However, Huayou and CATL would have been dissatisfied with a clearly stated higher SP target.
It is all about maintaining a working balance in a domain that has a breadth of interests, depending on which side of the fence you are sitting.
This does not mean that JNS will cap its role to 30c. Anything can happen. Lets bear in mind that this type of promotional agreements could be justifiably amended down the track.
JNS's involvement is a tactic that is primarily aimed at counterbalancing the SP capping and eventually will accelerate the TO offers.
I do not believe that North Americans will finally get hold of this, as AVZ sits functionally within the Chinese sphere of interest, as they already have invested heaps in our direction. That said, when you call a bluff there is a reason. In this case, we create our own stalling tactics for SP to appreciate upon gradual realise of drilling results. The same drilling results that on one hand are offering de risking to the Chinese, and potentially giving them time to play hard to get and suppressing SP, on the other. I think JNS's involvement will bring this to a head earlier than anticipated, for obvious monetary reasons.

Good point.
so much to think about with this latest announcement. Klauss is proving to be a shrewd businessman. 11am 2 days to Christmas and all I can think about is this latest announcement. I better give it a rest, just sit back and relax. Merry christmas everyone.
