Lithium Sector Overview -
.
.
From a weekly perspective, INR had a small drop, moved from 12 to 11.5. It is now at its 52 week low, so not looking good. Few weeks back someone replied to my post that I don't have any clue around INR, saying I shouldn't club it just as another Lithium stock. I accept that. I am a numbers person, and track how stock is doing, based on numbers. Its still primarily a Lithium stock, however we want to paint it otherwise. Li sector is not doing well. INR is not doing well - all based on numbers. And numbers in INR are reflecting that weakness, which I was calling. I have nothing against INR. I have played it a lot. Seen the highs of 84. So I am not prejudiced. I want it to do well. But my saying and wanting will not change anything. And anyone else who thinks others. The Li macro has to improve. Full stop. The Spot price has to improve. Another full stop. That's it. But I feel for holders. There are signs of bottoming though, but no reversal yet for sector. So lets hope something good happens soon. I am following the numbers but not much news, so may be missing something, please forgive my ignorance.

Major price action indicators -

• ALB - gain of around 7%, so very good week, and now over 20% from its lows - which is the first good indicator for going higher
• Ganfeng - Gain of around 2.5% for week, Tianqi gain of around 4% - both are over 20% from their lows
• PLS/LTR - PLS gain of 3%, LTR gain of 4% - so moderate gains
• Spot Price - Loss of over 1% for week, now a drop of 10% for the month

.
So what do these numbers say? There are no clear signs of reversal for the sector. But there are signs that it may be bottoming out. We have heard that before, so we have to be cautious. As I said, numbers are improving, but no clear signs yet around people like me who have seen it all, getting in now. But there are large number of long term holders, so for them, its a good sign. There is hope, something good may happen, sooner than later. Other reality is PLS, it made a new 52 week low of 1.07 this week. If couple of years back someone had said that PLS may go back to 1, people would have thought, person has gone crazy. Unfortunately, that is a reality. So we have to be cautious. If things go bad, it can really go bad.
.
Personally I have not been playing Li stocks. Some scalping, that's it. Gold sector is doing well last couple of years, a lazy play there would have earned a lot instead of seeing drop in portfolio. Something similar we saw 3 years back in Lithium. I am playing Uranium sector big now. I have got out of nearly all my other plays and playing the sector, besides a few goldies and couple of random stocks in REE.
.
So what may happen next week? On Friday, US Li stocks had decent gain. General markets big green. But we wait for Monday play as we open on Tuesday. Lets hope the recent trend continues. All the best.
