$SQM should buy Western Lithium in Nevada and help build the giga factory for Tesla. Not sure if Nev is where they are going. Anyone know yet??
How to understand this 2Q earnings ? So what ? Where is the bottom ?

SQM has been taking a huge BEATING since I last posted here..... Wheres the bottom?????
I will take the last post back, looks like a run in the making...http://www.analystratings.net/stocks/SQM/
I doubt it there's been a lot of dumpage in the accum... And the MFI is weak could go lower broke the support level in 40... The Macd is curling up also, will see, markets were taking a beating early....
np, I remember some bad news on li from Chile .. It's gonna find a bottom soon imo. Silver also looks interesting here.
Lost track of this one.... It took enormous dive..... mabey this bottom mabey its not chile has been screwed up lately with lithium anyways... will watch this carefully... THANKS
Our company MMTE has many acres of concession in Chile - Come on and Joint Venture with Mammoth Energy Group
Come buy our company! MMT*
We have lots of land right
next to yours!!
Any rumors over here about
SQM buying out MMTE? We have
plenty of land you guys might
be interested in! Just sayn...
Hey June! Send your mgmt. over to
talk to WL at MMT* and lets make
a deal!! I feel MMT* is about to
merge with someone, might as well
be a big dog like SQM! We have a lot
of land they can use to mine on!!
I am out of posts for today, so talk
to ya on the boards tomorrow!
Any rumors over here about a
JV or RM with a smaller Lithium
company, like say MMT*?
Just curious, since we are about
to merge with someone. IMHO
Doesn't make sense due to the volatility of the region. Further, it would be easier to recruit human resources in Chile than the 'Stan due to levels of education (literacy) and even mining experience.
Junebug....Are you in a parallel universe??? Look at the share price...Perhaps you are on the wrong board? LOL!
If given the opportunity, SQM would invest in new markets for lithium, such as Afghanistan, which recently discovered vast lithium deposits, the executive said
its all good IMO

Chile SQM In Talks With Japanese Automakers About Lithium Sales -Report
By Erin McCarthy
SANTIAGO -(Dow Jones)- Chilean specialty chemical and fertilizer producer Sociedad Quimica y Minera de Chile SA (SQM, SQM-B.SN) is in talks with several Japanese car manufacturers about direct lithium sales for electric- and hybrid-car batteries, according to a report from local paper El Mercurio Friday.
Northern Chile holds some of the world's largest lithium deposits.
The direct sale of lithium to car companies like Nissan (NSANY, 7201.TO), Mitsubishi (MMTOY, 7211.TO) and Honda (HMC, 7267.TO) would mark a significant change in SQM's business model, which currently sells to companies that produce lithium battery cathodes, several steps away on the supply chain from the car manufacturers.
"The final consumer--in this case, the same manufacturer of batteries and cars--can determine who will provide the raw material, and, therefore, that would be a benefit for SQM," the company's Commercial Vice President Eugenio Ponce said, according to El Mercurio.
The most advanced negotiations are with Nissan, Ponce said. A sales agreement to supply Nissan with 10,000 tons of lithium annually could result in revenues of $55 million per year for SQM.
SQM and Nissan executives plan to meet in coming weeks to reach a sales agreement.
SQM representatives weren't immediately available for comment.

This is the largest producer/miner of lithium in the world. With E-car sales and the the needs of batteries as well as the chinese demand which is huge. China has now overtaken the US in being the largset auto market in the world and they cant sustain there auto fleet on fossil fuels. (13bil poulation)

kramer raved about this stock on his program last wk and got my attention, as i am watching south american stocks given brazils economy and my wife is brazilian...;o)
As you see, I have no idea about their operating cash flow. But based on their revenues and O/S I would say - TOO RISKY - comparing to fundamentals of other fertilizers.
But you know stocks - this one can reach 100 usd without any sensible reason :)) because it is a Potash stock and Potash will rock at least in next five years when more potash plants will increase the supply. At the moment the demand is much higher than supply....Fertilizers were too long without any price change. So it was not interesting for anybody to invest in this sector/build new factories/. Now the food is more expensive, the supply is short and everybody needs fertilizers. But market is very limited. That is why the prices doubled or trippled in last year. And the prices will go higher. There is not enough sources ready to supply......
