Federal Reserve leaders pledged the central bank would continue an aggressive fight to cool an inflation rate that's at a four-decade high, even if higher rates cause the risk of recession. Fed Bank St. Louis President James Bullard said he favors a strategy of "front-loading" big interest-rate hikes, and he wants to end the year at 3.75% to 4%.

UPS guy : Who would've thought we would be happy about gas going from $5.02 a gallon to $4.16. When we were paying just $3.25 in August of last year...
TeslaSmurf : Both Lucid and Rivian are fkd. They have no production capability and their cars are too expensive to get the 7500$ incentive. Lucid delivered 360 cars in Q1, ALMOST the double in Q2 (let’s round them to 720). We can assume they can double the production in each quarter so the 2022 production would be AT BEST:
360+720+1440+2880 = 5400 cars
They lowered their target first from 20000 to 14000, now to 7000 but they won’t be able to deliver neither that.
They will survive until the Saudis decide to unplug that blood sucking thing.
Why would you buy a Lucid when you can buy a much more efficient, quick and sporty ModelSplaid for 40 quid less OR a Mercedes EQS if you want a luxury sedan ?
