FCX
FCX jumped 3.1 percent today, and you can trace it directly to the White House. The Trump administration announced a 500 million dollar critical minerals initiative targeting domestic lithium refining, battery recycling, and supply chain reshoring — and Freeport-McMoRan, as the largest U.S.-listed copper miner, sits right in the center of that story. Copper is classified as a critical mineral under the executive framework, a designation that opens the door to federal offtake agreements and permitting fast-lanes most miners wait years for. That is the key here: critical mineral status is not just a label, it is a procurement pipeline. FCX did not announce earnings or a deal today. It moved on policy repricing. Watch whether this holds into formal rule-making, because policy trades have a habit of giving back before they deliver.
