💥⭐⭐Gold prices surged to a new all-time high-  January 26, 2026,

As gold prices hit record highs above $5,000 per ounce today, Monday, January 26, 2026, several mining and asset management stocks are also skyrocketing. Investors are pivoting to these “leveraged” gold plays, which often outperform the physical metal during significant rallies. 

Top Skyrocketing Gold Stocks Today

  • Orla Mining (ORLA / TSX:OLA): Leading gains among mid-caps, up approximately 5% today. It has gained over 370% over the past two years.
  • AngloGold Ashanti (AU): A top performer today, rising 3.9% as gold surpassed the $5,100 intraday mark.
  • Agnico Eagle Mines (AEM): Up roughly 2.2% today. It is noted for its cost-efficient operations and saw a 100% gain throughout 2025.
  • Newmont (NEM): Gained 2.3% today. As one of the world’s largest producers, it is a primary beneficiary of the “Sell America” trade as investors move away from the U.S. dollar. 

🚀🚀Trilogy Metals(TMQ): Why Copper is “The New Gold” in 2026 – January 25, 2026

Copper prices recently hit all-time highs (over $13,000 per tonne on the LME) due to a “perfect storm”:

  • The AI Buildout: Data centers for AI require massive amounts of copper for power cabling and cooling systems. This is a brand-new demand source that didn’t exist at this scale two years ago.
  • Supply Crises: Major mines in Indonesia (Grasberg) and Chile have faced shutdowns and accidents, leading to a projected 330,000-tonne deficit in 2026.
  • U.S. Tariffs: New 2026 trade policies and potential 15-30% tariffs on refined copper have caused a “land grab” for domestic U.S. copper sources.

The Trilogy Metals “Premium” Trap. Because copper is so hot, investors are flooding into any company that has it.

Avino Silver & Gold Mines Surges 19% on Record Production and Precious Metals Rally January 24, 2026

Avino Silver & Gold Mines Ltd. (NYSE: ASM / TSX: ASM) is a Vancouver-based precious metals producer with a 50-year operating history in the Durango region of Mexico. Last week, the stock emerged as a top performer in the mining sector, surging over 19% to close at $9.35 as precious metals prices hit historic highs ($4,980/oz gold and $99/oz silver). The rally was ignited by the company’s January 22 announcement that it met its full-year 2025 production guidance, bolstered by the successful early extraction phase at its high-grade La Preciosa project.

🚀🚀NuScale Power (SMR) Stock: Key Catalysts in AI Data Center Demand, Commercial Deals, and Regulatory Approvals – January 23, 2026

The primary catalysts for NuScale Power Corporation (SMR) stock are the increasing demand for power from artificial intelligence (AI) data centers, progress in securing major commercial contracts and partnerships, and continued regulatory approvals for its small modular reactor (SMR) technology. 

Key Catalysts and Drivers

  • AI Data Center Demand: The exponential growth of AI requires enormous amounts of consistent, carbon-free electricity. NuScale is in discussions with several “Tier 1” hyperscaler companies to provide power for their data centers, with many in the market viewing SMRs as a critical solution for this demand.
  • Commercial Contracts & Partnerships: Securing firm power purchase agreements (PPAs) is a major potential driver. A key collaboration is with ENTRA1 Energy, which has a framework agreement with the Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA) to deploy up to 6 gigawatts of NuScale’s technology across multiple U.S. sites. Any final investment decisions on major projects, such as the one for the RoPower plant in Romania, would also be significant catalysts.
  • Regulatory Milestones: NuScale is the only SMR developer with U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) design approval. The approval of its uprated 77 MWe reactor design in May 2025 has expanded its potential customer base and application types, including for chemical plants.
  • Government & Policy Support: High-level political support for nuclear energy and federal initiatives, such as the U.S. Department of Energy’s commitment to bolstering the domestic uranium supply chain, create a favorable environment for SMR deployment and can act as broad catalysts for the sector. 

🤖 The AI “Hardware vs. Software” War -January 23, 2026

AMD’s “Sold Out” Legend: Viral threads on X (formerly Twitter) are circulating reports from KeyBanc suggesting that Advanced Micro Devices (AMD) is essentially “sold out” of its EPYC server chips for the first half of 2026. This has shifted the narrative from “AI hype” to a “physical supply crisis,” fueling its 8-day winning streak.

Palantir’s $165 Battleground: Palantir (PLTR) is trending on WallStreetBets as it fights to stay above its $165 support level. While the stock is up slightly, bears are pointing to its extreme valuation (170x forward earnings) as a “ticking time bomb” ahead of its February 2nd earnings report.

The “Vera Rubin” Hype: NVIDIA (NVDA) is buzzing following rumors of an earlier-than-expected developer preview for the “Vera Rubin” architecture. Jensen Huang’s prediction of $4 trillion in AI infrastructure spending by 2030 is being clipped and shared across LinkedIn as the “ultimate bullish thesis.”

