0:00

hey everyone me kevin here okay let's

0:01

talk about lordstown motors so

0:03

last week lawrencetown motors got

0:04

absolutely devastated and

0:06

they just popped a little bit in the

0:07

market today and i want to talk a little

0:09

bit uh

0:10

you know about why and what's happening

0:12

here so let's start by

0:13

just looking back here over the past few

0:16

days so this has been lordstown it's

0:18

kind of been moving a little bit in the

0:20

momentum place

0:21

and we've seen it have some pain

0:24

specifically last week where we've had

0:26

sharper declines where we've gone from

0:28

1566 to all of a sudden suddenly uh

0:32

well it's all of a sudden down to about

0:34

10 dollars and 68 cents we had

0:36

this massive decline here uh i mean five

0:39

points on a 15

0:40

i mean it is massive we've got i mean

0:42

33ish percent decline here we had

0:44

another

0:44

we tried climbing back to about 11.65

0:47

quickly fell back down to about 9

0:48

20. today all of a sudden though we did

0:50

get a little bit of a boost from about

0:52

the 9 30 levels we uh opened up right

0:54

around

0:55

yeah it looks like we opened about 9 22

0:57

to 9 30

0:58

and right now we're trading at a high of

1:01

10.64 cents

1:03

within this last hour candlestick here

1:05

up 7.12 percent currently sitting at a

1:07

last price of 9.92

1:09

and questions are coming up as to why

1:11

lordstown is popping a little bit today

1:12

here's an article explaining slightly

1:15

why but first i want to mention

1:17

why first we saw a decline last week

1:20

one of the big reasons we saw lordstown

1:22

just get utterly pummeled

1:23

last week has to do with an 8k they

1:25

released which is just a current report

1:27

where in the current report

1:29

they declared and we pulled this up on a

1:31

live stream last week it was pretty

1:32

blunt you could see this on their

1:33

investor relations page

1:35

they they declared that they are unable

1:38

to include any or or project

1:42

any opportunities or abilities to

1:44

actually deliver

1:45

vehicles this year so no vehicles to get

1:49

delivered in 2021

1:50

they also said they would only have

1:52

enough money to in 2021 maybe produce

1:55

one or two beta vehicles

1:56

and that in 2022 they'd be able to move

2:00

into production

2:01

if they were able to raise more money

2:03

but to be able to raise more money

2:05

they'd probably either have to issue

2:06

more debt or they would have to issue

2:08

more shares and sell those

2:10

which would dilute everybody who's

2:11

investing in the company so that was

2:13

really bad news in fact they even

2:15

specifically recommended that people

2:17

don't invest in the company

2:18

it was kind of like a cya you know and

2:20

then they also said there's a serious

2:22

going concern for the company

2:23

that is uh sort of a fancy accounting

2:25

term for basically like we might not

2:27

survive we might go bankrupt so anyway

2:30

uh

2:31

now this just came out here and it here

2:34

says this is from street insider

2:36

lordstown has binding orders for first

2:38

two years of production

2:39

okay great so let's hear this because we

2:42

also just had the cfo and the ceo

2:44

leave which is also not good so

2:47

here's finally like a little bit of a

2:49

breath of

2:51

fresh air all right so detroit

2:54

laura's town motors has firm and binding

2:57

orders

2:58

for the first two years of production of

3:00

its electric pickup truck the president

3:01

said on tuesday

3:02

sending shares up eleven percent

3:04

currently up about seven percent

3:06

uh quote currently we have enough orders

3:08

for production for 2021 and 2022.

