MP Materials drop raises questions on mine-to-magnet strategy

MP Materials Corp opened Monday with fewer links to China than investors may read from the drop in the stock in June. The rare-earth miner reported it had zero revenue from rare-earth concentrate in the first quarter, versus $30.1 million a year ago, since it stopped selling concentrate in July 2025. Revenue from NdPr oxide and metal was up at $71.1 million. The recent share move looks tied to the cost and timing of building out U.S. magnet capacity, not a hit to China business.

Oracle (NYSE:ORCL) shares slump as AI backlog now tops company’s market cap

Oracle Corporation goes into the July 6 restart facing an unusual challenge for the market—its cloud order backlog is bigger than the company’s equity value. Shares finished at $140.27 on July 2.
