Is Washington becoming Wall Street's biggest investor? The “Henssler Money Talks” hosts discuss the government's latest 15% stake in MP Materials and nearly 10% in Intel, as it is taking positions in the same companies citizens invest in. We explore how the deal illustrates the CHIPS Act's impact on U.S. economic policy, combining subsidies, national security priorities, and direct investment to rebuild domestic manufacturing.Original Air Date: September 6,2025Read the Article: https://www.henssler.com/the-u-s-bets-big-on-chips-inside-the-intel-stake-and-industrial-policy-shift
After last week's pre-recorded interview, there's plenty in the financial markets to unpack—from the muted moves during the holiday-shortened week to the latest ISM Manufacturing Index and the Fed's Beige Book. We break down two weeks of market action and the economic data you don't want to miss.The NFL is back—and so is big business as the 2025–2026 season kicks off. With team valuations up 25% year-over-year to an average of $6.5 billion as of 2024, and the Dallas Cowboys setting a new record, we're looking at the dollars behind the game. From Fantasy Football to futures contracts on who will win, there's money to be made on and off the field—which raises the question: could NFL teams one day show up in your 401(k)?On the topic of football, the buzz isn't only on the field. The engagement between Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce takes the spotlight and they open the door to a financial conversation that goes far beyond celebrity gossip: prenuptial agreements. With Swift's billion-dollar empire and Kelce's multimillion-dollar career, the question isn't about romance, it's about protection. We'll dig into what prenups can do, why they're not just for the ultra-wealthy, and how couples can approach these conversations without derailing the love story.After the break, we dig into the future of U.S. capitalism. Is Washington becoming Wall Street's biggest investor? With a 15% stake in MP Materials and nearly 10% in Intel, the government is taking positions in the same companies citizens invest in. We explore what this means for free-market capitalism, efforts to secure supply chains, and whether bipartisan disillusionment with globalization is reshaping America's economic playbook.And speaking of government butting into business—it's reported that Trump personally called up Cracker Barrel, urging them to revert their logo after backlash over its redesign. We'll discuss the misstep and look at other companies that have made major branding blunders.Henssler Money Talks — September 6, 2025 | Season 39, Episode 36Timestamps and Chapters4:46: What's Driving the Markets14:27: Gridiron Gold26:47: Love Songs to Legal Clauses36:24: Sam's New Portfolio52:35: Biscuits to BacklashFollow Henssler: Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/HensslerFinancial/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/HensslerFinancial LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/henssler-financial/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/hensslerfinancial/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@hensslerfinancial?lang=en X: https://www.x.com/hensslergroup “Henssler Money Talks” is brought to you by Henssler Financial.

Interview with Tim Harrison, Managing Director of Ionic Rare EarthsOur previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/ionic-rare-earths-asxixr-us-attracted-to-magnet-recycler-7488Recording date: 2nd September 2025The rare earth metals market has entered a new era following China's April 2025 export restrictions on seven critical rare earth elements, creating unprecedented opportunities for alternative suppliers. Australian-listed Ionic Rare Earth (ASX:IXR) has emerged as a strategic beneficiary of this supply chain disruption through its advanced magnet recycling technology.China's export ban demonstrated its monopolistic control over materials essential for modern technology and defense applications, immediately creating supply shortages and price volatility. Ionic Rare Earth's Managing Director Tim Harrison reports the company has been "inundated on requests to access the dysprosium and terbium" from their Belfast demonstration plant, with dysprosium commanding three times Chinese quoted prices in European markets.The geopolitical catalyst has triggered massive government and corporate investment in supply chain security. The US Department of Defense invested $400 million in MP Materials, establishing a $110/kg floor price for neodymium-praseodymium, effectively doubling available prices to non-Chinese producers. Apple followed with a $500 million investment in recycling infrastructure, signaling corporate recognition of supply chain vulnerabilities.Ionic Rare Earth's competitive advantage lies in its proprietary recycling process that produces high-purity separated oxides using 85% less capital than traditional mining. The technology focuses on separating four elements representing 85-90% of rare earth supply chain value, enabling rapid deployment across multiple jurisdictions without mining permits or social license challenges.With comprehensive patent protection, strategic partnerships providing feedstock access through EMR, and government support across the US, UK, and Europe, Ionic Rare Earth is positioned to capitalize on the structural shift toward recycling-based supply chains. The European Critical Raw Materials Act mandates 25% of rare earth supply from recycling by 2030, creating additional policy tailwinds for the company's expansion strategy.View Ionic Rare Earths' company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/ionic-rare-earths-ltd
Michael Reinking, Senior Market Strategist for the NYSE, recaps a busy week following Fed Chair Powell's dovish Jackson Hole remarks, which fueled a market rally and left the door open for a September rate cut. He highlights political drama around Fed independence, the U.S. taking stakes in Intel and MP Materials, and Nvidia's strong earnings that lifted the AI sector. Reinking notes the S&P 500 hitting record highs with solid August gains, while warning that September brings labor data, inflation reports, and Fed policy decisions into sharper focus.
