Overall Thesis
Lucid had a massive +8.8% day driven by Morgan Stanley's bull case upgrade to $10, with shorts returning 1.32M shares signaling potential capitulation, though technicals still need improvement.
Narratives
LCIDLucid MotorsMorgan Stanley raised its bull case to $10 and changed its rating from sell to hold (equal weight), which the speaker attributes to Morgan Stanley becoming a market maker on the Saudi exchange. Shorts returned 1.32M shares on a big up day, which is unusually bullish behavior. The speaker sees the next strong resistance at $2.63 and highlights a gap to fill near $2.60.
Key Arguments
- Morgan Stanley bull case of $10 – a level not seen from them in a long time – drove the stock +8.8%
- Shorts returned 1.32M shares on the up day, abnormal behavior suggesting partial capitulation

Risks acknowledged

- NVIDIA GTC keynote did not mention Lucid for autonomous driving, causing a mid-day pullback
