Any good news today- why all of a sudden Lucid is up 27% today
Supposedly from a recommendation in a Motley Fool article, according to what I read elsewhere. But it's not an official recommendation from them. In other words it's not on the list of recommendations for subscribers.
 
Speculation that a Lucid will be in the next James Bond movie? Otherwise, I've got nothing.


Distribution rights to one of the most well-known spy movie franchises now belong to Amazon.com Inc (AMZN) after the e-commerce giant acquired media company MGM.

The next James Bond installment could provide a boost to Amazon's (AMZN) media efforts and also help an electric vehicle company.

What Happened: The James Bond movies remain staples at the box office and also rank as some of the highest grossing movies in the U.K. of all-time.

Fans of the Bond films eagerly await news of a 26th movie, which will feature a new actor taking over the role of 007, but some good news for electric vehicle fans could be coming for the franchise.

Lucid Group (LCID) could be behind the technology of an electric vehicle in the next Bond movie, according to comments made recently from Lucid Motors CEO Peter Rawlinson.

Speaking at the ribbon-cutting for a Lucid production facility in Arizona, Rawlinson hinted that a long-term partnership between the EV company and auto company Aston Martin could see Lucid featured in the next James Bond movie, according to Electrek.

Through a partnership, Lucid Motors will supply its electric powertrain technology to Aston Martin. The technology will help Aston Martin launch its first fully electric vehicle in 2025.

"It is little wonder that Aston Martin chose our Sapphire technology, and certainly, Lucid will be powering the Aston Martins of the future, and a little bird tells me that maybe Mr. Bond will be powered by Lucid, as a consequence Wouldn't that be cool?" Rawlinson said.

Why It's Important: After five movies as the lead James Bond character, Daniel Craig will no longer play the well-known spy. Betting odds show actors like Aaron Taylor-Johnson, Henry Cavill, Tom Hardy, James Norton, Rege-Jean Page and Damson Idris as the favorites to land the 007 role.

The last five Bond movies, which featured Craig, are among the highest-grossing films in the franchise ever. Here's a look at their domestic and worldwide box office gross, as reported by BoxOfficeMojo.

  • 2006: "Casino Royale": $167.4 million domestic, $606.0 million worldwide
  • 2008: "Quantum of Solace": $168.4 million domestic, $589.6 million worldwide
  • 2012: "Skyfall": $304.4 million domestic, $1.11 billion worldwide
  • 2015: "Spectre": $200.1 million domestic, $880.7 million worldwide
  • 2021: "No Time to Die": $126.9 million domestic, $774.2 million worldwide
Amazon's (AMZN) acquisition of MGM was one of its biggest of all time and could see exclusive content come to Amazon Prime Video. Amazon (AMZN) launched a James Bond-themed reality competition called "007: Road to a Million," which was exclusive to Prime Video. The series consisted of eight episodes and was released in November 2023. The series was renewed for a second season.

Aston Martin has been a staple in James Bond movies and is expected to be featured in the next installment. Based on the partnership with Lucid, intentions for an electric vehicle to be released in 2025 and comments from Rawlinson, Bond could be driving an electric vehicle while chasing bad guys in the next film.

Yup, I posted a thread about this, but it was revealed a couple of days ago and I don't think it would help much for the stock price as you said!
 
Moviegoers watching the next Bond film won't see Lucid branding on screen.

Whether Bond's Aston Martin has an AMG-Mercedes-Benz powertrain or a Lucid Motors one is irrelevant to the audience.

PiF decided to buy shares on the open market?

That depends on a lot of factors. Nobody knows that yet. I think you’re probably right, but that doesn’t mean there won’t be a huge PR push with it.
 
I think just a combination, stock is oversold, factory expansion, Formula E partnership, midsize tease, deal with Maaden for aluminum sheets and a reminder that Lucid is powering Aston Martins.
People realizing PIF will support no matter what.
