Summary of the recent situation with blockades in Mali (mentions recent events and the decision of a private transport company to freeze service for a while).

George thank you for the analysis. How do you think CATL restarting mining is going to affect the lithium price in short-term? To rephrase, do you think there's a chance we're on a trajectory to 600 again, at least for the short-term?

Stop twisting the news of other companies to Kodal, it is false information. I'll think carefully if I should report you.

Bfd, your double standards are hilarious. I do not see you suggesting to have these fake news reported today. I am surprised you are able to retain any self-worth or self-respect.

Doubt the discussed news today are from a reputable source as they would warrant communication of a RNS. You can at least see that serious investors understand this, as the share price does not respond to the fake news.

Includes video of the burned trucks carrying fuel:

Rob7890: "1st shipment profits slowly getttig wiped out"

Finally spoke common sense for once. Though given the ongoing fuel blockade, I expect that whatever fuel remains will go to country/defense, rather than truck companies who aim to transfer lithium. These will have to wait, so expect more delays.

Mali responds with airstrikes on the fuel blockade:

Bfd, you always respond, or try to urge others to report me. So, I am always on your mind. It is clear you can't stop thinking of me. I would urge you to filter me out.

P.S.: It is "Sikasso", not "sisakko". Proper spelling/grammar is always appreciated if you try to impress.

WRE, the photo is the Zamblara forest in Sikasso region, where the fuel blockade happened. It is an old photo. The Sikasso region is east of Bougouni, which means that the influence of these terrorists has extended to the entire southern region.

Unfortunately, I am unfamiliar with Mali's demands for fuel. So it is not easy to infer, from the information provided in the prior article, the timeframe required to paralyze the country from lack of fuel.

I have no idea Chef. I actually do but can't speak in this forum as it is occupied by very emotional investors. I believe the share price is dropping due to weak fundamentals, rather than the fuel blockage. The fuel blockage is at an early stage and we won't see any true impact in the share price until it produces some unquestionable effect. Here is a much more clear article about the situation the past days:

There is new coverage about the cutting of supplies to Mali, as journalists also obtained videos of trucks being burned over the weekend. The title of the article is:

Good luck all.

Potato - Even 0.24 is potentially overvalued, this is the share price that a director (Steve) decided to sell shares based on the RNS of few months ago. Which means that he saw that as a fair value to make a profit before a potential crash as the price was dropping rapidly that period. I would say the true value is slightly below that. In any case, it is a weekend ahead and I am going off this ugly chat now.

Joe - it seems Laverda possibly forgot to filter them from the second account, namely Bfdinvestor, or other accounts who aim to maliciously inflate the share price and make people in this forum lose money when the correction to the share price lands, exactly what is happening today.

Roger, I think you have misunderstood me. The "current share price" and the "fair share price" are different things. How can you not understand this, you are getting this lesson at this very day from the price drop! This is a stock that has been erroneously overvalued by investors like you, which is why the current share price is dropping, because it is higher than the true/fair price of the stock.

I have already expressed my opinion of what the true share value is, using evidence from RNS, but people cannot handle the truth, so I will refrain from mentioning it. Unfortunately, sooner or later one has to confront the truth when staring at the share price (today, tomorrow,in one month).

Bfd, if the company wasn't overvalued the price wouldn't be dropping now.

Roger, it's simply time to mature and confront reality I guess.