In this deep-dive episode, Ray Powell and Jim Carouso are joined by Matthew Zolnowski, former Special Advisor at the U.S. Department of Defense and President of Greyfriars LLC, for an expert exploration of critical minerals and rare earth elements in the context of U.S.-China strategic competition. As tensions escalate in the Indo-Pacific, they examine why these "rocks" are essential building blocks for both military weapon systems and the civilian economy.Critical Minerals vs. Rare Earths: Understanding the DifferenceMatt breaks down the distinction between critical minerals (50+ commodities spanning the periodic table from antimony to zirconium) and rare earth elements (those mysterious bottom rows of the periodic table you never had to learn). He explains China's dominant position in heavy rare earth processing, particularly for permanent magnets used in defense applications, while noting that light rare earths like cerium and lanthanum—used in petroleum refining and glass polishing—remain more accessible from domestic sources like California's Mountain Pass mine.Stockpiling, Strategy, and Supply Chain VulnerabilitiesThe discussion reveals concerning gaps in U.S. defense procurement, including how electronic components bypass normal sourcing requirements, allowing Chinese rare earth magnets into submarines through hard drives, while direct magnet purchases require allied sourcing. Zolnowski details the $2 billion stockpile expansion and explains how stockpiles "buy time" rather than widgets—bridging the gap between crisis onset and Defense Production Act responses.Industrial Policy vs. Market ForcesRay and Jim probe the tension between America's traditional free-market approach and emerging industrial policy, examining deals like the MP Materials contract with its $150 million heavy rare earth separation line and EBITDA guarantees. Matt argues this represents uncharted territory, fundamentally breaking with traditional government-industry relationships as the U.S. grapples with China's strategic dominance in processing and price manipulation.Australia, Allies, and Alternative StrategiesThe hosts explore why U.S.-Australia collaboration on critical minerals has remained limited despite Australia's "periodic table on a plate" capabilities, with Zolnowski noting regulatory barriers that only recently opened Defense Production Act eligibility to Australian companies. He advocates for commodity-specific strategies rather than broad critical minerals policies, suggesting successful models like heavy mineral sands operations that diversify beyond single-commodity dependence.

Nick Hodge, Co-Owner of Digest Publishing and editor of Foundational Profits and Hodge Family Office, joins me for a longer-format discussion on and the macroeconomic themes and fundamental drivers that that are continuing to push the purchasing power of the US dollar down and most other asset classes higher. Nick shares how he has been successfully “buying the dip” in gold, silver, copper, rare earths, uranium, and lithium stocks. We start off reviewing how the US fiscal policy and the Fed's upcoming monetary policy is leading to a weaker US dollar, which has been a key tailwind to US equities, cryptos, and the commodities sectors. Nick points out that the “Fed is not your friend,” and that the coming rate cuts will be further debasing the dollar's purchasing power, which is going to send real assets higher in response. We review the impacts of the back-to-back Biden and Trump administration large fiscal policy bills, that increased the national debt burden, which has been a boon to the precious metals sector, as a hedge against fiscal malfeasance and as a way to protect purchasing power. Many of the government fiscal bills passed the last few years have had provisions in them for accelerating the development of nuclear power infrastructure and uranium mining, and they have provisions included to fund boosting domestic supplies and refinement of critical minerals like rare earths, antimony, tungsten, copper, lithium, and many other strategic critical minerals. We discuss how all this attention at the federal level in the US and in many nations abroad is bringing in new investors to resource investing. With regards to the precious metals, Nick has continued building up positions in quality explorers through private placements, as well as buying larger companies with exposure to rising gold and silver prices on pullbacks. He noted the example of picking up a position in Royal Gold, Inc. (NASDAQ: RGLD), during the corrective move that played out after their announcement of the acquisition of Sandstorm