Ford CEO says rare earths shortage forced it to shut factory
What is samarium, the rare earth element at the center of U.S.-China trade talks? Ford CEO Jim Farley said that a rare earth minerals shortage is hurting production and caused the automaker to temporarily shut down one of its plants last month, according to an interview with Bloomberg TV. Rare earth minerals, which are a set of 17 metallic elements, are integral to automobile production, and enable features like windshield wipers, seat belts and speakers to function. About 90% of the U.S.'s rare earth minerals come from China, the world's largest producer of rare earths, according to data from the Geological Survey. China has leveraged its grip on rare earths and their widespread utility amid a trade war with the U.S. In April, Beijing announced greater export controls on the materials — a sticking point in tariff negotiations — along with other retaliatory trade measures. The controls require businesses to apply for a license to export rare earths, which U.S. automakers say they have been struggling to secure. Earlier this week, on June 11, following two days of discussions in London, U.S. and Chinese negotiators struck an agreement under which Beijing would resume regular exports of rare earths to the U.S. "The centrality of rare earth export restrictions to the trade deal underscores the criticality of minerals to the U.S. economy as well as the severity of the chokehold Beijing holds on global supply chains," policy experts from the Center for Strategic and International Studies wrote in a research note. "Hand-to-mouth" Farley said the slowing flow of the critical minerals into the U.S. has presented a challenge for Ford. "It's day to day," he told Bloomberg TV Friday. "We have had to shut down factories. It's hand-to-mouth right now." Ford did not immediately respond to CBS MoneyWatch's request for comment. Ford CFO Sherry House addressed disruptions caused by new restrictions on rare earth minerals from China at a June conference. "There are many components that rare earth minerals are in. And any of those that are coming from China require you to now go through export control," she said. "And so there's an additional layer of administrative process that has to happen." The process isn't reliable, she added, noting that sometimes it goes "really smoothly," while other times applications are not approved quickly. "Most frequently, it goes through; it just may take more time," she said. For now, Ford is able to manage the cumbersome process, House said, but added that it has the potential to become a "larger issue for us." Farley also told the outlet that he is optimistic about the developments in trade talks between the U.S. and China, and hopes that rare earth supply constraints will ease soon. He added that Ford is awaiting approval of applications with China's Ministry of Commerce to export more rare earths. "We have applications into MOFCOM and they are being approved one at a time," Farley told Bloomberg TV.

PayPal Holdings (NasdaqGS:PYPL) Expands Insurance Payment Solutions With Input 1 Partnership
PayPal Holdings recently announced a collaboration with Input 1 to integrate its Digital Wallet for insurance premium payments, enhancing user payment convenience and security. During the last quarter, the company's stock price increased by 9%. This rise was likely influenced by several strategic partnerships, including Selfbook for hotel bookings and a Mastercard collaboration, enhancing PayPal's service integration and brand reach. Despite market volatility due to geopolitical tensions and fluctuating oil prices impacting broader indices, these developments in PayPal's business activities supported the company's positive stock performance alongside market trends. Buy, Hold or Sell PayPal Holdings? View our complete analysis and fair value estimate and you decide. The latest GPUs need a type of rare earth metal called Neodymium and there are only 24 companies in the world exploring or producing it. Find the list for free. The recent developments at PayPal Holdings, including the collaboration with Input 1, could further facilitate the company's progression towards becoming a comprehensive commerce platform. As PayPal integrates its Digital Wallet for insurance premium payments, user convenience and security are enhanced, potentially driving transaction volumes and strengthening merchant relationships. This move complements PayPal's ongoing transformation initiatives, which focus on expanding its branded experiences, Venmo benefits, and other value-added services, potentially improving both revenue and earnings in upcoming quarters. Over the last year, which ended on 13th June 2025, PayPal's total return, combining share price and dividends, reached 21.56%. This performance contrasts with a 1-year underperformance relative to the US Diversified Financial industry, which returned 24.5%. Despite the stock overshadowing the broader US market's one-year return, this discrepancy highlights a complex competitive landscape. The boost in PayPal's stock price in the recent quarter, driven by collaborations with Selfbook and Mastercard, aligns with analysts forecasting revenue growth at a compound annual rate of 5.7% over the next three years. Analysts foresee earnings growth to US$5.5 billion by 2028, slightly above the current revenue of 31.89 billion and earnings of 4.55 billion. However, these projections are sensitive to macroeconomic challenges and regulatory changes that could impact PayPal's financial trajectory. The company's current share price of US$68.05, which represents a discount of around 9% to the consensus price target of US$81.74, suggests potential upside, provided that PayPal continues to leverage its commerce platform to enhance earnings and revenue growth effectively. This target reflects expectations of a price-to-earnings ratio alignment with the industry average, offering a potentially compelling case for investors if forecast assumptions materialize as expected.
