[JRB]

Does anyone agree with this logic?

Definitely could see Geely buying AM. Hard to imagine a combo with Lucid, but who knows what's possible with the PIF.

Looks like this story has been around for awhile: https://www.swfinstitute.org/news/93253/could-aston-martin-merge-with-lucid-motors

I could see a licensing agreement happen between the two, but not a merger. That would be a win-win for both.

I was thinking Ford. But now I'm thinking the Saudis won't sell...they need something for when nobody wants their oil.

I can see where it makes good business sense, it's a situation where each player brings something valuable to the table.

I don’t think Brits want to see Chinese buy everything. When I rode LEVC cab. I can sense from a lot of cab drivers Chinese corporations are buying too many of products, even complained about boycotting Volvos. Aston Martin is a brand of British heritage pride. So I wouldn’t see them wanting to sell to Chinese bc their public sentiment.

Saudi own 16% of Ason Martin....of course they will use lucid tech for their supercars!
