With them saying they can’t produce any vehicles without more money means they will have to do an offering which will drop the price or declare bankruptcy which will drop the price. So I’d say I am.

:
they went over this in the call 2 weeks ago. Theyre looking at non-delutive options, specifically a loan. they have sufficient assets to secure lending. they can produce with the money on hand, but not as many trucks as previously expected.
I'm adding if it dips below 9. adding more if it dips below 7. I think they'll be solvent long term.

I’m sure the rising cost of steel, aluminum, copper, and the availability and price of semiconductors is hurting their overhead.

:
I also believe so... rising cost of both materials and labor. that will be true as an industry standard. all auto manufacturers will feel that, but newcomers can't offset by raising sell prices. that's why they're talking about a loan.
this was all disclosed weeks ago.
the timing on this news is crazy tho. a lot of brokerages have blocked shorting memstocks altogether or raised the margin requirements... Ride is still shortable... I think the shorts are trying to play with the opportunities they have on hand... of the stocks that had big rallies, RIDE was both shortable AND had bad news they could repackage into catastrophe. And it strikes a discordant chord with people who have Nicola in their recent memory.
It'll dip, yeah. Into bankruptcy? I'm betting against that.
*position* bought around 14/share on 2 different platforms. avg down to around 9.5. buy order in if it hits 7.5. planning to buy more if it hits below 7.
