Overall Thesis
July sales estimates show 890 Air units in the US but zero Gravity sales for the second consecutive month, raising demand concerns ahead of Q2 earnings next week.
Narratives
LCIDLucid MotorsThe July US sales estimates show 890 Air units — a 27.7% month-over-month increase — but zero Gravity sales for the second straight month, which is concerning. Shorts hit LCID hard early (up to +20M intraday) before returning shares. Management will likely need to address the Gravity zero sales data at earnings. The stock held above the 50-day MA despite the selling.
Key Arguments
- 890 Air units estimated in July — 27.7% MoM increase is positive
- Zero Gravity sales for second consecutive month — major red flag
- Shorts hit LCID with nearly 20M shares early but returned most — net +4.9M
- 53% of options bullish — more optimism than usual
- Stock closed above 50-day MA (239) despite heavy short activity
- Broad macro data (ISM 48, NFP 73K vs 110K) drove September cut probability to 86.4%
Risks acknowledged
- Zero Gravity sales could be data error or inventory allocation issue, not demand
- LCID held relatively better than Tesla (-1.83%) and Rivian (-3.81%) in tough market
