Washington’s Greenland Rare Earth Gambit: Critical Metals Soars as U.S. Eyes Strategic Stake

The U.S. government has been in talks to take an equity stake in Critical Metals Corp, the company developing the Tanbreez rare earths mine in Greenlandreuters.com. According to an exclusive Reuters report, Trump administration officials discussed a potential deal that would convert a $50 million Defense Production Act grant into shares of the companyreuters.comreuters.com.

Lithium Americas (LAC) Soars as US Govt Takes 5% Stake – Analysts Weigh In on EV Lithium Boom

Lithium Americas 2025: Surging Stock, Big Bets and How It Stacks Up Against Lithium Giants

Spin-Off Sets the Stage: Lithium Americas underwent a major transformation in late 2023, splitting into two independent companies. As of October 2023, Lithium Americas “NewCo” took over the U.S.-based assets, while Lithium Argentina holds the Argentine operations. This separation, completed on Oct 3, 2023, sharpened LAC’s focus as a pure-play North American lithium developer. Investors received shares in both new entities, and trading of the new LAC began around $12.40 per share in October 2023. Stock Price Volatility: Post-spinoff, LAC’s stock saw dramatic swings. After peaking above $12 in late 2023, the stock plunged to ~$2.80 by mid-2024 amid a lithium price downturn. Sentiment hit a nadir as lithium oversupply fears mounted, but 2025 has seen a remarkable reversal. LAC entered 2025 in the low-$3 range and climbed steadily, then exploded upward in late Q3 2025 on game-changing news. By early October 2025, LAC briefly traded above $9.30, a new 12-month high. The stock is up roughly +200% year-to-date, far outpacing broader markets. This rebound reflects renewed optimism as LAC’s project funding and government support fell into place.