Gold. Next we got into the longer-term structural supply demand fundamentals underlying the copper market, and that it has been in an upward trajectory for the last handful of years. When the recent volatility from the initial reaction to the copper tariffs to the reversal back down once there was more clarity around what precisely would get tariffs, Nick took the opportunity to exit his domestic copper producer position in Freeport-McMoRan Inc. (NYSE: FCX). He chose instead to then position back outside of the US via buying the dip in Ivanhoe Mines (TSX: IVN) (OTCQX: IVPAF), after it pulled down on some short-duration challenges. He also flagged his recent private placement into the earlier-stage prospect generator, Kincora Copper Limited (TSXV: KCC) (ASX: KCC), with exploration properties looking for copper and gold porphyries in Australia. The conversation then turns to growing generalist interest in the rare earths sector in particular, especially after the recent Department of Defense investment into MP Materials Corp. (NYSE: MP) as a key stakeholder, but also providing them a floor on their Neodymium products, and agreeing to be a buyer future magnet production. Then, shortly thereafter, Apple Inc. (NASDAQ: AAPL) made a $500M investment into MP Materials to accelerate and help fund the future development of a permanent magnet recycling plant in Texas. Nick points to CoTec Holdings Corp. (TSXV:CTH)(OTCQB:CTHCF), as another company poised to start recycling permanent magnets, also in Texas. Additionally, he highlights the heavy rare earth production capacity increasing from Energy Fuels Inc. (TSX: EFR) (NYSE American: UUUU). We reviewed the news out this week of the MOU between Energy Fuels and Vulcan Elements, focused on ex-China high-purity "light" and "heavy" rare earth oxides for production of rare earth permanent magnets in the United States, using high-purity NdPr and Dy oxides refined in Utah. This transitioned the discussion to the volatile year, to the upside and downside, in the nuclear and uranium stocks, and Nick pointed out the good opportunities to buy the dip in the sector throughout this year on pullbacks. In addition to the positive response from the multiple executive orders and fiscal bills passed surrounding nuclear power and the nuclear fuel cycle, Nick highlights that companies like Uranium Energy Corp (NYSE American: UEC) and Anfield Energy Inc. (TSX.V: AEC) (OTCQB: ANLDF) were both approved for federal fast-track permitting. Nick also highlights his recent participation in the private placement financing for North Shore Uranium Ltd. (TSXV:NSU), and how he's done well with this management team in the past on other companies, why he finds the current project fundamentals compelling. Wrapping up we got into how even the lithium space has presented a “buy the dip” moment recently, and that both the underlying metals price and the related equities have bounced and started a trajectory higher. Nick revisits the case for a company he's done quite well in during the prior cycle, Patriot Battery Metals Inc. (TSX: PMET) (ASX: PMT) (OTCQX: PMETF), as well as the value proposition for a new private placement he just participated in with Lion Rock Resources Inc. (TSXV: ROAR) (OTCQB: LRRIF).

Great Northern Minerals Ltd (ASX:GNM) general manager of US Projects Scott Downsborough talked with Proactive's Stephen about the company's strategic shift into the US critical minerals sector, following its acquisition of the Catalyst Ridge Project in California. Previously focused on gold exploration in Australia, the company has pivoted toward critical minerals, identifying the US as a key growth market. Downsborough noted this marks "the first project for Great Northern in this area and in this space", signalling a foundational step in its new direction. Catalyst Ridge is strategically located adjacent to MP Materials' rare earths operation in the Mountain Pass District—the only rare earths mine in the US. Downsborough highlighted major backing for the area, stating, "The US government has come out with some really strong support for MP Materials through a $400 million investment", with a further $500 million investment from Apple into local recycling infrastructure. Initial exploration will focus on rock chip and soil sampling, followed by drilling informed by early results. The company has also completed a A$2.60 million capital raise, aimed at funding early-stage exploration. "Over the next few weeks, we'll have a more formal plan on how we propose to start those exploration works," Downsborough added. For more interviews like this, visit Proactive's YouTube channel.

