    Take Care of Your Windshield!

    I believe I paid about $500 to have their Sprint product installed. They have different levels of protection and I believe the next step up was about $750. I don't drive mine a lot so the lower end product worked well for me. Some people notice a waviness with the Sprint film and supposedly...

    Take Care of Your Windshield!

    There are epoxies that can be used to fill small cracks and chips. Safelite provides that as a free service with certain insurers. However, once the crack spreads, as it appears to have in this instance, replacement is the only option. Within days of purchasing my Air I had ExoShield...

    Target $0

    It’s a topic that requires dialogue for sure. But for publicly traded companies there’s a proper venue for dialogue and that’s the earnings call. Lucid was compelled to respond yesterday given the impact the announcement had on the stock price. But a company has to be very deliberate in...

    Given the choice most companies would prefer their home venue in pursuing litigation. But that assumes that you can establish jurisdiction over the defendant and have them appear in court. It’s a doubtful scenario. So that leaves the court in Portugal. Going that route means dedicating...

    Target $0

    You might want to go back and read the risk factors captured in February’s 10-K. Because your logic and analysis is at odds with what the company is saying. I get the idea of investing based on “vibes” particularly if it’s pocket change that won’t affect your life. But when every negative...

    With all respect, I don’t think you understand what a hedge fund actually is or how it operates.

    Well he can't buy or sell because he's in a blackout period. Theoretically he could have said something publicly but there's little upside. I can understand that shareholders, and perhaps customers, want the company to "do more" in response to this. But not all stakeholders are created equal...

    Target $0

    In a perfectly rational world casinos wouldn't exist. Considering that the odds of a startup surviving and outperforming the S&P 500 over a 5 year period are about 2%, DCA on speculative stocks starts to look a lot more like gambling than investing. They call these 2% of startups unicorns for...

    He also had to comply with SEC rules and Reg FD. There are a myriad of things that a company can and cannot do when it comes to disclosures and responding to rumors particularly in the weeks leading up to earnings release. Retail investors often have no idea what these rules are. It’s one of...

    Well they just replaced the entire leadership team which certainly suggests they learned something. Whether or not they make the same mistakes remains to be seen. And as far as the decision to build the midsize at AMP-2, when that's the preference of your largest investor you have no choice...

    Lucid (allegedely) hires AlixPartners as part of restructuring.

    No doubt about that. Things will change. The CEO's of Ford and GM have been very clear eyed about the future. And anyone looking at the global market will be doing so with a long view. But not every auto company will make it to the finish line. Lucid's immediate priority needs to be in...

    It seems similar to the path Tesla took with the S and X that led them to the 3 and Y. It's a huge gamble and you have to be willing to sustain the billions in losses to get there. But you're either committed to that path are you aren't. The issues that Lucid has had in bringing the Air and...

    Lucid (allegedely) hires AlixPartners as part of restructuring.

    The future of either company will come down to the willingness of their financial backers to continue to pour money into them. The reality is that it's very difficult to launch a new car company, success takes a long time, and most will fail trying.

    Lucid (allegedely) hires AlixPartners as part of restructuring.

    While Alix Partners does financial restructuring consulting, saying that they specialize in bankruptcy is a stretch. And whether or not an action or event is material is defined by the SEC not opinion.

    Lucid (allegedely) hires AlixPartners as part of restructuring.

    FWIW. A few outlets appear to be offering a similar narrative. https://ng.investing.com/news/stock-market-news/lucid-group-shares-fall-on-report-co-weighing-restructuring-options-93CH-2599317

    Reputable Repair Shows in Phoenix Area?

    I think the problem you're going to run into is the shops ability to get Lucid parts. My understanding is that Lucid will only sell parts to their certified shops. This should be a persuasive enough argument with Farmers to have them cover the repair in full. My guess is that your adjuster is...

    Lucid Assistant No Longer Recognizes Sirius XM

    I canceled my car subscription for this reason. The point of satellite radio is the constant connection to the satellite. Lucid’s internet based subscription is no better than streaming via car play.

    US carmakers should be terrified, including Lucid

    You’re thinking of China as it existed a decade ago. The Chinese have been far more aggressive in replacing workers with automated processes commonly known as “dark factories.” They also aren’t burdened by legacy liabilities like pensions and retiree health care. That’s what we’re competing with.

    Took 2K mile road trip, now looking to sell Gravity

    It’s going to depend on the state and parties involved. In AZ, where I live, there’s no sales tax on private party sales. Other states are different. Buyers are also going to consider where you’re located and whether or not they’ll need to transport the car. That could be anywhere from $500...
