Spring, a similar sell-off occurred only 3 or 4 weeks ago. All part of shaking the tree and getting nervous nellies to sell. The sell-down is not just lithium, but includes cobalt and anything connected to EV and renewable energies. Big boys put doubt in our minds (ie misleading reports of over-supply of lithum), then flood the sell side, and drag as many shares as they can out of small holders. Give it another 2 or 3 weeks and the prices will have recovered and be higher than the last peak.
