Many investors believe in the clean energy movement. Does this mean they should bet their hard-earned capital on electric vehicle (EV) manufacturer Lucid Group (NASDAQ:LCID)? Not necessarily, as Lucid isn’t likely to sell many vehicles in 2023. Consequently, LCID stock just doesn’t offer a favorable risk-to-reward profile. Like other EV makers, Lucid Group has to compete

Look at a stock chart for Lordstown Motors (NASDAQ:RIDE), and it is clear investors have already sent RIDE stock to the market junkyard. However, with its super-low stock price, I can understand why some may have the urge to go contrarian on this floundering electric vehicle maker. After all, it’s already at the bottom of
