In April, even before Trump's trade war, China yanked out a handful of critical materials from the supply chain. China didn't ban outright, they called it export licensing. Among the rare earth elements now subject to 'export licensing' is Dysprosium.
 | Dysprosium is a rare earth element, and is primarily used in alloys for neodymium-based permanent magnets. Neodymium magnets are doped with dysprosium. No dysprosium, no thermal stability. No thermal stability, no magnets. Thermal stability is crucial for electric car motors, wind turbine generators, and fighter jet engines. It's also used in nuclear reactor control rods and certain types of lamps and laser materials. Due to their high-temperature resistance, Neodymium magnets are irreplacable. China dominates the global dysprosium market, accounting for 98% of the world's production. Licenses for end uses in the U.S. won't be approved now. The current price of Dysprosium is said to be $453.90 per kg. |
Dysprosium is crucial for the F-35 fighter jet, particularly in its engines and radar systems.
 | The best bet on earth is Dysprosium. Folks should buy all they can get their hands on. Thanks to senile Trump, its a bet that can't possibly fail. |
