China's Manipulation of Mineral Prices: A bipartisan report from the Select Committee on Strategic Competition reveals that China has been manipulating global mineral prices for decades, posing a significant national security threat to the U.S. through subsidies and legal controls that distort the market.
Impact on U.S. Industry: The report highlights that China's predatory practices have led to job losses in the U.S. mining sector and have driven American miners out of business, jeopardizing national security and economic stability.
Policy Recommendations: The committee suggests establishing a national "Critical Minerals Czar" to unify industrial policy, create a Strategic Resource Reserve, and enhance domestic mining efforts, alongside a National Center for Rare Earths to bolster the workforce.
Increased Regulatory Scrutiny: The U.S. House of Representatives is intensifying scrutiny over financial institutions like Morgan Stanley regarding their involvement with companies linked to the Chinese Communist Party, particularly in light of human rights concerns.
