Bulls Say, Bears Say

Bulls

Lithium Argentina will become a low-cost lithium producer generating profitability regardless of lithium prices.

Bears

Lithium prices will fall as new supply comes online faster than demand, which will weigh on profitability. Lithium Argentina’s investment in its two projects will prove value-destructive in the wake of lower prices.
