Taking Private & Sale?
Any chance Brookfield takes this private and sells to an automaker/autoparts maker or consortium? Or is that idea completely out to lunch?

I don't know about the ultimate outcome...taking control of the rest of the shares is the next step from my experience with Brookfield...$23ish.

Getting rid of the pubco fees and disclosure requirements alone is worth it. Not sure why they didn't just do that years ago when the value of the outstanding float was quite low.

I could see some strategic value here to the right acquirer, being that it’s a supply of Palladium/Platinum from outside of South Africa and Russia, even if Palladium prices revert in the longer-term. If there’s a true above ground shortage and potential supply chain disruption should SA PGM mines strike.
