Best Lithium Stocks to Invest in 2022

The Lithium industry is one that many claims are on the verge of a price explosion. With increasing momentum in the shift towards electric vehicles, metal continues to see an increase in demand. Analysts point out that demand will continue to outweigh available supply right through 2030. Electric vehicles (EVs) and laptops rely heavily on lithium batteries for their lightweight, power-dense performances. It is no wonder that lithium prices have more than doubled since 2015 because of the insatiable demand for these products, especially electric vehicles.

Furthermore, many governments have been actively supporting the push toward electric vehicles. This is due to sky-high rocketing oil prices, and the wider trend towards sustainable practices. These conditions have continued to bring the Lithium industry under the spotlight. This, therefore, presents a ripe opportunity for those looking to add a high-growth class of stock to their overall portfolio.

The best lithium stocks, plus the best lithium investing strategies, will enable you to take advantage of the growing interest in this essential commodity. Ultimately, the best lithium stocks for your portfolio are determined by your personal investment objectives.
