In terms of light rare earths, praseodymium and neodymium oxide gained momentum last week and rose slightly after a week of price decline. On the one hand, it is due to the increase in market buying when the price fell before, resulting in some adjustment of the pricing strategy of the bearer; on the other hand, the upstream manufacturers still hold a positive attitude towards praseodymium and neodymium oxide, especially after the listing price of the Northern rare Earth Group in July was released, with the rising price of praseodymium and neodymium oxide, the market has strengthened this confidence. As of today, the price of praseodymium and neodymium oxide is 29.3-296000 yuan / ton, up 1000 yuan / ton from the previous month.

In terms of medium and heavy rare earths, terbium oxide. The price of dysprosium oxide is relatively weak and the transaction is weak. The price of terbium oxide has been rising all the way in the early stage, and the price has risen significantly under the superposition of objective supply and demand tension factors and relatively subjective factory pull factors. However, when the acceptance transaction price reached 4650 yuan / kg, downstream acceptance decreased, buying interest became worse, and wait-and-see mood gradually accumulated, leading to a slight fall in prices last week. Similarly, dysprosium oxide prices entered consolidation last week, separated enterprises in the current price of shipping enthusiasm is not high, and downstream is also just need to purchase, trading volume shrinking, trading slightly difficult. As of today, the price of terbium oxide is 4620 Muth4660 yuan / kg, the average price is 15 yuan / kg lower than yesterday, and the price of dysprosium oxide is 1860 Mui 1880 yuan / kg, the average price is 15 yuan / kg lower than yesterday.

South American Legislation Reshapes Supply, Europe Accelerates Magnet Delivery and Military-Civil Separation [SMM Rare Earth Overseas Weekly Review]
This week, rare earth prices outside China remained generally stable, with terbium oxide and terbium metal both down $12/kg. On the policy front, Argentina and Brazil advanced legislation on national rare earth strategies, strengthening sovereign resource review and local processing requirements. On the industrial front, Neo’s Estonia magnet plant achieved its first commercial shipment of EV traction motor magnets; Saudi Arabia discovered 114 million mt of rare earth-uranium resources; Ucore received additional funding from the US Department of Defense to advance samarium and gadolinium separation. Overall, the ex-China supply chain is accelerating its transition from “resource competition” to a realization phase of “policy rights confirmation + separation scale-up + magnet delivery.”

[SMM Rare Earth Daily Review: Rare earth market prices continue to run in the doldrums, with limited actual transaction volume growth] Overall, the market today showed a divergent pattern of "oxides fully stable, metals alone declining": the Pr-Nd series has seen no changes for two consecutive days, while gadolinium, holmium, erbium, and other previously adjusted varieties have entered consolidation, with only dysprosium-iron alloy and terbium metal continuing to concede on price; the transaction side has yet to recover, with buyers and sellers still locked in a standoff at low levels, and metal producers' price concessions have brought only limited improvement in actual shipments. Downstream players are mainly engaged in price-comparison inquiries and just-in-time procurement, and the actual implementation of pre-holiday stockpiling remains the biggest variable at present.
