Episode 6 - Rare Earths Jolt Coal: What’s Really Driving Coal Stocks?

Hosts: Matt Warder & Joe Aldina | Brought to you by the Clear Commodity Network

Thermal tightens, met holds firm near $200, and Goldman’s zero-value call on Ramaco’s rare earths sends coal equities sliding into tax-loss season. Matt and Joe dig into China’s demand bump, why high-quality met isn’t actually in surplus, and how the emerging 2026–27 U.S. natural-gas bull case could quietly lift domestic coal. They also break down the week’s equity moves and where the pullback may be creating real opportunities.

Featured equities discussed:

Alpha Metallurgical Resources ($AMR), Warrior Met Coal ($HCC), Ramaco Resources ($METC), Peabody Energy ($BTU), Alliance Resource Partners ($ARLP), Hallador Energy ($HNRG), Natural Resource Partners ($NRP), Whitehaven Coal ($WHC.AX), Yancoal ($YAL.AX), New Hope ($NHC.AX), Stanmore Resources ($SMR.AX), Coronado Global ($CRN.AX)
