Even JL acknowledges, that the spodumen is piling on the doorsteps of the converters, as long as it is piling, no WA-Producer will be profitable. He is even putting bets on his TW account if MT Cattlin is going under the blanket again. I took the profits and will wait out the fall, all ears on China.
My wishful thinking, feel free to comment:
- The WA production will take the bulllet, SP on 2015 levels (Ganfeng and Tianqi already are).
- The big five will ramp down production.
- The big five will(should) acquire the majority of the WA production and teach them how to do business. No more cake, that the converters cannot swallow.
- China (and this is hoping) ramps up their subsidies on EV production and electricity storage.
- Spodumen prices will get to 2015 levels.
I would wait for that ramp-down, however it all depends on China.
