Personally I think there's still a lot of runway for growth here. You'll surely see losses in the short but just remember that they're unrealized losses so long as you do like En Vogue said and "Hold On!!" 😁
Do you think UUUU, MP and USAR are worth buying into at current prices or is it worth while to wait for a pullback? I believe in their long term fundamentals but can’t help but think they’re currently riding on speculation that will lead to a correction
Ultimately they will run higher. Short term is your guess just as much mine! I’m sitting on 1.4 million extra capital and every day I wonder whether to throw it in now already or ride what I’ve already got. But if you’re going long term, well -
Can’t imagine the stress. Haha. Think I’d have thrown it in at $5 mil and gone and lived on a beach for the rest of my life. Fair play for holding firm.
Feels so sad to have sold UAMY at $4 and UUUU at $10 :(
But hey, it’s my first investing year and I have so much to learn it’s crazy. At least my biggest investments are also well in the green, so it’s not a total despair.
Next time I will stay patient and listen to smarter than me :) Congrats on your gains Steve!
At least I will keep WWR as a very speculative bet.
Hi Steve, I want to invest a lump sum into this sector and I’m looking at UURAF and UUUU - at today’s prices is there one you’d pick over the other or would you invest 50/50?
Thank you. A question, I see you are underweight on LAC: are you pessimistic on incoming catalysts or just you did not rebalance your positions after the run up of bigger tickets like UUUU or MP in your portfolio?
I think it’s a long hold - we may see lithium controls that will bump it shorter term. But largely speaking lithium isn’t in as high a demand as a lot of the other materials.
Thanks for the write up Steve. I’m skeptical on Microsoft specifically since MSFT is a software company versus AAPL, who is a hardware company and has a reason to invest in MP. MSFT will need power for its data centers, but I do not see the connection to metals. There are other big players in tech so I would not discount them. I still very much respect your analysis, just adding some extra thoughts for conversation.
The rare earth elements processed and separated by many of the companies Steve listed are the base material for many of the servers you mention. They are used for semiconductors, GPU’s, etc. and the magnets are used in cooling systems, energy production for server farms (nuclear and renewable). The list goes on for miles. If Microsoft does not invest directly I could see OpenAi doing it as they have huge capital expenditures for plant build-out.
Steve - That is a great point. Sometimes the simplest answer is best. Microsoft is a big five $4 trillion dollar mega-corp. They don’t wouldn’t even conference call into a meeting they thought was pointless let alone send an executive team to D.C.
@Steve Zissou Which meeting are you referring to about the minerals cabinet? I know there was a recent meeting with tech leaders and the President where some leaders like Meta pledged to invest $600 billion to the US.
Reuters article attached was the meeting. Came back to this because I just remembered that Microsoft will also have a connection though maybe not directly to uranium as they recently invested in the revival of Three Mile Island nuclear plant for electricity for their servers. Not sure if Energy fuels will be the provider but MSFT and others are going to be investing in more and more in small modular reactors as well as legacy ones like TMI here.
So you build a thesis, buy leaps with a base of about current market price and a three year maturity. If nothing moves in three years the money is gone, if it moves, to the moon baby…., right?
Not yet I only twigged when I saw that picture on X and then remembered the potash bit in the paper. I need to do some research (and quick!) but am not like the diamond handed savant Steve in my winner picking (also a good chunk of my smallish portfolio is in Australian stock)
I did a 5 minute dive.. IPI looks like it could be a good play. Very small market cap (300m) chart looks juicy too, just had a pullback in an overall uptrend.
With the change in CEO, they are trying to make a statement: they want to be a mine-to-magnet player not just miner. Let’s see how that plays out, I have a good amount invested but trying to not look on the charts too much, the volatility is nerve-wracking 😅
BABE STEVE HAS POSTED GET THE WALLET AND SMASH THE PIGGY BANKS

Damn!
Almost sold this one today to reallocate capital to UCORE or options for something else! Of course this is also one of my smallest holdings LOL.
90%+!!!
Thank u, Steve. I just jumped in. Hope not too late to the party.

I noticed the change on the LAC trim and increased ABAT, is this a long term play or will you enter LAC again? Thank you
Hope you didn’t close positions yet! https://www.reuters.com/business/autos-transportation/trump-administration-seeks-equity-stake-lithium-americas-amid-loan-talks-2025-09-23/
👀
Steve! I followed your position downsize this morning, but I think will de-hype tomorrow. Will you re enter? Thanks for any reply 😃
I think LAC has ties with China. If so, I’ll be dropping my positions. Doing some digging
Can’t imagine the stress. Haha. Think I’d have thrown it in at $5 mil and gone and lived on a beach for the rest of my life. Fair play for holding firm.

I’m also thinking about this, not sure wether to go all in on one or the other or split
I noticed you opened a position in RCAT, my favorite drone stock! Glad smart money is on my side xD
Your our hero Steve!✌️
I only just discovered you a week ago, should’ve dived in straight away but only scaled in slowly… this is why I’ll never retire early 😭😂
Thank you. A question, I see you are underweight on LAC: are you pessimistic on incoming catalysts or just you did not rebalance your positions after the run up of bigger tickets like UUUU or MP in your portfolio?

Holy shit you are gonna be rolling in it tomorrow

Osteotome said it well - and there is a reason Microsoft was in that cabinet meeting with those critical minerals companies… time will tell!

How are you doing this? Options? I mean you‘re up almost 100x. You need to have a lot of ten baggers parallel and in a row…..
Mix of derivatives and stock - MP derivatives accounted for the first big leg up. I have 1 million+ uuuu leaps bought around a 9 price point
So timing is crucial…;-)
😉

Scamming right on the man's actual page, bold move.
Lac, uamy, MP. Judging by the number of republican congressman visiting UUUU the last 24 hours it may well be their turn soon
Can you elaborate? Haven’t heard anything about congressmen visiting them?

Interestingly the same trio also headed to a potash mine around the same few days https://x.com/RepBurgessOwens/status/1970569759415742466
And potash having been added as a critical mineral in this usgs draft paper https://pubs.usgs.gov/of/2025/1047/ofr20251047.pdf
Potash is supplied by Canada (Nutrien), probably not quite so high priority (note only 10% probability of occurrence).
Thanks, and good point. Do you have a favorite potash play ? I don’t know anything about that space.
Not yet I only twigged when I saw that picture on X and then remembered the potash bit in the paper. I need to do some research (and quick!) but am not like the diamond handed savant Steve in my winner picking (also a good chunk of my smallish portfolio is in Australian stock)
I did a 5 minute dive.. IPI looks like it could be a good play. Very small market cap (300m) chart looks juicy too, just had a pullback in an overall uptrend.
Sweet. Good to see it's got a sell analyst recommendation even better haha. May have to throw a few pennies on the fire for good measure
USAR just got a whole lot more interesting. Keeping a close eye on that one for sure!
With the change in CEO, they are trying to make a statement: they want to be a mine-to-magnet player not just miner. Let’s see how that plays out, I have a good amount invested but trying to not look on the charts too much, the volatility is nerve-wracking 😅
