harsharamesh(@harshavramesh):America's biggest advantage in the race for critical materials isn't a mine. It's our financial markets. This week @PillarHQ, SIG, and @Kalshi completed the first exchange-traded tungsten hedge for an Ohio metals distributor. Tungsten goes into munitions, jet engines, and the carbide cutting tools on every factory floor. China produces about 80% of it and exports only to 15 companies. Pentagon rules bar Chinese tungsten from key military uses from 2027. APT prices are up more than 500% since the controls began. American manufacturers can't wait for new mines to protect their margins. With Pillar, they don't have to. Bloomberg has the full story. Link below.
