Rare earth stocks have been a ticket for riding a roller coaster for over a year, but the latest descent has been particularly brutal. Downward momentum gathered steam last Thursday, after the International Energy Agency's Global Critical Minerals Outlook 2026 edition highlighted a planned surge in mining capacity well beyond expectations of refining and magnet production. MP Materials, USA Rare Earth, Critical Metals, Energy Fuels and American Resources all fell by more than 10% last week and some stocks continued to fall on Monday.
Federal support for MP Materials, USA Rare Earth, and others is rebuilding U.S. rare-earth refining. REMX, EART, and SETM ETFs offer diversified ways to invest in this supply chain.

A fight between two of the U.S.’s biggest rare-earths companies illustrates the stakes behind the effort to loosen China’s hold on the sector.
MP Materials and USA Rare Earth climbed as Beijing included the U.S.-backed rare earth suppliers on an export ban list.
The tit-for-tat retaliation comes after Washington’s recent decision to expand its military-linked company list.
USA Rare Earth is rapidly securing the domestic critical mineral supply chain through unprecedented federal funding and aggressive downstream expansions.
USA Rare Earth has finalized a Commerce Department deal for up to $1.6 billion in funding for its rapid buildout of a rare earth supply chain from mining to finished magnets. Despite the deal moving forward, along with an equity stake and warrants for the federal government, USAR stock pulled back following recent gains along with MP Materials and other volatile rare earth stocks. Along with a $1.5 billion equity offering for private investors in January, USA Rare Earth has amassed a $3.5 billion war chest of committed capital.
Rare earth stocks and copper plays are flashing buy signals or close to it amid multiple catalysts. MP Materials and USA Rare Earth are both near buy points, as is S&P 500 copper giant Freeport-McMoRan. The copper price has rallied near an all-time high as markets brace for potential Trump tariffs news, with demand already outpacing supply.
Rare earth stocks continued to snap back early Thursday after a sharp recent sell-off tied to President Donald Trump's China visit and news that Beijing would address U.S. concerns that its export restrictions have resulted in shortages. USA Rare Earth, which announced new funding from the Department of Energy, MP Materials, Critical Metals and REalloys are all climbing. Beijing's export restrictions, especially for military uses of rare earths, have fueled pricing of some rare earths that is around 400% higher outside of China than within, William Blair analyst Neal Dingmann noted in a Wednesday report.
The Trump administration hopes to spur “a new era of American innovation,” Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick says.
The Trump administration is awarding $2 billion in grants to nine quantum-computing companies in deals that include the U.S. government taking equity stakes, the Wall Street Journal reported on Thursday, citing the Commerce Department.

The remaining firms, including D-Wave Quantum, Rigetti Computing and Infleqtion, are expected to receive $100 million each, while startup Diraq may receive $38 million, according to the WSJ report.
