Standard Lithium, Noram Lithium, American Lithium - Mega Demand, Mega Opportunity
The US added lithium to its list of critical minerals back in 2017. Due to the ever-increasing emergence of electric vehicles, which is tantamount to a revolution in the automotive industry, the price of lithium increased massively in 2021. Current production capacities are not sufficient to satisfy the growing lithium hunger. In addition, China dominates the global supply chain. If independence is desired, the rest of the world will have to build capacity itself. According to experts, North America could become a competitor. So today, we look at three lithium companies from the region.

Gazprom, Almonty Industries, Standard Lithium - Investing in commodities with high demand
2021 was the year of skyrocketing commodity prices. Many different factors played a role. One, of course, was the Corona pandemic, which caused many companies to cut back on production. As the economy recovered faster than expected, markets were undersupplied. In addition, there were supply chain difficulties, natural disasters, and export restrictions, and this is where some of the dependencies on China became apparent. Currently, too little magnesium is being produced because the Middle Kingdom is suffering from electricity shortages. Today we look at three commodity producers for which we expect demand to remain high in 2022.

Standard Lithium, Manganese X Energy, Daimler Truck - The future of the battery
Electric cars would never have existed with the conventional lead-acid batteries popularly used in remote controls and the like. The development only became possible with the invention of lithium-ion batteries, which can be charged much more often and thus significantly increase battery life. The advantage of electric mobility is emission-free driving. The disadvantage is longer refueling times, shorter range and the need for lithium and other rare raw materials, such as manganese. It is precisely the batteries that make electromobility so expensive. It is not for nothing that Tesla is trying to push the price down to under USD 100 per kilowatt-hour. Experts expect that the prices of internal combustion and e-cars will then converge.

Standard Lithium, Altech Advanced Materials, BASF - The super battery for 2022!
Whether e-mobility, aircraft technology or renewable energies, virtually all high-tech segments are looking for a suitable energy storage device. The development driver is climate protection, which will put mobility and energy generation and distribution on a new footing in the future. More environmentally friendly battery production processes are required to bring e-mobility to a level of efficiency similar to the most modern diesel technology, as well as a significant increase in performance with a simultaneous extension of service life. After all, what good is it if a vehicle eliminates emissions during operation but creates multiple pollutions during production and disposal of the energy cell? We highlight some of the companies at the heart of the technical revolution.

Standard Lithium, Defense Metals, Nordex - The demand for metals goes through the roof!
A possible explosion in raw material prices was already indicated in 2019. Due to low selling prices, some mining companies even reduced their mining output or stopped their exploration activities. Then came the pandemic, which put further pressure on both production and logistics, and many operations had to close for longer than expected due to adjustments in sanitation infrastructure. There is now also the supply chain problem in this already tight supply situation. Presumably, things will not get any easier in 2022 under these conditions. Which companies are making a name for themselves in this environment?

Nordex, Osino Resources, Standard Lithium: Politics as a guarantor of returns
The markets have recovered a little after the Omicron shock. However, uncertainty remains. So how to invest? Investors can look to intact major trends that are also supported by politics. This approach could create a kind of risk buffer for turbulent times. We explain what lies behind this approach and present three possible investments as examples.

Standard Lithium, Triumph Gold, American Lithium, Alpha Lithium - Is lithium the new gold?
The last quarter of 2021 is clearly dominated by the star "lithium". In the fall of 2020, all battery metals exploded after Tesla's Battery Day; this year, the political shifts towards red-green ignited the rocket for the "climate protection hype", at least in Central Europe. Gold took a back seat in this techno-hype because no one needed to hedge in this environment. However, this is surprising since the ECB announced a record inflation rate of plus 5.2%. We take a look at a selection of gold-modified stocks.

BYD, Standard Lithium, Graphano Energy: Electromobility drives share prices
After the sell-off last Friday, the stock market lights are back on green as of Monday. Shares from the electromobility sector can also benefit from this. These include the shares of BYD, Standard Lithium and Graphano Energy. In addition to a technical countermovement, the three companies have recently published positive news. BYD has received a significant order from Spain, Standard Lithium has secured fresh capital and a well-known investor, and newcomer Graphano Energy is successfully pushing ahead with its graphite project.

Standard Lithium, Noram Lithium, American Lithium, Orocobre - Lithium at USD 25,000?
A shift toward electric drive is taking place faster than expected in the mobility of the future. "The climate crisis is the greatest challenge of our time," says Herbert Diess, CEO of the Volkswagen Group. Volkswagen was the first automaker to commit to the Paris climate agreement back in 2018. By 2050, the Company aims to be CO2-neutral on its balance sheet. Despite many technical drawbacks, political pressure, public opinion, and various tax incentives are driving some car buyers to the counter for alternative powertrains. For many important raw materials, this is creating increased demand that is currently difficult to meet. We take a look at three interesting investment opportunities in Lithium.

BASF, Osino Resources, Standard Lithium - Why does nobody believe it?
Since inflation rates have been growing, central banks have placated that price increases would only be temporary and would level off next year due to the recovery after the Corona lockdowns. Therefore, an interest rate hike is far from an issue; only the pumping of unlimited money into the capital market is to be slowed down to a snail's pace. If the high inflation rates prove permanent, only one thing will help - the flight into gold.
