On June 4, USA Rare Earth fell 5.43% in regular trading, trading at $26.835/share, with trading volume of $106 million.
On the news front, the company announced on June 3 that it had formally signed a final agreement with the U.S. Department of Commerce for up to $1.6 billion in funding to advance its rare earth value chain development. However, the stock exhibited a classic sell-the-news pattern on the announcement day, surging to a high of $32.80 before reversing sharply to close down 8.86% with 17.02% intraday amplitude. The current decline represents a continuation of that selling pressure.

Among individual stocks, Rio Tinto PLC down 1.78%, MP Materials Corp. down 3.33%, BHP Billiton down 1.89%, Teck Resources Ltd down 0.19%, HudBay Minerals down 0.66%.
