Yeah, hopefully it's over $16/share (my cost average)
Thus far, this is only a rumor. Let's see how it shakes out before making any further assumptions.

I hope so cuz my cost basis is $19.
Mine’s at $20.94. Must go higher! Lol
I also am not happy if Saudi's take it private. My cost is 23.57.

Damnit! I was going to put another chunk of cash in this week but thought I'd just wait to see what happens on the earnings call next month. I could've made a nice little profit!
I'm not surprised by the rumor but thought it would be later this year or next in the lead up to the Gravity launch. Given the money Lucid needs to get to that model launching and the fact that it seems the PIF is the only one that's prepared to put huge chunks of cash in it, it makes sense that they keep handing money over and want to take it private. They will no doubt make it public again if\when Lucid has proven itself to be a serious competitor in the EV space and probably don't want all this up and down media scrutiny \ noise affecting the stock price while trying to achieve that.
Good for Lucid, bad for investors. Good for owners though as it means the company isn't going anywhere for the time being.

It's good for owners from the "company existing" perspective, but it might slow down development of some things since they don't need to reach goals to keep investors happy.
Supposedly Saudi PIF is buying the rest of Lucid. Stay tuned.

Anyone hear a buyout price?
I would think there are a fair number of institutional buyers that have holdings that have, so far, lost money. If the buyout doesn't make up for some of their hurting I would think there would be lawsuits. Whether there's a basis for that I have no clue.
No, this is all on rumors and short sellers getting absolutely destroyed.

LOL.... suffer!
The potential of Saudi takeover is going to create a backstop somewhere between $25 to $30 per share regardless of the takeover happening or not.
Shorts are now learning the hard way that manipulating and shorting the stock that is fully backed by limitless $$$ is very risky proposition.
Not too many shorts will have the risk appetite to mess with LCID going forward.

And now it just started tanking..
What goes up, must come down.
