BullishThe speaker highlights that Morgan Stanley increased its Lucid position by 46% Q/Q while maintaining a $3 sell rating from Adam Jonas, framing this as typical analyst manipulation to accumulate shares at lower prices. Shorts returning ~1M shares for two consecutive days signals possible short squeeze potential ahead of earnings. The speaker believes the stock will trade above $4 if Lucid guides 25,000+ units for 2025.
