In my post on Wednesday 24th September I was looking at the possibility that the low on that retracement had been made and giving the obvious targets below in the event that Bitcoin (BTCUSD), Solana (SOLUSD), and Ethereum (ETHUSD) went lower.

So What Happened on Friday?

By -

US stock markets fell hard on Friday after President Trump reacted to new export restrictions on rare earth metals from China with a threat to add a further 100% tariff on imports from China in addition to the 57% tariff currently in force. Trump walked back that threat over the weekend and at the time of writing futures have rallied about 50% of the decline from Friday’s lows before pulling back somewhat.

So what is the rare earths issue about? Well for those who don’t already know, rare earths are vital for a lot of manufacturing of complex machinery such as cars, jet engines, nuclear reactors & LEDs, are also important in oil refining, and are vital for a lot of high tech manufacturing such as computer components, smartphones, high performance batteries etc. There is a good page about rare earths on wikipedia here which is worth a read.
