Bottom Line

• VanEck Rare Earth and Strategic Metals ETF (REMX) offers a potential trading opportunity for a 5% gain over the coming weeks.
• REMX appears poised for a breakout above its $64.01 52-week high after closing at $60.92 on 5 September 2025.
• On 8 September 2025, I plan enter a One-Triggers-Other (OTO) order to:
  • Buy REMX at a limit price of $60.92, and if that order executes in full, then
  • Activate a secondary order for a 3% trailing stop loss

Macro Trend

• Increased US government investment in critical minerals will prop up REMX.
• There is a strong economic demand for rare earths in the coming years, mainly because they are crucial for national security.
• The One Big Beautiful Bill sets aside $7.5 billion for the Department of Defense to strengthen the US minerals stockpile and improve supply chain resilience through direct critical minerals funding.
