Demand is growing at a mid-teens percentage, due to higher global electric vehicle sales and the buildout of energy storage systems. However, a wave of new supply exceeded demand growth driving prices down.

Bulls Say, Bears Say

Bulls

Lithium demand would remain resilient, driven by vehicle electrification and the lag in new supply to meet demand growth. The lithium price is expected to recover from the current low level in the next few years.

Bears

Decrease in the price of lithium products or changes in the current and expected supply/demand dynamics of lithium would significantly affect Tianqi’s profitability, resulting in volatility and uncertainty in earnings forecast.
