在全球股市暴跌的阴影下，一名投资者在收盘后盯着黄金期货价格突破4000美元/盎司的新闻喃喃自语："这波贸易冲突，恐怕只有黄金能扛得住吧？ "—— 这句话恰好点破了当前市场的焦虑核心。 当恐慌蔓延时，资金总会在混乱中寻找避风港，而这一次，A股的答案似乎指向了三个方向：黄金、稀土和半导 体。 黄金的上涨早已不是新鲜话题，但这一次的动能截然不同。 2025年10月8日，现货黄金价格首次冲破4000美元/盎司，年内涨幅超过52%。 这种涨幅背后， 是美联储降息预期和地缘政治风险的双重推动。 美银分析师甚至将黄金长期目标价上调至2500美元，中期看涨至4000美元。 中国在稀土领域的控制力近乎垄断：全球70%的矿产储量、90%的冶炼分离产能掌握在手中。 北方稀土掌控白云鄂博矿，中国稀土主导南方离子型稀土加 工，而金力永磁作为特斯拉等车企的永磁材料供应商，在新能源汽车和人形机器人需求爆发下，潜力进一步凸显。 值得注意的是，稀土管制政策不仅针对国内出口，还覆盖境外含中国成分的稀土制品，相当于给全球供应链安装了"中国开关"。 这种精准反制，与美国 的"黑名单战术"形成鲜明对比。 半导体板块的催化剂来自技术突破。 2025年7 ...

【稀土战火席卷全球！特朗普暴怒千字长文撕破脸，中国十年布局终显神威】 当特朗普在深夜推特狂敲"中国稀土断供破坏和平"的千字长文时，纽约证券交易所的电子屏正闪烁着刺眼红光——道琼斯指数500点暴跌如陨石坠地，标普 500蒸发上万亿市值。这场未开一枪的"稀土战争"，正以规则为刃，悄然改写全球科技供应链的权力版图。 前言：规则之战的致命悬念 "他们以为用稀土就能卡住美国脖子？"特朗普在文中怒吼。但现实是，当中国从十月初全面实施稀土出口许可制度时，美国企业才发现：自己引以为傲的稀 土矿藏不过是未经雕琢的璞玉——80%的稀土矿需运至中国完成精炼，而本土加工厂连高纯度钕铁硼磁体的生产线都凑不齐。这场较量没有硝烟，却比炮火 更致命——它撕开了美国"规则制定者"的伪装，暴露出技术霸权背后的脆弱链条。 正文：细节里的刀光剑影 结语：笔杆子里的权力密码 中国此次出手绝非临时起意。早在2021年《出口管制法》修订时，便埋下了"以规则反制规则"的伏笔。当美国以"国家安全"为由封锁华为、中芯国际时，中 国法律团队已悄然完成《反外国制裁法》的细则制定——不是"临时起意"，而是"十年磨一剑"的精准反制。 特朗普的暴怒恰恰暴露了美方的慌乱。 ...
