Lithium Price Breakout

Written By Luke Burgess

The price of lithium is breaking out!

And from here, prices for the energy metal are set to absolutely explode!

You absolutely will not want to miss out on this opportunity. Lithium could very well turn out to be one of the biggest sleeper investments of the year. And in just one minute, I’ll tell you exactly how to start investing today.

But first, take a look at this chart…

The price of lithium has increased over 50% since the beginning of the year. But this is only the beginning. And that’s simply because the market is positioned to see a torrential flood of new demand for the energy metal, putting lithium in the catbird seat for outrageous gains.

Not long ago, lithium was hot. Everyone was talking about it. Lithium was on the cover of every magazine and newspaper in the country. The talking heads on CNBC and other financial media wouldn’t stop discussing it. My parents were asking about it.

But today, only smart investors are still paying attention. Most of the market is distracted by Bitcoin, Antifa, or some other such nonsense. But while they chase invisible coins and spin their wheels bickering with each other, we should be taking this opportunity to quietly invest in the real future they’re ignoring: lithium.

The truth is, all of the hype surrounding lithium was, and still is, very well deserved. Lithium is nothing less than the energy metal of the future. And already, the metal has changed the way we live. There’s no doubt you’re surrounded by lithium right now. It’s in your cell phones, laptops, tablets, digital cameras, power tools… basically anything with a battery.

But the lithium-ion market is still rapidly expanding. According to a new report, the global lithium-ion battery market is expected to grow from $22 billion last year to nearly $100 billion by 2025!

There’s no doubt we’re still in the very early stages of the lithium revolution. And it’s one that’s being driven forward by the proliferation of electric vehicles.

The Era of the Combustion Engine Is Ending

The steam engine was great. But the fossil fuel combustion engine replaced it with more power and better efficiency.

Soon, the fully electric engine will replace the combustion engine with even more power and better, cleaner efficiency.

And every single one of them will be lithium-dependent. One electric car requires about 3,000 times the lithium needed for an average cell phone.

Just last week, China (the world’s largest automotive market since 2008) announced plans to end the production and sale of all fossil fuel vehicles. As a result, investors put over $40 million into Global X Lithium ETF (NYSE: LIT) last week.

But China isn’t the only country with plans to ban fossil fuel engines. In July, Britain announced that it plans to ban the sale of fossil fuel vehicles by 2040. Two weeks later, France announced a similar goal. Meanwhile, Norway and the Netherlands are currently considering plans to end the sale of diesel- and gasoline-fueled cars.

The rest of the world is soon going to follow suit. The lithium-ion revolution is in full swing. But supply of lithium is expected to remain tight for the next several years. Just look at the U.S. Department of Energy’s projections for supply and demand:

All this puts today’s investors in an incredible position to profit. Energy Investor editor Keith Kohl tells me, “I haven’t stopped watching the lithium market since it first popped years ago. But right now we’re looking at an upheaval in demand for lithium. Today’s investors will be tomorrow’s millionaires.”

Keith recently put together an entire report on this explosive market, which you can check out here. In the report, he explains in much fuller detail the opportunities in lithium and lays out his three “Lithium Mega Plays.”

I highly urge you to read this report as soon as possible and act today.

Again, this is an opportunity you’re not going to want to miss out on. We’re sitting at the dawn of a major paradigm shift. The revolution is happening now. And it won’t wait for you.

Don’t get left behind.

Until next time,
