8月7日,美股稀土概念股盘前拉升,MP Materials涨超8%,USA Rare Earth涨超7%,Critical Metals、Energy Fuels涨超6%;美国总统特朗普将于当地时间8月7日在美国国务院召集全球部分大型矿业公司高管开会,以期采取行动,“保障美国及盟友的关键矿产供应”。
路透社的报道称,美国现正急需关键矿产来补充对伊朗战事期间耗损的武器库存。在长达5个多月的对伊朗战争中,美军大量消耗了精确制导导弹与防空拦截弹。美国国防官员和议员均警告称,鉴于现有产能受限,补充部分库存可能将耗时数年——尽管特朗普政府对所谓“弹药库存严重短缺”的报道予以否认。据五角大楼官员及防务企业透露,稀土、钨、锗、钪等矿产的供应,对制造精确制导导弹、战斗机、装甲车辆、红外传感器及其他先进武器系统必不可少。
报道称,预计出席的业界巨头包括全球矿业巨头力拓集团、澳大利亚必和必拓公司、美国自由港-麦克莫兰铜金公司、美国芒廷山口材料公司、美国稀土公司、美国能源燃料公司以及加拿大金属公司等。据消息人士称,特朗普政府计划宣布多项交易与谅解备忘录。
