• Downstream buying remained limited and transactions were weak, suggesting the move is more market-driven than demand-driven.
• Softer July inflation and labor data reduced September rate-hike expectations, modestly improving sentiment toward materials and strategic-metals equities.
• Major U.S. indexes were nearly flat; holdings include Lynas, MP Materials, China Northern Rare Earth, and Albemarle, each carrying meaningful portfolio weights.
