Update October 7: Lucid Group Inc (NASDAQ: LCID) has been extending its gains, trading at around $24.50 at the time of writing. The electric vehicle world is focused on Tesla and its celebrity founder Elon Musk. The industry leader is holding its closely watched annual shareholders meeting, and that is grabbing attention from other EV-makers – allowing Lucid to shoot higher.
NASDAQ:LCID has been showered with praise from the automotive industry, and the company has yet to even announce a delivery date for its vehicles. Shares of Lucid gained 1.12% on Wednesday, and closed the tumultuous trading session at $24.29. Growth stocks saw a nice rebound into the closing bell as the looming debt ceiling deadline was extended until December by Senate GOP leader Mitch McConnell. The electric vehicle sector traded mostly flat though with Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA), XPeng (NYSE:XPEV), and Li Auto (NASDAQ:LI) edging higher, and Nio (NYSE:NIO) and Fisker (NYSE:FSR) closing the day lower.
