As mentioned in last week’s Lithium-ion Bull, @iperionx & @TalonMetals could be the ‘next $MP’ as they are among the very few critical minerals stories to have received direct DoD funding already AND because their #titanium & #nickel are extremely scarce given virtually no US sources of supply AND because the US is a big consumer of both metals.

Recall Talon is partnered with Tesla

IperionX partnered with Lockheed Martin and others.

$TLO.TO (market cap USD 250M) technically looks good just hitting 2-year high on increasing volume, but still miles away from all-time high ($0.80) when struck $TSLA deal in 2021

$IPX (market cap $1.3B) at all-time high

$MP market cap now $10.8B

Not advice. DYOR
