Q: Hi Peter and 5iresearch team
I don't have any exposure to materials. I have XBM and LIT on my list.
1. Is now a good time to start investing in materials?
2. Would you consider other ETFs/stocks (US or CAD) that must be held as a first step investing in materials?
Thank you

Q: In the name of "cutting the weeds," I'm down 20% or more on the above names (LIT:US; CTS:CA; TCN:CA; TSU:CA and TMO:US.) Are there any of them that you would get rid of at this time. Or do you think that they will have more upside from this point. If you don't like one, which would you recommend to replace it. Thanks.

Q: Do you have any stocks you can recommend in the battery space? I'm seeing lots of hype about solid state batteries and other battery chemistries. With the electrification of everything, battery tech is going to continue to evolve and demand seems to be massive.
Looking for both startups and established businesses.

Thanks

Jim

Q: Just wanted to know the prospects of LIT for the next few years. It has not been performing very well. A recent article in Globe & Mail suggest that Lithium prices may not improve till 2025. The supply of lithium carbonate is projected to double over the next three years and demand of EVs is just steady. What are your thoughts?

Q: SGML has done well for me over the past year but seems to be losing its steam. Is it time to sell or still hold or trade for something else?

Q: I own LUN and LGO as my way to play the electric car advance. However, they are also down considerably. Would you continue to hold for this exposure, or do you have better choices. Also, would you sell these for tax loss harvesting and re buying in 30 days. If so would you suggest an alternative proxy? Perhaps an ETF?

Q: Peter and Co.,
Would you please provide the 3 or 4 names of North American producers/explorers of Lithium, Cobalt, Carbon and Helium that I could consider as potential purchases.
Thanks for the excellent service.
