A Shareholders' interpretation of significant events in Liontown's history. Part 1 - 2016 till the end of 2019
I hope this is of interest to all holders but I started putting this together as a means for newer holders to get a quick snapshot of where we started, where we have been, and what have been the major events over the years. I also wanted people to see that fluctuations on a daily basis with the share price are really irrelevant. It is what happens over longer timeframes that is most pertinent. In Liontown's case simply holding through all the highs and lows would have been and continues to be a great strategy in my opinion.
As I was putting this together it was like taking a walk down memory lane, many of the pivotal points in the Liontown story happened in those early days. I think the real story of LTR starts in 2016 even though LTR had been on the ASX for more than a decade by then. The real story is the Lithium story and it began back when our share price was just 1 cent in August 2016. There is so much to put into this that this will be part one, taking in from 2016 till the end of 2019.
By the way sometimes the formatting doesn't transfer well from Word to HC so if some of it comes out bunched together please be understanding.
