Rheinmetall shares break the €1,900 barrier
The Rheinmetall share continues its impressive record hunt in 2025 and has recently exceeded the €1,900 mark for the first time. This corresponds to an astonishing annual increase of 216 percent. This remarkable rise reflects the company’s strong performance and the growing interest of investors, especially in the DACH region, where Rheinmetall plays a central role as a DAX-listed company.
Analyst expectations rise
UBS analyst Sven Weier is very positive about further developments. He has raised the price target for Rheinmetall shares from €1,840 to €2,200 and continues to recommend buying the stock. This optimistic assessment is based on several indicators:
- The solid financial foundation of the defense company.
- The increasing importance of military rearmament in the geopolitical context, especially with regard to the upcoming NATO summit.
- Rheinmetall’s ability to stabilize its supply chains and overcome capacity bottlenecks in the industry.
Furthermore, the NATO target to invest 3.5 percent of GDP in defense is already largely reflected in the stock price.
Geopolitical influences and investor interest
These developments are further reinforced by current geopolitical conflicts, increasing investor interest in defense companies like Rheinmetall. Investors are increasingly recognizing the growth dynamics and positive outlook of the company.
In summary, Rheinmetall shows strong growth dynamics with promising prospects for investors. The rise in the stock price above the €1,900 mark and the increase in the price target by UBS reflect a healthy corporate image and underscore the importance of Rheinmetall as a key player in the European defense sector.
