1. Report Industry Investment Rating - Not provided in the content 2. Core Viewpoints of the Report - Due to domestic new - energy vehicle countryside promotion and 618 promotion policies, the domestic lithium carbonate social inventory has been continuously decreasing. However, because of the decreasing domestic lithium carbonate production cost and the loosening supply - demand expectation, the lithium carbonate price may be strong first and then weak. It is recommended that investors mainly conduct range operations, paying attention to the support level around 55,000 - 58,000 and the pressure level around 63,000 - 65,000 [1][4] - The lithium carbonate basis is positive and the monthly spread is positive, and both are basically in a reasonable range. This is due to the promotion of new - energy vehicles in the countryside in China, the initial decline of domestic lithium carbonate social inventory, the decreasing lithium ore price leading to the downward shift of production cost, and the loose supply - demand expectation of domestic lithium carbonate in June. It is recommended that investors temporarily wait and see the arbitrage opportunities of lithium carbonate basis and monthly spread [5][7] 3. Summary According to Related Catalogs Supply Side Lithium Ore and Lithium Concentrate - The price of domestic (imported) lithium ore has been oscillating downward (decreasing). Tianqi Lithium's Greenbushes lithium mine's 520,000 - ton wet - process project may be put into production in October 2025, and the total capacity will reach 2.14 million tons/year, which will lead to the oscillating decline (decrease) of the price of domestic (imported) lithium ore.
