-- Wedbush週一發布的研究報告指出，金屬公司（TMC）在深海多金屬結核採集領域的先發優勢目前被低估。 報告稱，在克拉里昂-克利珀頓海域，在政府的大力支持下，商業化生產之路清晰且加速推進。 分析師寫道，該公司向美國國家海洋暨大氣總署（NOAA）提交的許可申請已於3月被認為基本上符合規定，並預計在未來12個月內獲得許可。 該公司獲得了德克薩斯州布朗斯維爾結核加工中心的獨家租賃權，Wedbush表示，這是與美國政府建立合作關係的“關鍵前提”，並可能推動該股重新估值。 Wedbush預計，該公司至少在未來12個月內將擁有充足的流動性。 該券商表示，維持對該股的「跑贏大盤」評級和8美元的目標價。
