Message: SA Headline: Lithium Americas +10% as Stifel rates new Buy
  • Lithium Americas (LAC +9.8%) rallies to a two-month high after Stifel initiates coverage with a Buy rating and $13.25 price target, as the company offers "attractive upside potential" as it executes on its growth strategy.
  • Lithium Americas is in the process of becoming one of the world's largest lithium producers and is finishing construction on the Cauchari-Olaroz Project in Argentina, Stifel's Anoop Prihar tells investors.
  • The analyst thinks the company will file a definitive feasibility study for its Thacker Pass project in Nevada in H1 2021, with commercial operations starting in 2024 and capable of producing 60K tons/year of lithium carbonate annually when fully operational.
  • LAC shares have been under selling pressure but "that has come to a close as the Thailand partner has exited," Austin Craig writes in a new bullish analysis published on Seeking Alpha.
