground to make up when it comes to developing domestic raw material sources. This is precisely where the Canadian company Avrupa Minerals comes in with a compelling strategy. At the same time, Barrick Gold is steadily evolving into a major copper player, while BYD faces an increasingly challenging market environment. Which stock offers the greatest potential?

Trump and the EU Need Critical Metals and Oil Alternatives! BHP, Avrupa Minerals, Mercedes, and BYD
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.

The battery megatrend is driving business growth at BYD, NEO Battery Materials, and DroneShield
Electrification has moved beyond its experimental phase and is now emerging as a structural disruptor. At the heart of this transformation are high-performance batteries, which have long since ceased to merely power vehicles and now serve as a fundamental energy platform for the next technological era. From autonomous logistics drones to AI-powered data centers, the scalability of these future markets depends on the efficiency and stability of energy storage systems. Anyone setting the course for tomorrow today must understand that these value chains are inextricably intertwined. We will therefore take a closer look today at the automaker BYD, the high-performance battery manufacturer NEO Battery Materials, and the drone defense specialist DroneShield.

Silver Shortage Drives the Market: Why Silver Viper Is Significantly More Dynamic Than Fresnillo and Pan American Silver
The silver market is currently reaching its capacity limits. A supply deficit that has persisted for six years, totaling 820 million ounces by the start of this year, is being met with record demand. Key drivers include photovoltaics, electric mobility, and the rapid expansion of data infrastructure. Solar energy alone consumed around 448 million ounces in the first half of 2025, as new cell types require more silver. This drove the price above USD 100 per troy ounce. Against this backdrop, market leaders such as Fresnillo and Pan American Silver must replace their dwindling reserves in established mining regions like Mexico with high-quality resources. This hunger for resources directly impacts companies at the beginning of the value chain. Agile explorers controlling projects in close proximity to existing infrastructure are coming into focus. One such example is Silver Viper Minerals, which is strategically positioned within the Mexican silver sector through its acquisition of the Coneto project and the involvement of Fresnillo as a key shareholder. We highlight the opportunities for investors.

The Stock to Watch in the Drone Boom: NEO Battery Materials Expands Production for Military Applications
The opportunities from the drone boom, robotics, and electric mobility - all in a single stock. That sums up the NEO Battery story in one sentence. The high-performance batteries manufactured in South Korea are urgently needed across all these sectors. Supply chains outside of China are becoming increasingly important, especially for drones, and NEO provides them. At the same time, the company outperforms Chinese competitors in terms of performance. Production is ramping up this year, and the company has already secured a plot of land for expansion. The initial focus is on cells for drone applications and collaboration with the South Korean Ministry of Defense. This could open doors within NATO. It can really only be a matter of time before the stock takes off.

Lynas Rare Earths, Power Metallic Mines, Mosaic – 3 Winners in the Raw Materials War
The global battle for critical raw materials is intensifying. Resources such as rare earth elements, copper, nickel, and cobalt are indispensable for electric mobility, wind power, and power grids, but also for modern defense technology. While China still controls large parts of global processing, the US, Europe, and their partners are attempting to establish new supply chains through multi-billion-dollar programs. Mining projects, recycling processes, and strategic partnerships are therefore moving into focus in this geopolitical race. For commodity companies, this environment is turning critical minerals into one of the defining investment themes of the coming years.
