ICC/ICSID pressure has reached steaming point. The pot has been on the boil for a while and Felix the pussycat is starting to look like a soaked feline in a balmy stinky asian pho soup shop. Something was about to give....
CATH have all of a sudden become the saving grace, but fortunately for them, their crystal ball was working long before Trump has chucked his hat in the ring. CATH were very much aware of Trumps chess game long before they stumped up the cash, lets say it was a very smart calculated investment.
Trump goes bunta on the universe and says I'm gunna tax all you bastards out there for crap that comes in to the US of A, we're going manufacturing baby.
Trump asks Elon, "hey babe, whaddya need for you and I to make the green moula beyond comprehension??"... Elon says "gimme energy"..
Trump goes "Sure Elon, lets go grab the biggest Li resource in the world and whilst we're there send em bombs, army and feel good vibes in exchange for a spot in between Felixs' silky bed sheets and we'll probably jag some other tasty minerals they have".
The Oz government is a freaking disgrace still.
Zijin basically has zero fire power now. CATH will still have some form of sway depending on how strong/weak Trump goes with Felix.
I'm thinking a figure of $10-20B will be the buyout price, Nige walks away with a pair of golden balls and us early shareholders who got in early days and held on will be millionaires.
All my opinion, could be BS.
PS. IF anyone has any spare shares for sale, I'll take em..
