Because of all the TDS, there will be shortages for all the manic-depressives who take it.

Interesting. Is there an instrument that will allow you to buy lithium as a group rather than as a single company? Or are there options on lithium?

I’ve been asking for a while where the lithium will come from to fuel all the green cars, Tesla’s big home batteries, hand tools and a myriad of other battery base things. People are dreaming if they think we can keep producing battery operated devices and add more cars. The price of a power tool battery is $130-$140 already.

Hard to predict the timing of Tesla’s collapse, but probably sooner than later.

And it happens, the price of Lithium will collapse.
