As @RodneyHooper13 and @LithiumIonBull return after a five-week break to begin @LithiumIonRockssecond season, a redux of late 2018 Velocitility has again returned to global and global emerging markets.

Despite a strongly upbeat hydroxide demand outlook articulated in Livent’s Q2 conference call and supply restraint at Albemarle, lithium equities have staged only fleeting bear market short squeeze rallies. Political instability in usual (Argentina) and unusual (Hong Kong) places, negative bond yields, Brexit/EU stagnation and Trade War “chicken” with China continue to weigh on short-term sentiment. Gold is hot and goldbugs globally are giddy.

Canaccord Genuity’s Reg Spencer and Fastmarkets’ Will Adams discuss with Rodney and Howard their views of the current state of play with lithium supply/demand, prices, the outlook for ASX shares Alita ($A40), Altura ($AJM), Pilbara ($PLS) Orocobre ($ORE) and two of Canaccord’s top junior picks that continue to outperform, Piedmont Lithium ($PLL) and Lithium Power International ($LPI).

We also comment on Ganfeng's ($1772) surprise “No” vote from its Hong Kong shareholders and what this could mean to its $450M capital raising plans and its multiple junior miner partners.
