OTC PINK OTC PINK Primary Summary
Iluka Resources: Overvalued, Sell With A Close Eye On Political Developments
Iluka's recent stock surge is driven by rare earths excitement, not its core mineral sands business. MP Materials' US government-backed price guarantees benefit them, but likely disadvantage non-guaranteed producers like Iluka. Unless Iluka secures similar political guarantees, its rare earths business faces lower prices and reduced market opportunity.