Trump counters China's rare earth minerals. The Federal Reserve is using interest rates to blame tariffs for the problems we are seeing the economy, soon this will end and the economy is going to boom. The [DS] is panicking and now the D's who are implicated are becoming angry and lashing out at Trump, Kash and Bondi. The Clinton Foundation has now come into focus. As the news unlocks the map is being created. The people are learning who the players are and Trump and team are giving the public time to digest each piece of information. In the end the people will know who is responsible for the Treason to this country. Economy DAVID BLACKMON: Offshore Wind's Mask Finally Comes Off On Monday, Aug. 11, 2025, Danish offshore wind giant Ørsted dropped a bombshell, notifying the market it plans a massive rights issue worth up to 60 billion Danish kroner (about $9.4 billion) to prop up its flailing offshore U.S. operations. The plan, which amounts to almost 50% of Ørsted's market cap, is a desperation move driven by the forces of reality and President Donald Trump's no-nonsense energy policies. Ørsted's stock took a nosedive in the wake of Monday's announcement, cratering as much as 31.2% in Copenhagen trading, erasing billions in value overnight. The panic comes as the company is scrambling to fund its Sunrise Wind project — a 924-megawatt eyesore off New York's coast — and shore up another 8.1 gigawatts of planned capacity through 2027. Ørsted says the cash infusion is a direct response to what it delicately calls “material adverse developments” in the U.S. market. Translated to plain English, this means Ørsted, whose normal business model would have involved selling a large minority share to investors to raise needed capital, has been unable to find any buyers as Trump's energy policy revolution takes hold.

In mid-July, the Department of Defense struck a multi-billion-dollar deal with MP Materials, America's sole rare earth miner, guaranteeing a minimum price of $110 per kilogram for neodymium-praseodymium (NdPr) oxide. That price floor, which is nearly double the current China-based market rate of around $60/kg, aims to incentivize domestic production of the super-strong magnets used in EV motors, wind turbines, and defense systems. Officials and analysts describe the move as a game-changer for the industry. By establishing a higher Western pricing benchmark, the U.S. hopes to offset China's long-standing tactic of undercutting prices to maintain its dominance. “This benchmark is now a new center of gravity in the industry that will pull prices up,” notes Adamas Intelligence, adding that it could bolster non-Chinese producers globally.

Jon Herold kicks off this Friday's Daily Herold with a personal update before diving into a mix of policy moves, geopolitical shifts, and legal bombshells. He covers Trump's new executive orders ensuring transparency in higher education admissions, halting wasteful federal grants, and guaranteeing fair banking for all Americans without political discrimination, tying in his own experiences with deplatforming. Jon examines the Department of Defense's stake in MP Materials and the rare earths race, pondering Ukraine's resources in a potential peace deal. Trump's announcement of a historic peace summit between Armenia and Azerbaijan sparks discussion on its ties to broader global negotiations. On the domestic front, Jon questions the Park Police leading a federal crime crackdown in D.C., unpacks a grand jury probe into Letitia James, and highlights a major appeals court rebuke of Judge Boasberg. Other topics include skepticism toward Project Veritas' Bill Barr claims, the DOJ's $50M bounty on Venezuela's Maduro, Stephen Moran's interim Federal Reserve appointment, and Israel's planned Gaza City takeover. With trademark humor, live chat banter, and a few sidetracks, Jon keeps the commentary sharp, candid, and deeply connected to the Badlands community.
Is the biggest opportunity in natural resources still ahead? In this high-conviction interview, John Waldie, Senior Portfolio Manager at SCP Resource Finance, joins Trey Reik to explain why we're still early in the resource bull market—and where the smart money is moving now. From silver's breakout potential to rare earths, uranium, and early-stage gold exploration, Waldie outlines why SCP is seeing 3x gains and why investors should pay close attention. Waldie also reveals how SCP's team moves faster than big banks: getting boots on the ground, spotting major discoveries, and financing them before the rest of the market catches on. He explains how deals like a $400M U.S. Department of Defense investment into MP Materials are reshaping the future of resource supply chains, and why silver could soon leave gold in the dust. Key insights: • Why silver could break through $40, and go much higher • How SCP identifies early-stage deals before anyone else • Why U.S. national security is driving rare earth and uranium investments • The SCP private client model: Access to private placements & asymmetric upside • What central banks, BRICS, and de-dollarization mean for gold's future • Why generalist investors haven't arrived, and why that's bullish
In this podcast interview, Tavi Costa from Crescat Capital discusses the emerging bullish cycle in the metals and mining sector, highlighting several key macro trends and investment opportunities. Costa believes we are in the early stages of a long-term commodity cycle, with gold leading the way and other metals poised to follow. The discussion centers on three primary pillars: energy sources, infrastructure, and raw materials. Costa argues that the increasing electricity demand, driven by artificial intelligence and onshoring trends, will create significant opportunities in metals and mining. He emphasizes the critical need for metals to support emerging technological and infrastructure developments, particularly in the United States. A pivotal moment Costa highlights is the U.S. Department of Defense's 15% stake in MP Materials, which he sees as a recognition of strategic material vulnerabilities. This investment signals a potential shift in how governments view critical resources and mining infrastructure. Costa also discusses the potential macroeconomic trajectory, suggesting two potential paths: a deflationary shock or an inflationary era followed by a highly efficient, deflationary period driven by AI. He believes we are currently in an inflationary buildup phase that will eventually transition to increased productivity and efficiency. Regarding currencies, Costa anticipates a long-term decline in the U.S. dollar versus other currencies, driven by significant fiscal and trade deficits. He sees this as part of a broader "domino effect" of macro trends, where acceptance of risk gradually moves through different asset classes and markets. The interview concludes with Costa identifying the exploration and development phase of the mining industry, alongside emerging markets, as potentially the most asymmetric investment opportunities of his career. He encourages investors to pay attention to the interconnected nature of these macro trends and the gradual rotation of capital across different sectors and geographies.