⛏️ Strategic Minerals & “The Silver Squeeze” -January 23, 2026

  • NAMM’s Gamma Squeeze: Namib Minerals (NAMM) remains the #1 trending ticker on StockTwits. After soaring nearly 400% since Monday, retail “diamond hand” narratives are driving a massive short squeeze, with viral targets set at $10.00.
  • Silver’s $100 Watch: With silver holding near $94/oz, Americas Gold and Silver (USA) is trending after reporting 52% annual production growth. TikTok “FinTok” creators are framing silver as a “Strategic Industrial Mineral” rather than just a precious metal, due to its role in AI cooling systems.

🔑 The Catalyst: “Quantum-Safe” AI and Infrastructure -January 22, 2026

Thursday’s market action was dominated by Microsoft and IBM making moves to simplify how developers actually use quantum power. Instead of waiting for a “perfect” quantum computer, the industry is moving toward Quantum-AI Hybridization.

  • Microsoft (MSFT): Released new open-source tools for its Quantum Development Kit (QDK). The focus is on integrating GitHub Copilot to help developers write quantum code. This is a massive growth signal because it moves quantum out of the “experimental lab” and directly into the hands of standard software engineers.
  • IBM & Keyfactor: Launched a joint “Quantum-Safe” solution. As AI grows, so does the security risk; IBM is positioning its consulting arm to protect the world’s cryptographic assets before “Q-Day” (when quantum can break current encryption), creating a new high-margin security revenue stream.
  • IonQ (IONQ): Announced that national security leader Katie Arrington joined as CIO. This is a clear signal that IonQ is pivoting hard toward government and defense contracts, specifically using quantum for AI-driven drone swarm coordination and secure mission planning.

⭐⭐Namib Minerals (NAMM) Rockets 139% on Massive Volume Spike and Technical Momentum -January 21, 2026

Namib Minerals (NASDAQ:NAMM) stock has more than doubled in price today, increasing over 139% as of late afternoon trading, following a dramatic volume spike that appears to be technically driven, rather than tied to any specific recent company news. The gold producer, which has been highly volatile in recent months, is experiencing massive buying pressure that has driven the price from a Tuesday close of $0.98 to its current price near $2.35. 

The “Big Tech” heatwave is here! 🔥-January 21, 2026

$NVDA, $TSLA,and $INTC are dominating trading volumes as AI optimism sweeps the market. While tech leads the rally, traders are bracing for the upcoming CPI report to gauge the broader economic outlook.

🚀🚀INVO Fertility (IVF) Soars Over 300% -January 20, 2026

INVO Fertility, Inc. (IVF) is the day’s top gainer, with shares up more than 319% as of January 20, 2026. This massive surge comes amid heavy trading volume and recent announcements regarding an acquisition of an Indiana-based fertility clinic and alignment of executive leadership to support growth. 

💥RAPT Therapeutics (RAPT) Acquired by GSK– January 20, 2026

RAPT Therapeutics, Inc. (RAPT) stock jumped over 63% today after pharmaceutical giant GSK announced it will acquire the company for approximately $2.2 billion. The all-cash deal values RAPT at $58 per share, representing a substantial premium over its previous closing price. This move strengthens GSK’s immunology portfolio. 

💥💥 GPT-5.2 for Healthcare: The Dawn of Augmented Clinical Reasoning– January 19, 2026

OpenAI has officially launched OpenAI for Healthcare, a suite of HIPAA-compliant tools powered by the GPT-5.2 model family. Specifically architected for clinical decision support, this marks OpenAI’s transition from a general-purpose AI provider to a specialized vertical leader.

  • Regulatory & Security: By providing a signed Business Associate Agreement (BAA) and implementing a “zero-trust” architecture, OpenAI has cleared the legal hurdles required for hospitals to handle Protected Health Information (PHI).
  • Adoption: The platform is already being integrated into frontline workflows by founding partners including AdventHealth, Cedars-Sinai, and Mayo Clinic.
  • Augmented Reasoning: GPT-5.2 is designed for “Augmented Clinical Reasoning,” which supports doctors by synthesizing medical evidence and suggesting differential diagnoses with clickable citations to peer-reviewed journals, ensuring the clinician remains the final decision-maker.

The “General” vs. “Specialized” Distinction

While GPT-5.2 is a massive leap forward, it acts as a “Generalist” medical brain—it is world-class at summarizing longitudinal records, interpreting 3D scans (multimodal), and streamlining administrative burnout (discharge summaries, prior authorizations).

