Top 7 Canadian Lithium Stocks of 2024

After a tumultuous 2023 that saw prices for lithium carbonate shed 80 percent from its January start value, Q1 2024 was much less volatile. Starting the year at US$13,377.44 per ton, lithium carbonate prices ended the three-month period in the US$14,874,31 price range, representing an 11 percent increase.

Strong electric vehicle sales numbers in January helped sustain lithium prices through January and February. Prices began to climb higher at the end of the month and through March when values reached a quarterly high of US$16,109 per metric ton (MT). The rally was attributed to news out of China that noted that lithium demand for batteries and energy storage was locked in an “irreversible” growth trend.

"If lithium prices can stabilize between 80,000 and 150,000 yuan, leaving upstream and downstream (companies) along the industry chain certain profit, it might be the best development environment for the whole industry," Li Liangbin, chairman at Ganfeng Lithium (OTC Pink:GNENF,HKEX:SZSE:002460) told Reuters. That currently converts to about US$11,050 to US$20,725.
