China is secretly restricting rare-earth shipments - $MP, $UUUU and $USAR will escalate up to the Sept. 24 talks and rip if they fail.

With 21% short interest and a September 24 catalyst date, the stock could spike significantly if trade negotiations deteriorate or China formally restricts exports.
