Lucid Motors stock forecast
Tesla’s gains were what buoyed the EV sector on Tuesday, as the EV maker had a couple of positive headlines. First, CEO Elon Musk reportedly donated $5 billion worth of Tesla shares to charity during his stock sell off earlier this year. In addition to this, it has been reported that Model Y vehicles have been spotted leaving Tesla’s new Austin GigaFactory. Once Austin and Berlin’s GigaFactories are online, Tesla anticipates growing its production by 50% per year for the foreseeable future.
