Narratives
LCIDLucid Motors
MixedOn a broadly red day driven by the Trump-Powell confrontation, Lucid fell just 3.15% while Rivian dropped 5.3% and Nvidia fell 5.19%, showing relative strength. Robert Baird reiterated a $3 price target. Zero shares available to short indicates bears are overextended. Shorts added 2.32M shares despite the stock's relative strength, which the speaker interprets as a bullish signal because it means bears needed to work hard just to achieve that modest decline.
Key Arguments
- Zero shares available to short — shorts are fully overextended, making a squeeze more likely
