LCID Stock News: Lucid Group Inc edges higher as EV sector awaits Tesla shareholder meeting

  • NASDAQ:LCID gained 0.37% during Thursday’s trading session.
  • All eyes are on Tesla after hours as it holds its annual shareholder meeting.
  • Nio gets a healthy upgrade from Goldman Sachs.

NASDAQ:LCID and the rest of the electric vehicle sector took a pause during Thursday’s session as the industry awaits Tesla’s (NASDAQ:TSLA) shareholder meeting after hours. Shares of LCID gained 0.37% and closed the trading day at $24.38. The move higher still underperformed the broader NASDAQ index which jumped higher by 1.05% after weeks of tech sector volatility. The rally was mostly due to a temporary short-term solution to the debt ceiling issue that has been plaguing the markets as of late. It should be noted that despite the green day on Thursday, Friday will bring the key employment report for September and thus far, the futures market is mostly flat.

With the impending release of Lucid’s vehicles, it will be interesting to see if Tesla announces any surprises at the call.
