  • Beta to long bonds, 1 year 0.62 — shows only a loose link to bond moves for every 1% move in TLT (20+ year Treasuries), MP Materials Corp moved 0.62% on average · correlation 0.09 · higher than 58% of US names
  • Beta, last 3 months 0.38 less rate-sensitive lately than over the year
  • On the 10 worst bond days −2.34% on average against −0.74% for the S&P 500 the 10 sessions of the past year in which TLT fell most, i.e. long yields rose most
  • Latest of those days +0.84% TLT −1.29% that day 2026-09-24

Company snapshot — MP Materials Corp

MP in five paragraphs: what it makes and sells, where it sits in the Closelooknet stack, who it is priced against, why we track it, what we watch. Research diary, not advice.

What it does
MP Materials mines and processes rare earth materials in the Western Hemisphere through two segments. Materials runs the Mountain Pass mine and processing site in California, while Magnetics turns rare earths into NdPr metal and NdFeB permanent magnets. It was founded in 2017 and is based in Las Vegas.
Where it sits in the stack
MP sits in our HALO Growth 100, a growth index outside the megacaps, within the Circular Economy & Resource Security sleeve. That sleeve groups upstream critical-mineral supply with recycling and waste names, where scarcity and policy pressure are re-pricing the loop from raw material to reuse. MP is a supplier of feedstock and finished magnets to the motor, defence and turbine makers that sit downstream of it.
Who it is priced against
Closelooknet's peer group places MP with critical-mineral and resource names such as Freeport-McMoran, Albemarle and Ivanhoe Mines, alongside recycling and water names like Veolia, Tomra and Xylem, under the shared resource-security reasoning above. The market also compares it with Lynas Rare Earths as the other named rare-earth producer outside China.
Why Closelooknet tracks it
MP holds a seat in the HALO Growth 100 and carries a Closelooknet score, where momentum reads strongest and quality reads weakest of the modules. The diary has quoted it once, in a Midday 10 edition, as one of the day's sharper decliners.
What the diary watches
Whether the weak quality reading narrows as magnet output scales, and whether the stock's distance from its recent highs closes as rare-earth demand from motors and defence firms up.

MP Materials Corp (MP) trades on US exchanges, classified under Basic Materials. Constituent of HALO Growth 100.
