Industry executives argue China's state-backed producers can slash prices to punish rivals, undercut projects and deter private investment.The White House declined to say whether it plans to issue any new price floors, but said it will continue to pursue deregulation, tax cuts and targeted investments in the high-priority sector \"while being good stewards of taxpayer dollars.\"Critics of price floors warn they could expose U.S. taxpayers to significant financial risk by forcing the government to subsidize minerals when market prices fall, potentially locking in long-term liabilities if prices remain depressed.Legal experts also caution that guaranteeing minimum prices could face challenges under U.S. procurement, trade and budget laws, particularly if such support is seen as market distortion or lacks explicit congressional authorization.Moving away from price floors does not preclude other steps Washington could take to bolster mineral projects and attempt to stabilize prices, including stockpiling, equity investments and local content stipulations.Other countries, including Australia, have also considered price floors for critical minerals.MP DEAL UNDER SPOTLIGHTThe MP Materials investment sparked concern from some administration officials and members of Congress that funding for a price floor of at least $110 per kilogram for two types of rare earths had not been authorized by Congress, two additional sources familiar with the discussions said.The economics of mineral markets since the MP investment have shifted. USA Rare Earth said earlier this week it intends to buy those same types of rare earths for $125 per kilogram on the open market.The MP investment, which included a guaranteed purchase agreement, fueled confusion over whether Washington would guarantee a price floor for others.As the Trump administration considered other potential equity investments after MP, it recognized that it did not have the congressional authority to fund a price floor, the sources said.That realization was fueled in part by an inquiry from members of the Senate Armed Services Committee, which asked Pentagon staff last year to meet to explain why MP Materials received price floor support and the administration's strategy around minerals sector investment, according to the two sources.A committee staffer confirmed the meeting request but declined further comment. MP Materials did not respond to a request for comment.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"UUUU":2,"USAR":2,"MP":1.96,"NB":2,"TMC":2}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":0,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":487699960558352,"gmtCreate":1760090657439,"gmtModify":1760090660722,"author":{"id":"3574046098977469","authorId":"3574046098977469","name":"intxcated","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/ec202f9bf094294aad24e56f525c03ca","crmLevel":12,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3574046098977469","idStr":"3574046098977469"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"<a href=\"https://ttm.financial/S/LEU\">$Centrus(LEU)$</a>&nbsp;","listText":"<a href=\"https://ttm.financial/S/LEU\">$Centrus(LEU)$</a>&nbsp;","text":"$Centrus(LEU)$","images":[{"img":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/f7a2f9e3c20dd22cd1a40c18da78b3b3","width":"972","height":"1631"}],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/487699960558352","isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":212,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":1,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":487699294003800,"gmtCreate":1760090611274,"gmtModify":1760091595688,"author":{"id":"3574046098977469","authorId":"3574046098977469","name":"intxcated","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/ec202f9bf094294aad24e56f525c03ca","crmLevel":12,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3574046098977469","idStr":"3574046098977469"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"<a href=\"https://ttm.financial/OPT/POET 20251024 10.0 CALL\">$POET 20251024 10.0 CALL$</a>&nbsp;","listText":"<a href=\"https://ttm.financial/OPT/POET 20251024 10.0 CALL\">$POET 20251024 10.0 CALL$</a>&nbsp;","text":"$POET 20251024 10.0 CALL$","images":[{"img":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/4553adb60f1eb0004499faabeab2901d","width":"972","height":"1631"}],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/487699294003800","isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":320,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":1,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":467077357445136,"gmtCreate":1755083640180,"gmtModify":1755091303385,"author":{"id":"3574046098977469","authorId":"3574046098977469","name":"intxcated","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/ec202f9bf094294aad24e56f525c03ca","crmLevel":12,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3574046098977469","idStr":"3574046098977469"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"<a href=\"https://ttm.financial/S/KTOS\">$Kratos Defense &amp;

A fourth would require platforms to allow users to transfer their data elsewhere, including to a competing business.\nThe House members also introduced a fifth bill, a companion to a measure that has already passed the Senate and would increase the budgets of antitrust enforcers and make companies planning the biggest mergers pay more.\nA sixth bill would ensure that state attorneys general are able to remain in the court they select rather than having their cases moved to a court the defendant prefers.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"AMZN":0.9,"FB":0.9,"MSFT":0.9,"GOOGL":0.9,"AAPL":0.9}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":302,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":487699960558352,"gmtCreate":1760090657439,"gmtModify":1760090660722,"author":{"id":"3574046098977469","authorId":"3574046098977469","name":"intxcated","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/ec202f9bf094294aad24e56f525c03ca","crmLevel":12,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3574046098977469","authorIdStr":"3574046098977469"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"<a href=\"https://ttm.financial/S/LEU\">$Centrus(LEU)$</a>&nbsp;","listText":"<a href=\"https://ttm.financial/S/LEU\">$Centrus(LEU)$</a>&nbsp;","text":"$Centrus(LEU)$","images":[{"img":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/f7a2f9e3c20dd22cd1a40c18da78b3b3","width":"972","height":"1631"}],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/487699960558352","isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":212,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":1,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":487699294003800,"gmtCreate":1760090611274,"gmtModify":1760091595688,"author":{"id":"3574046098977469","authorId":"3574046098977469","name":"intxcated","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/ec202f9bf094294aad24e56f525c03ca","crmLevel":12,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3574046098977469","authorIdStr":"3574046098977469"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"<a href=\"https://ttm.financial/OPT/POET 20251024 10.0 CALL\">$POET 20251024 10.0 CALL$</a>&nbsp;","listText":"<a href=\"https://ttm.financial/OPT/POET 20251024 10.0 CALL\">$POET 20251024 10.0 CALL$</a>&nbsp;","text":"$POET 20251024 10.0 CALL$","images":[{"img":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/4553adb60f1eb0004499faabeab2901d","width":"972","height":"1631"}],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/487699294003800","isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":320,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":1,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":467077357445136,"gmtCreate":1755083640180,"gmtModify":1755091303385,"author":{"id":"3574046098977469","authorId":"3574046098977469","name":"intxcated","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/ec202f9bf094294aad24e56f525c03ca","crmLevel":12,"crmLevelSwitch":1,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3574046098977469","authorIdStr":"3574046098977469"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"<a href=\"https://ttm.financial/S/KTOS\">$Kratos Defense &amp; Security Solutions(KTOS)$</a>&nbsp;","listText":"<a href=\"https://ttm.financial/S/KTOS\">$Kratos Defense &amp; Security Solutions(KTOS)$</a>&nbsp;","text":"$Kratos Defense & Security Solutions(KTOS)$","images":[{"img":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/570308ccbb60dcadae62d953a3e17488","width":"972","height":"1631"}],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/467077357445136","isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":48,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":1,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0}],"lives":[]}
