THE BALL IS IN CHINA'S COURT
In addition to lithium, which is needed for the
construction of batteries, there is also an enormous surplus demand for other
raw materials, which will become even more acute in the coming years. For
example, permanent magnets for electric motors are produced based on rare earth
metals. At the moment, 80% of rare earth production still occurs in China,
which has a virtual monopoly. Due to the US trade dispute, this can lead to
enormous supply bottlenecks in the Western world.
Thus, as early as 2017, former President Trump
attempted to free the US from dependence on China for rare earth metals by issuing
an Executive Order. That Executive Order was followed in early October 2018 by
a presidential declaration declaring a national mining emergency to establish a
US domestic rare earth metals stockpile for military needs.
THE US COOPERATES WITH CANADA
The next steps and closer cooperation in the
production of electric cars is now to take place between the neighboring
countries of Canada and the United States. Canadian leader Trudeau stressed
that Canada and the United States can work more closely together on supplies of
critical minerals needed to make batteries for cars and other clean
technologies. Canada has many of the rare earth metals needed for car batteries
and solar panels, he said.
General Motors Co, Ford Motor Co and Stellantis NV
already announced plans to produce electric vehicles in Canada. "There are
a lot of really great opportunities to develop partnerships and manufacturing
facilities not just for the North American market, but for the whole
world," Trudeau added.
LIKE WINNING THE LOTTERY
Defense Metals . (TSX-V: DEFN / OTCQB: DFMTF / FSE: 35D). CEO Craig Taylor is exceptionally pleased
with the Canadian and US governments' current integration plans for electric
vehicles and critical commodities such as rare earth metals. Not surprisingly,
his Company is one of the primary beneficiaries of the envisioned cooperation.
Thus, the Company leader made the following comments: "As we continue to
develop the 1,708-hectare Wicheeda rare earth deposit near Prince George in
British Columbia, we are actively working with government agencies and
affiliated government groups. We expect 2021 to be a very busy year for our
Company."
The stock chart shows that Defense Metals is on the
right track. The share price has almost tripled since last year, from EUR 0.10
to now EUR 0.27. The stock market value is currently EUR 13.50 million. Should
Canada become the new center of rare earth metals in the western world, Defense
Metals should profit from this. The share is traded not only on the home stock
exchange in Toronto but also in Germany.
FANTASTIC DEVELOPMENT
Chinese automaker NIO (NYSE: NIO) is currently valued at
USD 90 billion on the stock market, making it more valuable than Daimler and
BMW. The share price has increased fifteenfold within a year. Unlike its peer
group, NIO uses a battery swap system, which is very complex and expensive to
develop and manufacture. The figures for the fourth quarter and the full year
2020 are now eagerly awaited. In advance, the US investment bank Morgan Stanley
has already commented positively on the Chinese electric car producer and
significantly increased the price target for the share. JP Morgan is also
bullish on the Chinese automaker. The consensus estimates for the fourth
quarter of 2020 are for Company revenue of just under USD 991 million and
earnings per share of negative USD 0.08. For full-year 2020, analysts expect
Company revenue of USD 2.48 billion and earnings per share of negative USD
0.59.
GROWTH SLOWS DOWN
Still strong numbers with slowing momentum is how
the January sales figures for electric car maker Geely (OTC: GELYF) can be summarized. A total of 156,326
vehicles were sold in the first month of the year. This figure represents an
increase of 40% compared to the same period last year. Compared to December
2020, however, sales grew by only about 1%. Among the total number of cars
delivered by Geely Automobile in January 2021, 4,289 were New Energy and Electrified
Vehicles, representing a considerable downturn. Geely sold 7,171 units in this
division in the previous month. Of the total vehicles sold in the month, there
were 60,823 sedans, 93,827 SUVs and 1,676 multi-purpose cars.

