Forbes reported as tungsten supplies dwindle, now is the best time to invest in the metal used widely in energy efficient technologies.

As quoted in the market news:

Tungsten (W) is among the the world’s hardest materials. The metal’s ability to withstand extreme temperatures – particularly high heat – makes it irreplaceable in applications such as cemented carbide tools (which accounts for 50% of its use), “hard steel” drill bits for oil and gas exploration, rocket engine nozzles, cathode-ray tubes as well as vacuum tube filaments, and (for the time being, anyway) filaments in incandescent light bulbs.  (The latter only accounts for 3% of its use.)
