Why MP Materials Is the Rare Earth Stock Investors Can’t Ignore in 2026

New York, Monday, 22 June 2026.

With a 10-year Pentagon offtake deal and a $1.25 billion Texas magnet plant set for 2028, the company is positioned to dominate a market critical for EVs and defense. Analysts see a 32% upside, but insider sales of $99 million raise questions about long-term confidence.
