Dear reader,

Elon Musk can move fast.

But he cannot move January 1, 2027.

That is when a U.S. defense-sourcing restriction involving certain covered magnets and strategic materials is set to expand.

Dr. Mark Skousen spent three years inside CIA headquarters studying pattern recognition, has analyzed markets for 45 years and called the SpaceX listing months before the mainstream press caught on.

Now he believes this deadline could expose a dangerous weak link inside Musk’s empire.

See the evidence behind the $4 billion minerals company inside Musk’s supply-chain gap.

The company is pursuing a deep-ocean resource estimated at roughly $16 trillion.

Its work has attracted relationships with major industry names including Allseas, Korea Zinc and Glencore.

And the regulatory story is moving now: a NOAA hearing is scheduled for October 13, followed by an October 19 public-comment deadline.

The company has submitted applications. Approval is not guaranteed.

But the contrast is difficult to ignore: an approximately $4 billion company pursuing a resource measured in the trillions, just as Musk may need tighter control over critical inputs.

By the time January 1 makes that vulnerability obvious, this stock may no longer be hiding in plain sight.

Watch Dr. Skousen’s briefing on the $4 billion company before the October milestones and January deadline.

Good investing,

P.S. A roughly $4 billion market value. An estimated $16 trillion resource. And a January 1 deadline Musk cannot change. Join Dr. Skousen for the full case, and he will also name a stock pick in the briefing.

Watch the full case and the stock pick.
