Target Price
$5
“Bears are anticipating for it to continue to break down in the foreseeable future for it to be sub 650 uh six and even by the week ending May the 15th for it to pretty much be sub five.”@ 7:02 · open at this moment on YouTube ↗
Thesis at the time
BearishThe speaker argues that LCID's decline is not manipulation but institutional selling, driven by concerns over repeated convertible preferred stock issuances since 2022. The PIF's preferred stock position means they win regardless of price direction, and Wall Street is walking away. Bears are targeting sub-$5 by May 15.
Key arguments
- Institutions selling, not shorts manipulating — big players like Vanguard, BlackRock likely reducing positions
- Convertible preferred stock reliance is a 'death' mechanism seen in dozens of failing stocks
- PIF designed their structure to profit whether LCID goes up or down
- 32.2% of free float shorted; puts outweighing calls 4:1 ($4M puts vs $963K calls)
- Demand slowing in Europe; Lucid missing broader market FOMO rally
- Long-term investors starting to capitulate
Counter-arguments acknowledged
- Bulls see $7.50-$8.00 as potential floor
- If LCID hits $5, some institutions may step back in