HEALWELL AI (AIDX): The Specialist Edge

HEALWELL AI occupies a distinct, high-value niche that complements OpenAI’s broad infrastructure:

  • Deep Disease Screening: While OpenAI summarizes what is known about a patient, HEALWELL’s AIDX platform focuses on early disease detection—finding “hidden” patients. It uses proprietary algorithms to flag subtle patterns of rare or chronic diseases (e.g., Gaucher disease or Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD)) that often go undiagnosed by human doctors.
  • Market Validation: The “OpenAI for Healthcare” headlines serve as a massive tailwind for HEALWELL. As major health systems like Mayo Clinic standardize AI as the “new normal,” it lowers the barrier for HEALWELL to sell its specialized “Clinical Co-Pilot” tools into those same newly AI-ready environments.

The New Era of ‘Strategic Silver’- January 19, 2026

As of January 19, 2026, silver has officially shed its label as merely a ‘precious metal.’ Following its inclusion on the U.S. Critical Minerals list, the white metal is now being priced as a high-stakes strategic asset. With solar photovoltaics, AI data center cooling systems, and 5G infrastructure requiring massive silver loads, the current $94.36/oz record reflects a structural shift where supply-chain security now outweighs simple inflation hedging.

The Big AI Short: Why Michael Burry Is Betting $1.1 Billion Against the “Escalator War”- January 17, 2026

As of January 2026, Michael Burry is betting $1.1 billion that the AI boom will crash, but not because he thinks the technology is bad. He is trying to show that big companies like Nvidia and Palantir are caught in a “trap” where they are forced to spend billions on expensive equipment just to keep up with their rivals, without actually making more profit (which he calls his “Escalator Theory”). He also claims these companies are using an accounting trick to hide their true costs, pretending their computer chips will last for six years when they really become old and useless in only two. Essentially, Burry is saying that these companies are pretending to be richer than they are while stuck in an expensive race they can’t win, and he has bought “insurance” (put options) that will pay him a fortune when the rest of the world finally realizes the math doesn’t add up.

⚠️China is Now Only “Months Behind” the US in AI– January 17, 2026

Google DeepMind CEO Demis Hassabis just issued a massive reality check to the West. Speaking on CNBC’s The Tech Download (January 16, 2026), he admitted that the gap between Chinese and US AI models has shrunk to “only a matter of months.”

Why Kevin O’Leary Is “Freaked Out” by the U.S. Power Crisis 🇺🇸🇨🇳- January 17, 2026

Kevin O’Leary, the investor known from Shark Tank, has issued a stark warning that the United States risks falling behind China in the artificial intelligence (AI) race because of its outdated energy infrastructure. He argues that while AI has driven strong economic growth across all sectors, America’s stagnant power grid cannot support the electricity demands of next-generation AI data centers and compute facilities, creating a “big problem” for the country’s future competitiveness.

O’Leary directly contrasted the U.S. situation with China’s, noting that China has recently added roughly 500 gigawatts of power capacity in the last 24 months, while the U.S. has built “zero,” leaving its grid unable to keep up with rising demand from AI, high-performance computing, and other advanced technologies. Without major upgrades to energy infrastructure, he warned, the U.S. could struggle to sustain the next phase of AI innovation and data center growth.

Oklo Inc. is at the forefront of next-generation nuclear energy, developing fast-fission microreactors that provide clean, reliable power for high-demand applications like AI data centers. The stock has gained momentum in early 2026 as the “AI power crisis” drives demand for 24/7 carbon-free energy, with backing from OpenAI’s Sam Altman adding credibility. Oklo’s modular “Aurora” reactors can be deployed directly at industrial sites or data center campuses, and investors are watching closely as the company nears a key milestone—demonstrating criticality at its first Idaho site—marking the final proof of concept before commercial rollout.

Canada’s First Small Modular Reactor (SMR): A $20.9B High-Growth Energy Project

Canada’s first SMR project at Darlington — backed by Ontario Power Generation — has a total projected cost of CAD 20.9 billion (about USD 15.1 billion) for four reactors. This budget includes engineering, procurement, construction, licensing, operations readiness, escalation costs and interest over the project’s full execution horizon. The first SMR unit alone is projected to cost about CAD 6.1 billion, with an additional CAD 1.6 billion allocated for common infrastructure such as roads, cooling systems and ancillary buildings needed to support all four units. Subsequent units are expected to be cheaper as efficiency and learning effects are realized during the build‑out. The first reactor is currently planned for operation around 2030, with the remaining units coming online in the mid‑2030s.

The Great Rotation: Investors Shift from Tech to Value Stocks

As of January 5, 2026, the “Great Rotation” is in full swing. Investors are moving money out of mega-cap tech stocks and into smaller, domestically-focused companies. The Russell 2000 has surged to a new all-time high of around 2,590, outperforming the S&P 500 and Nasdaq. Stock futures show strong gains for Industrials, Utilities, Financials, and Energy, reflecting where capital is flowing as traders anticipate further growth. Cooling inflation near 2.7% and Federal Reserve interest rate cuts are also making borrowing cheaper for smaller firms, supporting this ongoing shift.
