Proposed resolution: NO Actual value: 10.24 USD/kg
Rationale: All available sources (Business Analytiq, IMARC Group, and metal.com) indicate that the samarium (Sm) metal spot price in May 2026 was approximately 10.24 USD/kg in Northeast Asia, with global and Western benchmarks inferred to be in a similar low double-digit USD/kg range. No evidence suggests the Western spot price exceeded 200 USD/kg on or near May 31, 2026. The best available data is from May 29, 2026, and is well below the threshold, so the criteria for a YES outcome are not met.
