Lithium and AMLM
Recently, one of our featured companies, American Lithium Minerals [ticker symbol:AMLM] experienced volatile trading activity. Since July 17, the stock price has gone from $0.41 to a high on October 22 of $2.99, and just yesterday closed at $0.84.. Certainly after the initial run-up to $2.99 a certain retracing was to be expected. But just as the run-up was overextended I believe that this recent correction has been too severe and that the stock price now presents a tremendous buying opportunity. As can be seen on the chart, the stock price has been oversold to a level far below the lower Bollinger Band line at $1.00 and is now sitting near the $0.80 support level. I fully expect the stock price to rebound in short order to the $1.05 to $1.20 level and consolidate in a trading range for the short term between $1.00 and $1.60.
