Spanish term or phrase: invertir en su extracción a la baja
El cobalto ha caído un 30% desde el comienzo de 2019, lo que hace que los precios de las acciones de las compañías inviertan fuertemente en su extracción a la baja.

I found "invertir a la baja" as short selling.

Attemtpt
...which makes companies do short selling...

Explanation:
Has put downward pressure on the shares of companies invested heavily in extracting it.

There is something wrong with the Spanish, but I think the meaning is clear.

shorting the mining stock on the back of a bearish market


Explanation:
Though it looks like the share prices are the subject of what is investing strongly, it must be as a result of such that companies are short selling the stock on a bearish vs. bullish market.

Example sentence(s):
  • Shorting a stock is a bear-market strategy that may be appropriate for some.
