Lucid City“it is fair to assume that we'll probably find out from Lucid in maybe September about Hyundai”@ 2:26 · open at this moment on YouTube ↗
Thesis at the time
BullishLucid outperformed the EV sector (Tesla -8%, Rivian -1.5%, Polestar -7%) by closing up 0.71% on the day. Peter Rawlinson confirmed at the shareholder meeting that Lucid is in talks with 'several' OEMs — not just Hyundai — which the speaker sees as a significant expansion of the potential partnership pipeline. Shorts returned 1.18 million shares on a green day, which the speaker views as validation that the upside move was justified.
Key arguments
- Peter Rawlinson explicitly said Lucid is in talks with 'several OEMs' — plural — suggesting more than just a Hyundai deal
- Hyundai deal likely to be announced around September 2024, similar to the 6-month lag seen with the Aston Martin deal
- Shorts returning 1.18 million shares on a green day validates the bullish momentum
- All board votes were passed including executive compensation and the 2021 stock incentive plan
- Lisa Lambert added to board of directors
Counter-arguments acknowledged
- Institutions remain quiet with only four transactions above $100K
- $3 is a strong artificial resistance driven by options open interest (20,000 contracts at that strike)
