Investing in the battery minerals fueling the energy transition

Electric vehicle demand is on an upward trend, generating excitement among some investors about the prospects of electric vehicle manufacturers and the miners supplying the materials needed for their batteries. What retail investors lack, however, is direct exposure to minerals prices to avoid risks associated with investing in manufacturers and miners that may be untested or located in geopolitically hazardous areas, EMG Advisors CEO Will McDonough told metals and mining reporter and Energy Evolution correspondent Camellia Moors. McDonough joins Energy Evolution to talk about investment opportunities in energy transition metals, EMG Advisors' new metals-focused exchange traded fund, and the electric vehicle battery chemistries that will define the future of the energy transition. Please note that in this episode, which was recorded before a company name change, EMG Advisors is referred to as "Charged Funds." Energy Evolution co-hosts Dan Testa and Taylor Kuykendall are veteran journalists with broad expertise covering the energy and mining sectors.
