I'm appreciating the hinesty of this interview. I have zero time for CEO who are just salesmen and getting a feel for his character here comes across reliable.

This interview was the deciding factor in my decision to invest in this stock. I’ll be building a position and holding for the long term.

Good interview, very much appreciated.
Next time would be nice for a question regarding lithium metal demand, sakuu partnership, etc.

Seems like he understands the market and the business well. Hoping Arcadium does well.

The second time I listened to this interview and now must face a reality this Arcadian is going to take a long time. Share price now down 70% and a long time to recover.
