Hmm, so if you were an American buying US$1.00 (in USA currency) worth of goods (eg some coochie worth US$1.00 from a hot leftist/commie chick at a bar in Santiago) on Wednesday and this new law was enacted on Friday then on Saturday night at the same bar in Santiago with US$0.90 instead you could then buy that same US$1.00 worth of hot leftist/commie coochie you had last Wednesday. Or, following the same rationale if you were an American-based lithium project investor you could on Saturday buy US$673,000,000 worth of CAPEX in Maricunga for the new reduced amount of US$612,000,000
Is it possible that the shrewd CFOs in Ford, Tesla, GM, Stellantis North America, BYD North America, Mitsui & Co NYC, etc have been waiting for this law to be passed by the US Senate before they pump any more of their money into Chile?
You know what would be incredibly strange? What if Mitsui & Co NYC bought that lithium CAPEX example in Chile for US$612,000,000 and then allocated their entire 41% share of "bagged" LCE for direct shipment to Japan thus qualifying for the recent 50% matching investment from the Japanese government https://investorshub.advfn.com/boards/read_msg.aspx?message_id=171848487 which means Mitsui & Co NYC only "really" forked up net-net $306,000,000 for that $673,000,000 Chilean CAPEX investment in 2023-2024.
