Vinfast and Nio

"Vinfast" blogs tend to cause a spike in readership. The last blog I did on VinFast was back on April 1st last year entitled " Another Blog on "Vinfast". At that time the stock was trading at $4.70. Now it's at $4.54 up $.44 cents on the day.The company seems to have strong backers with 2.34 billion shares outstanding with 97% of them held by insiders. That gives them the ability to control the stock's price. The second company I want to talk about is "Nio". The last blog I did on Nio was back on March 10th called "Nio, Could This Be The Real Thing". Nio at that time was trading at $5.69. Before that I did a blog on it on February 5th entitled "What do you think is going to happen to "NIO" On The Opening". The stock at that time was trading at $4.71. It has 2.53 billion shares outstanding with 0% owned by insiders and 14.8% owned by institutions. In contrast Ford has about 4 billion shares outstanding however they...

Buying Back Shares To Help Lift The Stock - EV News Again

Image
After years of work they now have three truck sales. Now this. Would I be buying this stock? NO. Another reverse stock split seems to be in the wind. On a differing note "Faraday Future" is busy running around race tracts breaking speed records. I guess they are burning off steam after recently doing a 1-80 reverse stock split. Image that! Yes it really did happen. What a crazy race to go electric.** Now Mullen again one week later. **** An update in July 2025.. Nothing has changed much. We still have struggling car making companies.

Pension Funds and EV Stocks - A Need To Be Part Of The Action

Image
Pension funds invest in EV stocks. Currently Lucid is 81% owned by institutions and 4% insiders. Rivian is 63% owned by institutions and 12% insiders. It's not the average guy on the street who own these two stocks. What do institutional investors know about stocks in this sector that we don't? Tesla is 44% owned by institutions and 13% by insiders. Workhorse is 33% owned by institutions and 4% insiders. In contrast Polestar is only 4% owned by institutions and 47% by insiders. Lucid and Rivian are both up and running with production output. For this reason they both seem to be gaurishing an inordinate amount of attention. Please now read this. After you finish reading this I will tell you what I think. It seems to me that institutions are out in the garden patch whimically putting EV stocks into their basket. What a dangerous voyage of discovery. Yet what floats the boat is Tesla which has had a wonderful run. The scary part is that this stock has a P/E ratio of 71:80-1. The ...

Another New Electric Vehicle Player To Watch - Vinfast.

Image
Do you remember Polestar going public at $10.00 a share? Look at how it has struggled. It dropped further this week on a disappointing quarterly earnings report. Maybe next week it will bounce back again. It's still in business and advanced new models are soon on the horizon. It could be like the Nio report last week. Nio bounced back after reporting a quarter of lower production numbers. Other upstart electric vehicle companies like Rivian and Fisker are also struggling to be profitable. Remember I recently mentioned Faraday Future doing a 70 for 1 reverse stock split? How crazy was that? A ten for one reverse split would have got them over the magical $1.00 mimimum trading treshold and kept it as one of the most actively traded stock on the Nasdaq. Here is how it traded this week after their announcement. Their stock in now sinking into oblivion. Then there is a newly listed Vietnamese company called VinFast with vehicles arriving to North America and plans to buld a factory in ...
