Remember Seeking Alpha article if a ban were to be compliment what would happend


Conclusion

The US-China trade war appears to be morphing into a tech war. A key driver of that tech is the rare earth elements.

What we may see next if China bans rare earth exports to the US is a rare earths shock to supply, which has the potential to disrupt part of the US high tech sector.

Should this occur non- Chinese rare earth producers can be big winners, and near term producers may see a new found support to rush them into production.

Investors need to remember the past week or two has seen a significant rally in the sector in anticipation of a China ban.

This may mean we get a lot of short term volatility in the sector, and some pull back of prices should no China ban occur. Despite this investing in the quality rare earth miners is a good long term strategy, as rare earth demand is set to outstrip supply, especially for the magnet rare earths NdPr.
