Rare Earth Prices Show Mixed Changes; Pr-Nd Weakens While Ho-Er Rises Against the Trend [SMM Rare Earth Daily Review]

[SMM Rare Earth Daily Review: Rare earth prices mixed; Pr-Nd weakens while holmium and erbium buck the trend upward] In the short term, the Pr-Nd series may continue to consolidate on a subdued note amid insufficient transaction follow-through and loosening upstream quotes, with stabilization depending on the pace of downstream order releases.

Terbium and dysprosium are likely to remain largely stable in the short term.
