Joe and Emily sit down with Henry Sanderson of the Financial Times, one of the lithium industry’s most reliable voices. In a typical X-Men fashion, Henry shares his origins story involving Hong Kong during the handover and Beijing during the Olympics. Although he didn’t get superpowers, Henry explains how the daily reality of pollution inspired his interest in electric vehicles and a green energy future.

What role will oil companies and mining companies play in this future? The three look at the London Metals Exchange and other efforts to standardize pricing. They compare and explain the general sentiment surrounding stocks. There may be some challenges with forecasting, but these three heroes can take on pricing and institutional money.
