NIO Stock Forecast: Nio Inc blasts higher as new model details are leaked

NYSE:NIO managed to shrug off last week’s decline on Monday as a key piece of news was leaked by a Chinese publication. Shares of Nio flew higher following the news leak, as the stock gained 7.32% during Monday’s trading session, closing the day at $41.49. It was welcome news for Nio investors as the climb came on a day where many growth stocks were pummeled as the ten-year treasury bond yield spiked. The news that Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell receiving another term from President Biden also caused growth sectors to stumble. The Federal Reserve will be implementing its stimulus tapering policies later this year, and many are expecting to see a bearish pull back in the broader markets.
