Electric vehicle stocks were once again trading in a volatile fashion on Friday. Shares of Tesla (TSLA) lost 1.1% despite Reuters releasing an updated production projection that would see the company execute a 50% production increase in 2023. Rivian (RIVN) and Nio (NIO) were on the rise as the latter company began deliveries of its much anticipated ET5 sedan that is believed to be a major rival to Tesla’s Model 3. 

Tesla is holding its annual AI Day Event on Friday night, and some are expecting a prototype of the company’s Optimus robot. Tesla has long been associated with AI through its FSD software and its much discussed Robotaxi. CEO Elon Musk originally stated that full FSD would be ready by 2016, but to date there have only been beta releases with plenty of glitches. The AI Day Event typically does not have a lot to do with its vehicles, but it does provide insight into the future direction of the company.
