BearishLucid is barely up 0.1% as shorts double down, increasing by 682K shares to 40.23M total (31.69% float). Shorts have shifted trend from ~29.45% to 31.69% and seem to have found a systematic way to cycle Lucid down. The speaker warns that if Lucid breaks below the $19.50 level, a more aggressive move lower is likely. GM's smaller-than-feared tariff impact is a mild positive read-through.
Key Arguments
- Shorts increasing 682K to 40.23M total (31.69% of float); broke prior trend of declining short interest
- Below all key moving averages; historically a 20-30% pullback follows 50-day breakdown
- GM had smaller tariff impact in Q3, which may benefit Lucid given similar guided 12-15% margin hit
- GM announced no increased focus on EVs, which is mildly positive for Lucid competitive environment
- Social media pump accounts and marketing firms are artificially trying to hype Lucid
- Shorts appear to have found an 'infinite money glitch' cycling Lucid down repeatedly
