Ioneer: 4 Reasons To Expect Further Price Rise
ioneer is a standout lithium stock in 2024, with a YTD increase of ~50%, outperforming the Global X Lithium and Battery Tech ETF, which has seen a pullback. Factors like the need for EV battery supply chain security in the US, its progress with permits, competitive costs and robust NPV work in its favour. While IONR can continue to see price fluctuations as a pre-production miner, at least until 2027, the likelihood of the stock trending broadly upwards is high.
