A4N, ASM and Lynas up on news that they attended a roundtable on with PM Anthony Albanese on setting up $4bn worth of funding for critical material projects.

Citing A4N because it has the largest market cap and short positions
In addition, A4N has no offtake agreement yet.
I still don't understand the tech enough in A4N so don't hold given also the market cap is still over $700m with no earnings. It would be most helpful if someone can provide a much needed overview on what A4N does, their competitive advantage and why it justifies a 700m market cap given they are just a processor.
I also think it is still too early to imply any funding guarantees for the roundtable attendees
I added ILU since they already got funding from the government on building a rare earths processing plant.
