BearishThe speaker notes earnings estimates improved marginally ($229 to $227 EPS) but are still deeply negative. Shorts increased to 31.3% of float heading into earnings and volume is very low with no FOMO buying evident. Options bulls see $18.50 by end of next week post-earnings; bears see sub-$16. The speaker is neutral-to-negative on Lucid's near-term prospects.

- Minimal FOMO buying visible in volume — very unusual vs prior earnings cycles
- Revenue estimate slightly lowered as one bullish analyst dropped coverage
- 57% of options flow is bearish in nature
- Marketing efforts appear to have stalled — Timothy Chalamet ambassador quiet
