CCIV Stock Price: Lucid Motors – Churchill Capital IV continues to slide as crucial vote looms

NYSE:CCIV extended its decline once again to start the week, as the broader markets were pummeled on Monday following rising cases of the COVID-19 delta variant. Shares of CCIV dropped a further 2.59% to close the session at $22.20. CCIV is now in a bearish downtrend ahead of its shareholder vote on Thursday, as the stock is now trading well below both its 50-day and 200-day moving averages. It is unclear just how much of CCIV’s price action has been due to investor trepidation ahead of the merger, or if the stock is just being dragged down alongside the broader markets where SPAC sentiment is becoming more negative by the day.
