S&P Global reports that China has imposed export controls on two U.S. rare earth producers. The move targets MP Materials Corp. and USA Rare Earth Inc.
Both companies are at the center of U.S. efforts to build domestic sources of critical minerals and reduce reliance. Details come from S&P Market Intelligence.
SPGI is currently trading at $407.26, notably below the MA-20 ($414.51), MA-50 ($420.40), and MA-200 ($464.00), which underscores persistent downward pressure across short, medium, and long-term trends. The Ichimoku Kijun is at $414.91, acting as immediate resistance; near-term support is at the MA-5/EMA-5 cluster ($404.29/406.53) and key support aligns at the MA-100 ($423.41), while near-term resistance is at the MA-20 ($414.51) and key resistance at the MA-50 ($420.40).
On the momentum front, MACD on D1 signals a bearish outlook, while ADX remains at low levels, indicating a weak trend. Both RSI and CCI suggest a mild bearish bias without extreme oversold conditions, while Stoch RSI is neutral. BBP on D1 shows an overbought reading (2.61), indicating persistent buyer activity intraday despite the broader downtrend. The Awesome Oscillator shows a neutral stance and does not currently reinforce any specific trend. SPGI has slipped $0.90 (0.22%) from last week's close at $408.16, now sitting in the upper part of this week's range after rebounding from a low of $393.44, with weekly volatility at 5.73%. This points to stabilization after earlier weakness.
For the upcoming week, the expected trading range is $405.91 to $409.72. Based on D1 and W1 indicators, there is a very low probability (less than 20%) of a significant price increase; further declines are more likely. The baseline scenario suggests SPGI will remain in a narrow sideways corridor, reflecting recent consolidation. A bullish breakout above $414.51 (MA-20/Ichimoku Kijun) could target higher resistance at $420.40, while a bearish break below $404.29 exposes a potential move toward support near $393.44. This forecasted range keeps SPGI well above its 52-week low ($381.61) but far from its 52-week high ($579.05), highlighting continued pressure within the broader downtrend.
Previously it was reported that S&P Global faced persistent bearish pressure, with technical indicators signaling limited upside potential. In light of recent developments, investors should watch for a shift in momentum that could alter the prevailing trend.
