Sandy but your bagging Graphite on the commodity thread?
This might be the reason we are seeing a bit of weakness in Graphite
Graphites main future demand is from smart batteries in smart tech and hybrid cars as the Graphite is a key component in Lithium Ion batteries
However looks like theres a possibility that batteries of the future will be made from pure Lithium to make them last 4x longer
which if true could put a big dent in the expected Graphite demand

'Holy Grail of batteries' discovered: Scientists invent pure lithium cells that may mean phones last FOUR times longer
- The breakthrough, by engineers from Stanford University, California, could revolutionise technology from electric cars to smartphones
- They created the first functioning lithium anode in a lithium battery
- Engineers invented a protective film composed of carbon nanosheres to protect the lightweight, conductive material from cracking as it expands
- Discovery could lead to consumer electronics with a longer battery life and electric cars with far greater ranges