Interview with Mark Chalmers, President & CEO of Energy Fuels Inc.Our previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/the-next-uranium-supercycle-energy-fuels-isoenergy-on-geopolitics-mills-and-market-gaps-7209Recording date: 21st July 2025Energy Fuels (NYSE/TSE) has emerged as a unique critical minerals company, anchored by its position as the largest uranium producer in the United States while strategically expanding into rare earth elements production. Under CEO Mark Chalmers' leadership, the company operates the White Mesa Mill, which serves as a critical processing hub capable of switching between uranium and rare earth campaigns, providing operational flexibility and consistent cash flow generation.The company's rare earth strategy centers on producing both light and heavy rare earth elements, with particular strength in heavies like dysprosium and terbium where China maintains a stranglehold on global supply. Energy Fuels has already achieved commercial production of NDPR oxide and is advancing heavy separations, positioning itself as the third-largest publicly traded rare earth company globally behind MP Materials and Lynas. The fully permitted Donald project in Australia represents a significant strategic asset, offering heavy mineral sands with high-grade rare earth concentrates that can be processed at White Mesa.Recent market recognition has been driven by government support for critical mineral independence, exemplified by Department of Defense and Apple investments in MP Materials. Energy Fuels is well-positioned to benefit from similar government backing, given its proven production capabilities and strategic assets. The company's approach emphasizes building rather than promoting, with demonstrated technical competence across multiple critical mineral streams.The uranium business provides immediate cash flow strength, particularly from the high-grade Pinyon Plain project, which has delivered grades significantly exceeding expectations. With approximately $250 million in working capital and a clear pathway to scaling production across both uranium and rare earths, Energy Fuels offers investors exposure to critical minerals essential for energy transition and national security, backed by operational expertise and a diversified asset base spanning the United States, Australia, and Brazil.—View Energy Fuels' company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/energy-fuelsSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com
Interview with Darrin Campbell, President & CEO of Namibia Critical Metals Inc.Our previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/namibia-critical-metals-tsxvnmi-jv-funded-rare-earth-project-pfs-due-oct-24-5707Recording date: 17th July 2025Namibia Critical Metals (TSXV:NMI) is positioning itself as a critical player in the global supply chain security landscape through development of the Lofdal heavy rare earth project in Namibia. The project represents one of the largest deposits of dysprosium and terbium outside China, targeting annual production of 150 tons of dysprosium and 30 tons of terbium from a compact 1,500-2,000 ton TREO operation.The company's strategic advantage lies in its focus on premium heavy rare earth elements rather than the more common light rare earths. While most projects target neodymium-praseodymium selling at $65 per kilogram, Lofdal's dysprosium commands $250 per kilogram and terbium exceeds $1,000 per kilogram. These elements are essential for high-temperature permanent magnet applications in defense systems, aerospace, and advanced electric vehicle motors.Namibia Critical Metals has secured a transformational partnership with JOGMEC, the Japanese government agency responsible for securing natural resources for Japanese industry. JOGMEC has invested $17 million to earn 40% of the project, with plans to reach 50% ownership through $20 million total investment. The partnership structure offers exceptional optionality for shareholders, including potential full project funding with a 26% carried working interest.Technical development has progressed substantially through 2025, with pilot-scale testing validating the hydrometallurgical flowsheet and XRT/XRF sorting technology demonstrating significant grade enhancement capabilities. The Pre-Feasibility Study remains on track for completion by year-end 2025, with capital expenditure targets under $300 million.The recent US Department of Defense investment in MP Materials, establishing 70% premium floor pricing for rare earths, validates the strategic importance of supply chain security and suggests growing government support for critical minerals projects outside Chinese control. With China controlling approximately 70% of global rare earth production, projects like Lofdal address acute supply vulnerabilities in Western defense and technology industries.View Namibia Critical Metals' company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/namibia-critical-metals-incSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com
