By Michael J. Moody 3 months ago

Shares of electric vehicle maker Rivian Automotive (NASDAQ:) have been spiraling lower at such a rapid rate that even the company’s most faithful investors are beginning to doubt whether there will be any success in its future.

RIVN Weekly

The Irving, Texas-based startup has lost more than $120 billion in market value in the four months since it went public on Nov. 10, in one of 2021’s biggest, most watched IPOs. The stock priced at $78 ahead of its IPO but skyrocketed to $106.75 when it debuted. Currently trading at $38.05, that’s a shocking reversal from the post IPO buying frenzy that made Rivian the sixth largest IPO in US market history.
