While its a neutral article and has good info, it seem repetitive (like a HS student trying to get the word count up) and somewhat unorganized. The author would do better if they outlined the points they wanted to make before putting pen to paper (or keystokes to screen).

So more pragmatic.

I'm glad you mentioned this. While I don't expect much clarity on key initiatives for another 6 months, there will be clues. This is one of them. And the analyst and institutional investing community will be paying attention. For some retail investors, particularly those that invest on "vibes", it will be completely overlooked. But it's nonetheless crucial in understanding how the company is performing against their stated plan.

For those that didn't care for the 247Wallst article understand that it's not written for casual readers. It captures the fundamentals that are used in setting price targets, buy/sell recommendations, and determining the underlying value in the asset. It's a fairly agnostic take on where the company is at the moment and the criteria skilled investors consider in making decisions. They aren't the drunk guys at a party telling you to buy Lucid. They're the sober ones taking your keys.

Most of these are written by amateurs, just take a bunch of numbers and come up with a story. The guy who wrote that, David Moadel has been writing about hit pieces of Lucid for past 4-5 years. He never stops, I bet you he will have another one next week. More clicks he gets, more he gets paid.

He has absolutely no financial education or background. He is/was an elementary school teacher. Investor place, 24/7 Wall Street, motley fool ( the free articles) seeking alpha…, .all amateurs…..and there are many more. Wall Street pushes articles through them to influence retail investors.

Perhaps you're right. But when I read the article I don't really see opinions, I see math and the logical conclusions that flow from it.

What elements/aspects of the article are you taking exception with? It's based off of reported earnings and financial statements not "a bunch of numbers." Should we ignore or discount those? Is the accumulated deficit or negative cash flow and equity wrong? Should investors see this as a good thing? If numbers don't matter what does? The consensus estimates are what they are and to the extent they've been revised they've gone down. And there's no disputing that we're dealing with a new leadership team and there's going to be doubt as to whether they can accomplish their ambitious agenda until they prove they can do so.

In short, you might not like the messenger, but the message is accurate and the assessment is an honest one.

I could see a reveal around that timeline / end of the year, considering Napoli said AMP-2 can be expected to be ready for production at early 2027, with ramp-up at the second half of the year

That’s because it was written by AI :)

The entire article could have been replaced with “the stock did precisely what it was expected it would do, given what was announced, and price targets remains mostly unchanged and the majority of analysts continue to say hold.”

Lucid's CEO Promised a $1.4 Billion Turnaround, Then This Happened

Lucid's new CEO launched a sweeping turnaround plan and called out years of failure in unusually blunt terms, yet the stock hit a 52-week low days later. Something in that reset spooked investors far more than it reassured them.

Reminds me of that old joke...
"President of a country is handed 3 numbered envelopes by the previous leader. Previous leader says "If you screw anything up, then open one of the envelopes and it will tell you what to do."

Eventually, over time, the president screws some things up. Everyone gets mad at him and threatens to impeach him. So he opens the Envelope #1. It says "Blame everything on me, your predecessor."

So he does that and eventually is forgiven.

But then, as time goes on, the president screws up again. He doesn't know what to do. So he opens up Envelope #2. It says "Blame everything on me again." So, in time, the people forgive him again.

But then, as time goes on, the president screws things up yet a 3rd time. He doesn't know what to do. Relieved that he still has one envelope left, he opens it up. It says "Prepare 3 envelopes."

There's not much reason to buy a Tesla now, unless you want to see how FSD works out.

Oh wow LIV golf declared bankruptcy today 👀

PIF pulled out of LIV months ago. If anything, I would think it would bode well for Lucid because PIF probably saw the real burning of cash with LIV and it doesn't seem to feel the same way about Lucid. Times are a little tight with the tensions in the middle east and I think PIF just wants to keep money in things they think will actually gain profits in the long term.

Or not. I don't know.

Times are tighter for the Saudis, but not for that reason. Profits are actually way up (33%) for ARAMCO because the tensions have driven up the price of oil and they've still been able to get most of it shipped.

It's just that they were swimming in money for so many years and they've been throwing it around so freely that it finally started to catch up with them. For instance, they blew $50B on that silly NOEM project that collapsed. They reportedly lost $1.4B on LIV Golf.

isn't distribution constricted though? I mean, we're speculating for a fair amount of it, but even if the actual price of crude is up, if the volume doesn't accompany it, it doesn't really net better profits.

Some, but they've been able to keep most of it flowing between their pipelines to the Red Sea and with help from our military that kept a lot more tankers quietly moving than was initially reported. They are down about a third in volume but they more than made up for it in higher margins. Profits rose 33%.
 
Seems $4 is incoming and imminent.

I think they dropped more like $5B on LIV so more than they've dropped on LCID I think.