Interview with Tim Harrison, Managing Director of Ionic Rare EarthsOur previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/ionic-rare-earths-asxixr-pioneering-sustainable-magnet-recycling-in-the-uk-with-govt-backing-6414Recording date: 21st July 2025Ionic Rare Earths (ASX:IXR) presents a compelling investment opportunity in the strategically critical rare earth elements sector, positioned to capitalize on the fundamental transformation of global supply chains away from Chinese dominance. The company's unique combination of proprietary recycling technology, government backing, and geographic diversification strategy addresses urgent Western supply chain security needs while targeting the most constrained segments of the rare earth market.Following China's April 2025 export restrictions on seven medium and heavy rare earth elements, Ionic has experienced substantial increased inquiry for its dysprosium and terbium production capabilities. The company's Belfast recycling facilities produce separated oxides with consistent quality, differentiating it from competitors who typically produce mixed concentrates. This technology enables magnet manufacturers to achieve specific performance characteristics required for defense applications, electric vehicles, and wind turbine systems.The recent US Department of Defense investment establishing floor pricing for neodymium-praseodymium at $110 per kilogram by MP Materials—representing approximately 100% premiums—demonstrates the strategic priority and improved economics for alternative suppliers. Apple's subsequent supply agreement with MP Materials further validates customer willingness to pay premiums for supply chain security, creating opportunities for complementary suppliers like Ionic.Ionic's proprietary intellectual property for magnet recycling produces separated oxides, enabling precise control over rare earth compositions. The Belfast facility serves as a scalable template for rapid global deployment, reducing development risks and capital requirements for expansion. Managing Director Tim Harrison emphasized: "On recycling, we'll be able to rapidly deploy recycling in Brazil. So what we do in Brazil will be a natural beneficiary of all of the work, all the school fees that have been paid in Belfast."The company's focus on heavy rare earths—dysprosium and terbium—addresses the most strategically valuable and constrained market segment. Unlike mining operations requiring extensive permitting, recycling facilities benefit from streamlined approvals and access to urban waste streams, enabling faster deployment timelines.Ionic operates across multiple jurisdictions, reducing single-country risk while accessing different funding sources. The company has secured £11 million from the UK government's supply chain initiative and is progressing toward additional grant funding through the Advanced Propulsion Centre for the Belfast commercial facility, estimated at £85 million total project cost.The Viridion joint venture in Brazil with Viridis Mining and Minerals combines upstream resources with Ionic's downstream processing capabilities. The partnership is pursuing substantial funding through Brazil's BNDES and FINEP programs, with announcements expected near-term. The company has already demonstrated operational capability by recycling Brazilian-sourced magnets and delivering separated oxides to local supply chain partners.US market expansion represents the largest opportunity, driven by defense spending priorities and reshoring initiatives. The company has been actively engaging Washington DC stakeholders and potential partners throughout 2025.The convergence of geopolitical tensions, supply shortages, and government backing creates unprecedented conditions for value creation in rare earth processing. Ionic's NATO-aligned supply chain positioning enables access to defense contracts with stable, long-term pricing. The strategic importance of rare earths has unlocked government funding mechanisms, reducing traditional project finance risks while customer urgency creates opportunities for advance payment structures and premium pricing.Ionic Rare Earths represents exposure to the structural transformation from cost-optimization to security-prioritization in strategic materials procurement, positioning investors to benefit from the emerging Western rare earth ecosystem.View Ionic Rare Earths' company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/ionic-rare-earths-ltdSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

“The entire theme undercurrent in this [recent] conference was national defense. We, the United States, are going to re-industrialize because we want to be self-sufficient in critical industries, be they national defense like drones or A.I. or critical materials like battery production, and I would argue that that narrative of national defense has now permeated the junior mining and the mining world as well,” Chris Berry, president of House Martin Partners, shares in this MSE episode. The discussion with Chris revolves around the U.S. Department of Defense's investment in MP Materials and its implications for the rare earth and lithium markets. Chris highlights the significant shift towards national defense as a driver in the mining sector, the intricacies of rare earth pricing, and the potential of Direct Lithium Extraction (DLE). The episode also touches on the evolving narrative from net zero to national defense and the critical role of public-private partnerships in reestablishing the U.S. as a dominant player in critical metals. Investors will find valuable insight into strategic opportunities and potential profit areas within the USA critical metals stocks. 0:00 Intro 0:36 DOD Investment in MP Materials 5:32 Rare Earth Pricing and Market Dynamics 7:55 Global Rare Earth Supply Chain Challenges 12:28 Opportunities and Risks in Rare Earth Investments 15:22 Lithium Market Insights and Future Outlook 25:46 Oil Super Majors Entering the Lithium Market 27:11 The Role of Major Companies in Lithium Extraction 27:36 Challenges and Promises of Direct Lithium Extraction (DLE) 30:43 Comparing Hard Rock and DLE Lithium Mining 32:39 Volatility and Pricing in the Lithium Market 37:25 Opportunities and Challenges in Lithium Refining 45:31 The Impact of AI on the Investment World 47:57 Chris's Background and Services 52:01 Conclusion and Final Thoughts Chris Berry's website: https://www.discoveryinvesting.com/ Sign up for our free newsletter and receive interview transcripts, stock profiles and investment ideas: http://eepurl.com/cHxJ39 Mining Stock Education (MSE) offers informational content based on available data but it does not constitute investment, tax, or legal advice.

