China’s Metals Squeeze Could Force Elon’s Next Move
It started as a whisper. Now it’s racing toward inevitability.
China just tightened its grip on rare earths - the critical materials behind magnets, EVs, AI chips, and solar tech.
In response, President Trump is threatening up to 100% tariffs on Chinese imports to break Beijing’s chokehold.
The real battle isn’t over cheap goods from China.
It’s over control of the metals that power the modern world.
And that’s where Elon Musk comes in.
He’s hinted since 2022 that Tesla may go directly into mining - not for fun, but to secure materials the U.S. can no longer rely on from abroad. If Trump’s tariffs force production back home, it could open America’s first wave of domestic silver and rare-earth mining in decades.
For Musk, that’s an opportunity. For investors, it’s a wake-up call.
Because silver isn’t just for coins anymore. It’s woven into every EV, every solar panel, every AI data center. Without it, the “energy transition” stops cold.
Already, silver has surged nearly 60% this year - more than four times the S&P 500’s 13% gain - with analysts targeting $75 to $100 an ounce as supply tightens and tariffs ripple through the system.
Musk enters a sector and prices don’t just move - they explode.

While headlines fixate on the trade war, the real shift is happening underground - in the metals race that will decide who controls the next century of innovation.
You can still get in before the next wave.
Learn how ordinary Americans are adding silver to their IRAs and 401(k)s - tax-free - before the next Trump–Musk headline hits.
Because when that story breaks… “Elon Secures Silver Supply for Tesla”… the biggest gains will already be gone.
