President Obama announced on national television that the United States, the European Union and Japan have joined forces to launch a WTO case against China. The three nations are accusing China of hoarding rare earth metals.
Rare earths are used in making smartphones, car batteries, superconductors, magnets, electronic polishers, luminescent materials, lasers, optical-fiber communication systems, welding, night vision goggles, range finders and radar.
When a government says there's a shortage, it pays to listen. There's money to be made by owning Rare Earth metals. It can take up to two years before WTO decides on a ruling. In the meanwhile, this can lead to large price swings on the commodity. Unfortunately, there is no Futures contract on Rare Earth, so you cannot take delivery of the commodity. This leaves only mining companies as an trading vehicle. I'm not particularly fond of mining companies because they tend to over exaggerate their deposits and can leave their investors holding an empty bag if it doesn't pan out. These stocks are highly speculative.