Matthew Miller says MP Materials (MP) making deals with the Department of Defense and Apple (AAPL) point to positive catalysts. For the DoD deal, Matthew adds that it increased the company's rare earth pricing power setting a $110 per kilogram price floor. On the Apple announcement, he said the timing was a "surprise" after the DoD deal, but believes Apple's desire to increase supply chain offerings outside of Asia made the deal pretty much inevitable.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.

Apple Backs Donald Trump in Rare Earth Minerals Push by Investing $500 Million in U.S. Mine Tech giant Apple is backing President Donald Trump in a push for rare earth minerals, and is expected to announce a $500 million investment in the only rare earth mine currently operating in the United States. Apple plans to invest $500 million in the Las Vegas-based rare earth mining company, MP Materials, The White House, meanwhile, is calling the deal a “major win” for the Trump administration. “This is a huge win for the president, who has the foresight to make this issue a priority,” a senior White House official told Fox News. “Apple deserves a lot of credit for stepping up. It's good for the country, good for American workers, and it'll prove to be good business, too.” “Other companies should take notice,” the White House official added. The deal also includes building a new recycling facility in Mountain Pass, California, which will reportedly reprocess materials from used electronics to be used in future Apple products. Moreover, Apple and MP Materials plan to build another facility in Fort Worth, Texas, to create magnets that will be used in the tech giant's products, as well as other electronics around the world, sources told Fox News.

John Kerry Admits “Trump Was Right” on Border Policy Former Secretary of State John Kerry shocked Democrats by telling the BBC that his party was wrong to allow the southern border to be "under siege" under President Biden. Kerry stated that enforcing border laws is essential to national sovereignty and that Trump's stance was not discriminatory, but correct. Federal Judge Blocks Trump's Citizenship Order for Babies of Illegal Aliens A New Hampshire judge issued a nationwide injunction on Trump's executive order denying citizenship to foreign babies born in the U.S. The White House called it an unlawful workaround of the Supreme Court's recent ruling, while some argue it may force the Court to address the issue head-on. Texas Flood Aftermath: Delayed Alerts and Cloud Seeding Concerns With the death toll reaching 120, Trump and the First Lady visit the region. Governor Abbott calls for better emergency alert systems after reports of 90-minute delays. Meanwhile, scrutiny mounts over Rainmaker's cloud-seeding operations, with Bryan reminding listeners that geoengineering remains an unpredictable and powerful force. Pentagon Buys $400M Stake in Rare Earths Firm to Break China's Grip The U.S. Department of Defense is investing in MP Materials to boost domestic production of rare earth magnets. The move is part of a broader push to reduce dependence on China and prepare for increasing demand driven by AI and defense needs. U.S. Army Quadruples Order for Patriot Missile Interceptors The Army increases its planned order from 3,000 to 14,000 Patriot interceptors due to active deployments in Israel, Ukraine, and the Pacific. However, the U.S. still depends heavily on China for critical minerals used in production. AI Pushes Students Back to Blue Books as Brainpower Declines Schools across the U.S. are returning to handwritten Blue Books as teachers combat AI-assisted cheating. MIT research shows students using AI had lower brain activity and memory retention. Bryan says this is a win for education—and a warning about overreliance on technology. Israel Confirms Trump's Iran Strike Buried Uranium Stockpiles Israeli intelligence reports with high confidence that Operation Midnight Hammer entombed Iran's enriched uranium at key nuclear sites. Only Isfahan may be partially recoverable, and confirmation from on-ground sources is pending. U.S. Bans Mexican Beef Imports as Screwworm Threat Nears Border Trump shuts down Mexican cattle imports due to the spread of flesh-eating screwworms, which now sit just 370 miles from the U.S. border. The parasite has spread northward through illegal migration and cartel-driven cattle movements. Argentina's “Milei Miracle” Gains U.S. Tariff Support Capitalist President Javier Milei revives Argentina's economy with deregulation and deep spending cuts. A preliminary trade deal with the U.S. may eliminate tariffs on 80% of Argentine exports, helping fight socialism in South America.

