The case for and against

Updated Feb 9, 2026

Bull case

American Resources Corp is strategically enhancing its competitive position through a partnership that implements blockchain technology for end-to-end traceability in mineral production, aligning with the increasing demand for compliance in government and defense procurement. This initiative not only strengthens the company's value by diversifying revenue streams beyond physical refining but also solidifies its role as a vertically integrated, ESG-friendly supplier of critical materials. Furthermore, the focus on establishing a secure domestic supply chain amidst bipartisan support enhances the risk-reward profile for American Resources as it advances into a significant growth phase within both domestic and international markets.

Bear case

American Resources Corp faces several significant investment risks that contribute to a negative outlook on its stock, including intense competition and uncertainty surrounding the commercial scalability of its subsidiary, ReElement. Additionally, the company's reliance on the extraction and processing of coal subjects it to volatility in spot pricing for lithium and metallurgical coking coal, alongside potential operational challenges and regulatory issues. These factors, combined with geopolitical risks and liabilities from remediation efforts, pose substantial threats to the company's financial stability and long-term growth prospects.
