Despite the noise, the S&amp;amp;P 500 remains range-bound — suggesting markets may not yet be pricing in worst-case scenarios. &amp;nbsp; We then dive into ISM Manufacturing PMI, which continues to show strong momentum in key industrial sectors. This macro backdrop leads into a deeper look at MP Materials (MP) — the only large-scale rare earth mining and processing facility in the United States. &amp;nbsp; With China controlling the majority of global rare earth production and tightening export controls, MP could play a critical strategic role in U.S. supply chains. Ben explains the fundamental setup and walks through a limited-risk options strategy designed to capture upside while managing risk.
