Great post
@GGG77. Thanks.
It's correct " For every post there's likely thousands of silent readers". I can see it from the profiles of posters whom I received likes from. Majority of them are causal posters, many of them with zero post. They are mum and dad investors. They are good people.
So a lot of people are not selling and trying to understand why we are going down.
It's very simple IMO. It's the shorters who send our stock price down as they did to PLS and other lithium stocks.
The renewed PLS offtake agreements at around $6,300/t are telling me that we will see even higher prices than $8,500/t spot price for spod concentrate next year. It's obvious. Otherwise those very large Chinese lithium chemical producers of China (inc. CATL and Ganfeng I guess) wouldn't accept to buy at $6.300/t. The lithium deficit is going to be even bigger next year IMO. The unfortunate and unethical thing is that they are borrowing our shares from our brokers and they are shorting our company which we have invested. This is considered as legal. IMO it has to be illegal. We shareholders are not being informed by our broker that our shares are borrowed by someone else. We are not getting any benefit from that transaction even though it's our assets. That is not acceptable in any terms; legally and ethically.
Anyway, the solution is not to sell anything to leave the shorters with no option but to buy back the shares they borrowed in the market back again. Then you will see how it goes like a rocket.
I am now keeping the record of shorted LTR and PLS stocks from
ASX's Short sell web page. It gives us the amount of shorts happened in previous day. Not giving all previous days. You need to keep a record.
For example the shorters sold 5.3m LTR shares yesterday. It's a lot isn't it. While they are shorting they are buying too.
Those stocks they are using for shorting are all our own stocks.When you get frustrated and sell they will buy the stock at a lower price and keep it in their accumulation portfolio. And you will end up with nothing.
OK.The solution for me is easy too. This is what I'm doing;- won't sell anything and leave them with no stock to buy later.
- I was even buying recently as I said before
- holding tight.
- being patient
- researching a lot and seeing the "battery grade" lithium market is going to be even in bigger deficit next year.
- I know well that the over supply story is an illusion
- keeping faith in my LTR investment that I'm doing the right thing.
- They can keep shorting but the it will not affect my investment decision
- The current stock price of my stock on the board is an illusion too. It's created by shorters and it will disappear.
This is stock market, others will always try to fool you.
It's your own research and decision will make you win.
The right thing is to find out and go by the FACTS.
And this is the main fact I rely on;
THE BATTERY GRADE LITHIUM DEFICIT IS GOING TO INCREASE MORE IN COMING YEARS.
THEREFORE THE LITHIUM MINERS WILL PRINT CASH. (PLS is already printing a lot)
THE SHORTERS KNOW IT WELL HENCE THEY ARE HEAVILY SHORTING TO GRAB OUR SHARES.
