most laugable article of the day, a senior metals columnist is awfully uneducated, no wonder we don't have a study program to learn. there is an alternative, get yourself a bicycle. Demand destruction can help break China's rare earths chokehold https://www.reuters.com/markets/com...s-rare-earths-chokehold-andy-home-2025-06-11/ DEMAND DESTRUCTION Do new vehicles really require all the rare-earth powered technology currently being deployed in non-critical applications? An even bigger question is whether they require a rare-earth magnet even in the power train. Those companies such as Renault and BMW (BMWG.DE), opens new tab which learned the lesson from the past have developed alternative solutions, opens new tab for their EV motors, reducing the impact of the current supply shock. Plenty of other car companies have been looking to do the same, but in most cases the technology is still far from commercial production. China's latest rare earths restrictions should be a powerful incentive to accelerate the redesign process. Automakers may find engineered demand destruction works faster than building a new supply chain when it comes to escaping China's chokehold on rare earth magnets. It's not as if they haven't done it before.
Maybe they can get Rocketman Elon to bring back some rare-Mars metals instead. Only cost a few trillion he ... didn't save ... from his slash and burn episode.
