Q: There are two questions here, the first relates to the abandonment of science, a policy issue. I note that HHL has recovered significantly and reportedly follows the prospects of leaders in medical science, in which Crisper also participates, that issue is now lagging and down. While this appears to be an extraordinarily cruel hit to an essential industry, question I have - is there a reason which might be ordinarily attributed to each of these related issues, and how do you perceive the outcome?



The second question relates to the price of Lithium. It is my understanding that China has closed a major supplier of Lithium and that this briefly sent the price soaring. It is my guess that this has occurred because salt has replaced Lithium as an energy storage mechanism for major - grid related - energy storage facilities, despite its lower energy density and because of its availability and cost to produce, but that Lithium is expected to be used in cars, bikes, and hand held devices because of its higher energy density/ capacity. Does this coincide with your view of the lithium industry's prospects and do you have an opinion for the trajectory for the price of Lithium?

Q: Two questions - Could I have your take on SGML recent earnings please, and (2) HHL has diverged vigorously from its past consistent performance, presumably on the Trump policy on health care, appointees etc. I assume other sector participants will likewise take a hit but would appreciate your take on the matter. The issues affecting the sector appear to relate to policy, not politics.

Q: Hi Team,

I have read your recent responses on this name...what is your level of confidence that a significant bottom was put in earlier this week? From 1 (run for the hills) to 10 (buy as much as possible)?

Unless there is something really fundamentally wrong here I think the odds are pretty favourable for the bulls...not sure I have ever seen an RSI of 8-9 like I did the other day.

Thanks

Q: I'm considering starting some positions in lithium companies. Do you think this is an good time to take positions in LAC, ETL, and SGML? If so, please suggest the order in which you would buy them - best to worst. If you have other suggestions that you feel have more potential I would appreciate it if you would share them. Thanks as always for you"re support.

Q: Hi there,

What are your thoughts on lithium going forward based on the shift towards EV and hybrid vehicles? Do you have any names in the lithium space that you'd recommend and what do you think of the ones listed?

Thanks!

Q: It appears Canada has the potential to take a part in the EV revolution, yesterdays announcemenmt from Volkswagon regarding a possible gigafactory here, and this from todays FP, "Canada has seen at least 10 major electric vehicle-related commitments totalling close to $16 billion since the start of 2021 as federal and provincial governments work to secure investments in the rapidly-evolving sector." For fun lets say all this and more happens, which Canadian companies will have the most to gain?

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?
