As we speak, China and the E.U. are going through negotiations on the particulars of the tarrifs that were announced last week on Chinese EV's. This morning, China just announced a new rare earth "product flow mandate" (https://www.reuters.com/markets/commodities/china-issues-rare-earth-regulations-further-protect-domestic-supply-2024-06-29/) . That mandate can be looked at as a precursor to any rare earth restriction (trace the flow, then cut off the flow).
Clearly this says something about how well those negotiations are going, right? And China must be introducing this wrinkle to influence the ongoing negotiations-- driving a harder position.
But what if Ucore suddenly appears on the scene riding a tall white horse-- making an announcement that a company outside of China has this exceptional new processing capability? Suddenly the Chinese and Europeans negotiation has a new disruption-- and a good kind.
Now would be an opportune time for Ucore to strike! Put aside the significance of July 3rd that I have already spoken of. For the sake of the EU-China negotiations that are going on RIGHT NOW, it would be a masterstroke for Ucore to release big news about its technology in the next week. Ucore would effectively be situating itself in those negotiations.

P.S. Ucore should really be paying me for all the free and brilliant advice I keep providing it, don't you think?

P.S.S. We are all going to be rich! Super rich!!!
