# Weekly Recap | MPL.US this week, most brokers rate it buy

## The Week

MPL.US last traded at $15.950 and the instrument is shown as Delisted. Weekly price data is unavailable, so there is no weekly percentage change or close to report for this ETF. Without intraweek daily bars, the week’s trading pattern cannot be described.

## MP Materials This Week

MP Materials (MP) fell 6.43% this week to close at $47.26. The underlying stock opened Monday at $49.77, peaked at $51.74 intraday, then faded through the week and closed Friday at the week’s low of $47.26. Amplitude was around 9%, with total weekly volume of 26.3m shares.

## Leverage & Decay

MPL.US is a daily target 2X long MP ETF, meaning it aims to replicate twice the daily move of MP Materials, not twice the weekly move. With daily rebalancing, a choppy up-then-down path in the underlying can magnify cumulative decay, so holding this ETF over time is not the same as earning two times the underlying’s periodic return.

## MP Materials News

This week’s MP Materials headlines cluster around two themes. First, valuation: one market view flagged that MP looked above fair value after its 142% run. Second, ownership and M&A: the California State Teachers Retirement System disclosed a $516.73 million position in MP Materials, and Reuters reported on Friday that China Rare Earth Group is in talks to buy MP Materials shareholder Shenghe Resources. A weekly recap also noted MP Materials fell 6.43% with most brokers rating it buy.

## MP Materials — Analyst Ratings

As of 18 September 2026, 19 institutions cover MP Materials: 13 rate it strong buy, 5 buy, and 1 hold, with no underperform or sell ratings. The consensus rating is strong buy and the consensus target is $74.29412, about 57.2% above the spot price of $47.26. Targets range from $57.00 to $100.00, indicating a wide dispersion across analysts. Within the diversified metals and mining industry, the stock ranks second out of 64 covered institutions.

## The Week Ahead

Macro data next week includes the Richmond Fed composite index on 22 September, EIA crude and Cushing inventories on 23 September, and jobless claims, the current account balance, new home sales, and natural gas storage on 24 September. For MPL.US, the main watchpoint remains MP Materials itself, especially any follow-up on the acquisition talks and the amplified impact of underlying price swings on this leveraged product.

## In Short

With no weekly data for MPL.US itself, the story this week is really about MP Materials. The underlying fell 6.43%, yet the analyst picture remains strong-buy with a consensus target well above spot. At the same time, the market is questioning valuation after a 142% run, while acquisition talks add another layer of uncertainty. What matters next is whether MP can stabilise near $47 and whether the M&A angle reshapes how institutions value the stock.
