Movement Alert|Tianqi Lithium Falls 3.08% in Regular Trading, Lithium Carbonate Futures Slump Amid Supply Expansion Pressure

Market Focus06-23

On June 23, Tianqi Lithium fell 3.08% in regular trading, trading at HKD 43.64/share, with turnover of HKD 60.67 million.

On the news front, multiple supply-side expansion signals weighed heavily on the stock. CATL's Yichun Jiangxiawo lithium mine regained land-use pre-approval on June 17, with the market expecting a Q4 production restart. Meanwhile, lithium mine capacity in Jiangxi and Hunan provinces continues ramping up, with domestic lithium carbonate monthly output rising nearly 50% year-over-year, reinforcing supply surplus expectations.

Additionally, Hong Kong Exchange data shows JPMorgan's long position in Tianqi Lithium H-shares declined from 14.25% to 13.86%, with institutional de-risking adding to cautious market sentiment. Peer Ganfeng Lithium fell 1.22% on the same day, reflecting broad sector weakness. The stock has been under sustained pressure since mid-June following the unwinding of supply disruption expectations tied to the Greenbushes fire incident, which the company confirmed had limited operational impact.
