Climber18,_nothing has improved/increased/appreciated for_MSB-SpA. Several
members from LPI-HotCopper which include marketing-savvy FrankRockefield and TheGekko have mounted somewhat impressive attention-grabbing "cross-border" intrusions/attacks on other HotCopper lithium message boards and twitter in parallel to the new promotional blitz currently being limpdicklessly executed by LPI management and have miraculously garnered more attention (and clicks) momentarily catapulting LPI into the public spotlight even though LPI has nothing new to tell the growing audience of newly-excited lithium investors. This new hollow buzz about LPI in combination with the fact faux-company-building institutional-investor Regal has severely sold down its previously very-easily stock-pps manipulative position (ie mostly shorting) in LPI has created a miniature perfect storm for allowing baby pumpers to pump LPI up a few pennies.
The pumpers on LPI message boards lately aren't technically blatantly lying about LPI's strengths and monetary potential but they are bending some truths/predictions to their selfish personal benefit as they "pad" embellish and "yup-yup" supplement/support each other's flimsy facts/interpretations/rumors to the point they artificially create what looks like a firm reason to buy LPI while very effectively simultaneously creating untraceable/wispy/ghost "single sources" back in history (eg for use in a judicial testimony) to support/legitimize the reasons/proofs to actually buy LPI stock. You must always remember that if the Chilean government does not increase the legal permitted LCE export quota from 15,000mtpa upward then all this new talk (ie new pumping) about increased lithium resource size means zero to our income-producing potential which would basically only justify a "new" pps increase (or surprise pop) in this current nuts-crushing situation/stalemate/dead-pool/malaise.
If the parent joint-venture MSB-SpA in Chile was actually improving/increasing-in-value/appreciating then Bearing Lithium would be increasing in value... clearly that is not happening.
LPI is currently being artificially inflated not by its own potential/laurels/accomplishments but rather by other lithium miners failings/shortcomings (eg Nevada miners with environmentalists, Piedmont with Gaston County going cold, peer miners unable to completely cheaply remove manganese oxides from their brine to make battery grade, etc.
You could invest in LPI (eg LTHHF) but I would watch Mick_Z. He is quietly buying now playing the temporary pps rise... but when he sells then you need to get out also.
For us at Bearing sadly remaining here in the very quiet Maricunga dust... we continue our painful wait to see if the next Chilean President will be Sebastian Sichel, if a real Sugar Daddy (not this stingy pretend-savior tight-assed jap Mitsui) buys into MSB-SpA, and to see if the new national Constitution Rewrite Convention reclassifies lithium as a water which will absolutely kill us by removing lithium miners from the control of the Ministry of Mining (aka the Devil we know) to be picked over down to our bones by the Indians and by the petty/thieving LCP bureaucrats in the Water Resources Ministry (aka the Devil we don't know).
If you have some spare money to gamble with then perhaps put some in LPI and stay invested until Mick-Z to be subsequently (or even simultaneously) followed by FrankRockefield, TheGekko, HoldTight start to jump ship.
