Critical Metals Shares Surge Following U.S.-Greenland Security Agreement
Shares of Critical Metals (CRML) surged by nearly 39.5% on news that the United States, Denmark, and Greenland have reached a security agreement allowing increased military presence in Greenland while restricting adversaries from establishing bases there. The announcement comes after President Trump highlighted efforts to secure U.S. interests in Greenland through social media. Critical Metals is developing the Tanbreez Rare Earth Project in Greenland, one of the world's largest rare-earth deposits with high concentrations of heavy rare earth elements used in defense and advanced technology applications. Despite today’s strong rally, investors are cautioned that production at Tanbreez won't begin until late 2028 or early 2029. The Motley Fool suggests considering a rare-earth ETF for less risky exposure to the sector.
