Problem is not EV's, lithium, raising capital etc... it's the non-stop undermining so-too-speak of short sellers, day traders and the like trying to make a quick buck at everyone else expense because they add <= 0 to any future innovation. In a sense they're in it for themselves and nothing else and would gladly help destroy an industry if they could to line their own pockets. This is the sort of people we're up against.
Yes, it's hard enough to raise capital etc to fund projects worth 100's of millions of dollars when there are those trying to discredit and ambush every opportunity because as we no these projects are not 100% risk free.
Noticed the shorts have grown by 1.5% for the few cents that were pushed down, hoping they're over 17% when news comes cause I'll be dropping a large chunk on some more shares.
