    Yeah there are reasons to remain cautious about EV sales and ultimately the Lithium price. I read this one a few days ago.

    "China produced 110,000 new energy vehicles (NEVs), including pure electric vehicles (PEVs) and plug-in hybrids, in November 2019. This is down by 36.9% from November 2018, according to data released by the China Association of Automobile Manufacturers (CAAM)."

    "In November, Chinese automakers produced 75,000 PEVs, down by 28% from the corresponding month last year, while plug-in hybrids made up 13,000 units, down by 64.6% year on year."

    "Sales of NEVs totaled 95,000 units in November, down by 43.7% year on year. PEV sales fell by 42.1% to 63,000 units, while sales of plug-in hybrids were down by 56.1% to 14,000 units from a year earlier."

    "Over January-November this year, Chinese manufacturers produced 1.093 million NEVs, up by 3.6% from the corresponding period a year earlier, and total sales were 1.043 million units over the same 11 months, up by 1.3% year on year."

    "In the same 11-month comparison, output of PEVs rose by 18.6% to 783,000 units, while output of plug-in hybrids decreased by 18.7% to 196,000 units. Sales of PEVs were up by 11.8% to 729,000 units, while sales of plug-in hybrids totaled 206,000 units, down by 11.9%."
