Hi Aussie,
In recent years, the demand for lithium has increased due to the growth of electric vehicle (EV) production and the expansion of renewable energy storage systems. As a result, many lithium mining and production companies have experienced significant growth in their stock prices.
In the first quarter of 2023, some factors that could potentially impact lithium stocks include:
1. EV demand: The demand for electric vehicles is expected to continue growing, which could increase the demand for lithium and positively impact lithium stocks.
2. Government policies: Government policies and regulations can have a significant impact on the lithium industry. For example, policies that support the growth of renewable energy and EVs could be beneficial for lithium stocks.
3. Global economic conditions: Economic conditions can impact the demand for lithium, as well as the prices of other commodities. Economic uncertainties, such as inflation or geopolitical tensions, could potentially impact the stock prices of lithium companies.
Two questions should be considered when choosing lithium stocks.
One consideration is whether you wish to invest in lithium startups or more established companies? A general principle is high risk, high reward.
Other factors to consider include whether you want to invest in companies that produce lithium itself, or manufacture products, such as lithium battery makers and lithium recycling stocks. For miners, success is based on the price of lithium. For manufacturers, price and demand for lithium goods are important.

In its annual results for 2022, the company posted a huge 577% increase to AU$1.2 billion, along with an operating profit after tax of AU$562 million. The company’s spodumene shipments have increased by 28% over the previous year. The company also launched Battery Material Exchange (BMX), which is a platform for trading spodumene concentrate. With this, it is able to benefit from much higher prices through auctions. @Tiger_AU