Excerpt
Die Energiewende ist in vollem Gange. Allein die Absatzzahlen
der Elektroautomobile konnten um über 100% gegenüber dem Vorjahr gesteigert
werden. Die Nachfrage nach den neuen Fahrzeugen ist ungebrochen. Der Bedarf an
Rohstoffen, die für den Bau von Batterien und Motoren der neuen Generation
benötigt werden, übersteigen schon jetzt das Angebot deutlich. Hinzu kommt der
Handelskrieg mit China. Findet man hier keine adäquaten Alternativen, droht der
Kollaps.
CHINA AM ZUG
Neben Lithium, dass für die Bau der Batterien
gebraucht wird, besteht auch bei anderen Rohstoffen enormer Nachfrageüberhang,
der sich in den nächsten Jahren noch deutlich zuspitzen wird. Auf Grundlage
seltener Erdmetalle werden zum Beispiel Permanentmagneten für Elektromotoren
hergestellt. Die Produktion der seltenen Erden findet im Augenblick noch zu 80%
in China statt, das Land besitzt quasi ein Monopol. Durch den Handelsstreit mit
den USA kann es dadurch in der westlichen Welt zu enormen Angebotsengpässen
führen. So versuchte bereits 2017 der frühere Präsident Trump mit dem Erlass
einer Executive Order, die USA von der Abhängigkeit durch China in Bezug auf
die seltenen Erdmetalle loszueisen. Dieser Executive Order folgte Anfang
Oktober 2018 eine Erklärung des Präsidenten, in der er den nationalen Notstand
im Bergbau ausrief, mit dem Ziel, ein inländisches seltene Erdmetalllager der
USA für militärische Erfordernisse einzurichten.
USA KOOPERIERT MIT KANADA
Nun solle zwischen den Nachbarländern Kanada und den
Vereinigten Staaten die nächsten Schritte und eine engere Zusammenarbeit bei
der Produktion von Elektroautos erfolgen. So betonte das kanadische Oberhaupt
Trudeau, dass Kanada und die Vereinigten Staaten bei der Versorgung mit
kritischen Mineralien, die für die Herstellung von Batterien für Autos und
andere saubere Technologien benötigt werden, enger zusammenarbeiten können.
Kanada habe viele der seltenen Erdmetalle, die für Autobatterien und
Solarpaneele benötigt werden. General Motors Co, Ford Motor Co und Stellantis
NV kündigten bereits an, Elektrofahrzeuge in Kanada zu produzieren. "Es
gibt eine Menge wirklich großartiger Möglichkeiten, Partnerschaften und
Produktionsanlagen nicht nur für den nordamerikanischen Markt, sondern für die
ganze Welt zu entwickeln", fügte Trudeau hinzu.
WIE EIN SECHSER IM LOTTO
Äußerst zufrieden zeigt sich der CEO von Defense
Metals, Craig Taylor, im Hinblick auf die jüngsten Integrationspläne der
kanadischen und US-amerikanischen Regierung in Bezug auf Elektrofahrzeuge und
kritische Rohstoffe wie seltene Erdmetalle. Kein Wunder, ist sein Unternehmer
ja einer der Hauptprofiteure der angedachten Kooperation. So äußerte sich der
Unternehmenslenker wie folgt: „Im Zuge des weiteren Ausbaus der 1.708 Hektar
großen Seltenerdlagerstätte Wicheeda in der Nähe von Prince George in British
Columbia arbeiten wir aktiv mit Regierungsbehörden und angeschlossenen
Regierungsgruppen zusammen. Wir gehen davon aus, dass 2021 für unser
Unternehmen ein sehr arbeitsreiches Jahr werden wird.“
Dass Defense Metals auf dem richtigen Weg ist, zeigt
der Aktienchart. So konnte sich der Kurs seit dem vergangenen Jahr von 0,10 EUR
auf aktuell 0,27 EUR fast verdreifachen. Der Börsenwert liegt im Moment bei
13,50 Mio. EUR. Sollte Kanada zum neuen Zentrum der seltenen Erdmetalle in der
westlichen Welt aufsteigen, dürfte Defense Metals extrem davon profitieren, Die
Aktie wird neben der Heimatbörse in Toronto auch in Deutschland gehandelt.