In this expansive episode, Ghost dives deep into Africa's shifting alliances and the global scramble for critical resources. He opens with Trump's Africa Summit, where five West African nations were invited to Washington to negotiate trade deals centered on rare earth minerals, oil, and gas. Ghost methodically dissects NPR and AP coverage, showing how Western media narratives obscure the real incentives driving U.S. outreach, countering China's and Russia's growing footholds across the continent. Using detailed maps and timelines, he explains how military coups in Mali, Niger, and Burkina Faso have created a new power bloc aligned with Russia, and why Liberia, Gabon, and others were strategically selected for engagement. The conversation moves to the Pentagon's controversial investment in MP Materials, effectively nationalizing America's only rare earth mine to break dependence on Chinese supply chains. Ghost then pivots to Israel's turmoil, exploring how Netanyahu's government is trapped between domestic collapse, far-right coalition partners, and stalled Gaza negotiations. With plenty of sidebars, on rare earth land grabs, CIA-backed coups, and the long game of economic warfare, this episode is equal parts exposé and history lesson, revealing how old empires still pull the strings behind modern headlines.

America will, once again, build a DOMINANT Copper Industry. THIS IS, AFTER ALL, OUR GOLDEN AGE! Trump Administration Takes Stake in Rare Earths Firm In Move To End China's Control The Trump administration is deepening its effort to sever U.S. reliance on Chinese rare earth supplies, committing $400 million in equity financing to MP Materials Corp. as part of a broader plan to expand domestic production of rare earth magnets used in advanced weapons systems and industrial technologies. The Department of Defense will acquire a newly issued class of preferred stock in MP Materials, convertible into common shares, along with warrants to purchase additional equity. Following the transaction, which is expected to close Friday, the Pentagon will become the company's largest shareholder, with a potential stake of about 15%, according to MP Materials. The deal also includes a 10-year commitment by the U.S. government to support pricing and demand for domestically produced rare earth magnets. The Defense Department has guaranteed the purchase of 100 percent of the output from a planned magnet manufacturing facility—dubbed the “10X” plant—at a minimum price of $110 per kilogram for neodymium-praseodymium (NdPr), a key rare earth alloy used in missile guidance systems, fighter jets, and electric motors. The U.S. imported roughly 70 percent of its rare earths from China in 2023, according to the U.S. Geological Survey. The push to reshore the supply chain gained urgency during the trade war launched by President Trump, when Beijing threatened to restrict rare earth exports.

In this episode of The Daily Herold, Jon Herold digs into the week's biggest headlines with humor and sharp analysis. He opens by unpacking the Pentagon's massive investment in MP Materials, which effectively makes the Department of Defense the largest shareholder in America's only operational rare earth mine, a move Jon calls a stealth nationalization disguised as a “public-private partnership.” He then breaks down Trump's 50% copper tariff, its national security rationale, and Brazil's retaliatory tariff threats after Trump hit them over free speech suppression. The show dives deep into Russiagate developments, including the new FISA court approvals to share previously classified Carter Page warrant documents with Congress, and Jon questions why John Durham didn't uncover what Ratcliffe's criminal referral on John Brennan has exposed. Other highlights include Secret Service suspensions tied to the Trump assassination attempt, NASA's leadership shake-up, Supreme Court rulings blocking Trump's birthright citizenship order, and Trump's newly announced tariffs on Brazil. Jon wraps up by calling for more transparency, less rainbow-pilled hopium, and a sober look at how narrative control shapes expectations.
