Electric vehicle stocks haven’t been nearly as active as they were during the heart of the Covid crisis.

There are three good reasons the lithium story is probably about to go into overdrive. For one, the bull market is only accelerating. By 2030, tens of millions of electric vehicles could be on the roads, especially with global governments pushing for them. Even major automakers are abandoning internal combustion engines for EVs.
