Goldman Sachsin analyysi litiumin markkinoista. Lithium: The short trade must go on. "The lithium market has seen a renewed bear market shift with prices falling 19% over the past 4 weeks (and a 73% fall YTD). Indeed, the softening in the lithium market has become incrementally apparent with the slowdown in demand growth now in direct contrast with growing global lithium supply. Chinese EV sales and battery output have continued to rise, but a phase-out of subsidies and supply chain normalisation have weighed on the pace of growth and as a result, Chinese lithium battery demand volume growth has slowed down materially." #kriittisetmateriaalit #akkumateriaalit #litium Lithium: The short trade must go on (gspublishing.com)

In the face of a minimal downtrend in the S&P/ASX 200 Index, certain companies stand out with notable uptrends. Chrysos Corporation Ltd is on the rise with a 6% increase in share price, Hansen Technologies Limited sees a 2% bump potentially influenced by an optimistic broker note from Goldman Sachs, Pantoro Ltd approves a substantial expansion program for the Norseman goldfield, and WA1 Resources Ltd impresses with promising results from metallurgical testwork. 📈 While the general market may exhibit a subtle downward trend, these examples demonstrate the potential for strategic advancements and positive industry developments to elevate company shares. 👀 For investors and analysts, these gains are a signal of underlying strengths and emerging opportunities worth watching. 💡✨ Read more about their strategies and future prospects here: https://lnkd.in/gM-9TfCS #Investing #ASX #StockMarket #SharePrices #MarketTrends #Finance #EconomicInsights

🔆The McClintock Group  keeps asking for reasonable disclosures, and answers on the conduct of the management and the board of Blue Moon Metals Inc. To date the shareholders have not received any adequate response to these matters. ⏺ Who did the CEO sell 7 million shares to in Oct 2022? ⏺ Why is the management and board resisting disclosing this information? ⏺ What was the purpose of this sudden sale?  ⏺ Why was the sale conducted significantly below market value? ⏺ Why was the sale done just prior (3.5 months) before a snap un-warranted 10:1 share consolidation was announced in early February 2023? 🔆The managment and board have issued ⬆️65% of new shares (all below market pricing) since we first began asking questions.  The financings were done at a significant discount from the previous day closing price. These placements have been issued to members of management, the board, and to undisclosed parties. ⏺ Why didn't the board open these financing to existing shareholders? ⏺ Why does the board continue to refuse to disclose who participated in the last two financings? ⏺ Why were the May 8th, and June 15th financings announced closed- a first in Blue Moon Metals Inc. 's company history! ⏺ Why was the May 8th financing announced and closed within 2 weeks of the McClintock Group 's Open Letter to Shareholders in which Michael McClintock, P.Eng. put forth himself to serve CEO for $1/year as part of a plan to get the company back on track? ⏺ Why did the board use these clearly defensive financings (in our opinion) that have acted to oppress the existing shareholders in the August 1st AGM? ⏺ When will the board be willing to cooperate and respond adequately on these matters? 🔆The McClintock Group believes shareholder right's matter. It is important that shareholders have answers to these and other questions. Transparency is essential for investor confidence and is a fundemental part of ensuring there is capital and liquidity in the junior mining space. #management #mining #tsxv #transparency #investing #zinc #copper #gold #silver #governance #ethicsmatter #ethos
