Whole sector has been dumping since the crazy peak on 10/14. Profit taking and no news outside of the US-AUS deal yesterday which provided a brief pump. Positive news flow like earnings and government deals need to hit the headlines for the sector to move again, most likely.

Thanks, still believe in them long term (at least for Trumps term). But short-term volatility around US-China trade negotiations is too much for me to stomach when it's the entirety of my net worth 💀. Had a crazy run up then dropped 25% in 3 days last week for example. Gonna reevaluate in a month or 2 and then maybe get back in. Especially considering the $8.5 billion deal on REE's between US and AUS made yesterday (deals over the next 6 months). Still think the probability of UUUU getting a deal with DoE or DoW is high. I'd follow u/Steve_Zissouu2 either on here or his free substack and read through his posts, he's the king of critical minerals and was the reason I started looking into this sector.

Guys, this is why rare earth metals mooned today. USA & AUS signed a deal. I randomly bought a bunch of bags based off nothing other than vibes (and the fact they all mooned and I had no idea why).