3:11

personally this is a little um sounds a

3:14

little convenient to say right after an

3:16

investor relations release

3:18

you said we're out of money and we can't

3:21

produce anything

3:22

so i want to make this this very clear

3:25

and this is the first time i'm reading

3:26

this but i want to make this very clear

3:28

when a president of a company that just

3:29

got wrecked comes out and says hey

3:32

guys we have enough orders for 2021 and

3:34

22 production

3:36

i'm thinking to myself that's great how

3:38

are you going to pay for it

3:40

given that you just told the world you

3:42

don't have enough money

3:45

so then he says i don't know the exact

3:48

okay hold on let's get rid of this

3:49

i don't know the exact facts of the

3:51

legal aspect of that

3:53

but they're basically binding orders

3:54

that are committed here in the last two

3:56

weeks

3:57

reconfirmed orders he added asked when

4:00

they were binding

4:01

they're pretty solid and i think that's

4:03

on the light side or conservative side

4:05

what kind of crop is this i'm sorry but

4:07

like wait

4:09

the president said at an automotive

4:12

press conference the firm

4:14

these are those are firm orders we have

4:16

for those two years

4:18

i don't know the exact facts of the

4:20

legal aspect of that what does that even

4:21

mean

4:22

but they're basically binding orders

4:23

that are committed here in the last two

4:25

weeks and reconfirmed

4:26

okay so you call people up like hey you

4:28

still good with your pre-order on on

4:30

your truck

4:31

for lordstown because we need to put out

4:33

a good press release

4:34

call me jaded okay call me jaded that's

4:36

just what i'm seeing right now here

4:38

in march lordstown shared slump after

4:40

hidden right hinberg had attacked them

4:42

back in march

4:43

uh we on monday heard that the ceo and

4:45

cfo left

4:47

they resigned and acknowledged they

4:49

overstated the quality of pre-orders in

4:52

the trucks

4:53

and i think that's why you're having the

4:55

president now come out and say well we

4:56

have

4:56

at least two years of good pre-orders

4:59

sec has asked the company for

5:01

information related

5:02

to their pre-orders gm owns a small

5:05

stake in the startup

5:06

well they also owned a small stake in

5:07

nicola

5:10

basically got gifted a steak nicola

5:14

okay yeah to me honestly this is not

5:17

actually great news for lordstown like

5:19

when i read that

5:20

i'm like dude why would you hold a press

5:23

conference and go

5:24

yeah there are basically orders that are

5:27

good

5:28

like what what are you saying

5:31

you're the president of lordstown motors

5:33

and you're coming out to a press release

5:35

and you don't have the proper details

5:37

you got to be kidding me so

5:39

that makes me nervous okay we get two

5:41

executives that leave

5:42

we get uh the attorneys for the company

5:45

putting together sec documents that are

5:47

saying we're basically going bankrupt

5:48

you get a president that comes out and

5:50

says we basically have enough orders for

5:52

2021 and 2022 but their sec report said

5:55

even if they have orders they might not

5:57

have money to actually produce those

5:58

orders

5:59

they barely have enough money to get

6:00

their beta vehicles done this year

6:02

and they'll have to raise a lot of money

6:04

going into 2022

6:07

which is also not good for the

6:08

shareholders so all in all

6:10

big big lordstown motors bottom line

6:13

here

6:14

i'm not happy i'm nervous i'm not a

6:17

shareholder

6:18

uh i uh i dumped all of my shares

6:21

well i had a few options we had a few

6:23

swing options and i think i got out with

6:25

like an 1800

6:26

loss uh right before like the big red

6:29

candle stick came so i felt

6:30

really good about that not that the

6:32

company went down but really good that i

6:34

was able to get out

6:35

but look at this this bounce right here

6:37

we've got the bottom

6:38

we know we're trying to get back to that

6:39

18 level here but folks

6:41

this this lid is going to get moved down

6:44

hardcore

6:45

uh if we get uh if we continue to get

6:47

this sort of um

6:48

bad news coming out of the town now part

6:50

of you might wonder like well how bad

6:52

can it get like can it really get any

6:54

worse

6:55

yes they could literally sit in the

6:57

toilet and then issue shares and chairs

6:59

and chairs

7:00

and this ends up becoming a penny stock

7:01

sub five dollars so yeah

7:03

and i'm not trying to like fud lordstown

7:05

okay just trying to be transparent so

7:07

anyway those are my thoughts

7:08

it makes me a little nervous and don't

7:10

get me wrong like i

7:11

love the concept that lord sounds going

7:13

for but that kind of press release

7:16

that's that's a bs press release okay

7:19

like i call bs there all right folks

7:20

thank you for watching this on lordstown

7:22

let's move on
