Trading Idea of the Day
 

ASX:CXO - Core Lithium Ltd - (NEUTRAL BIAS - long term & BEARISH BIAS - short term)

  • Key levels on the chart - consider taking trades from key support/resistance zones. 
  • Goldman Sachs initiates a Sell rating on Core Lithium
  • The investment bank expects lithium prices to begin falling in the second half of 2023.
  • Chinese EV subsidies have pulled forward battery demand by at least 12-24 months, according to Goldman. The team believes the battery maker overcapacity, on the back of accelerated capacity build-out amid a decelerating growth of new energy vehicles sales will eventually weigh on lithium prices," the analysts said.
