0:00

hey everyone me kevin here so a lot of

0:01

you might remember that i have been

0:02

extremely bullish on lucid from the spac

0:05

merger on i expressed my frustrations of

0:09

lucid having its momentum swing way up

0:11

and then falling away down and

0:13

potentially way over selling back to

0:15

like 17 a share and for probably four to

0:19

five months i was asked kevin when is

0:21

this stock ever going to go up am i just

0:23

holding bags here thanks a lot kevin

0:26

what do i do and i kept saying folks

0:28

just wait until deliveries start because

0:32

once deliveries start hype and momentum

0:34

comes back and folks that's what we have

0:36

right now deliveries have started we

0:38

have hype momentum and the stock has

0:40

literally gone to the moon it's up over

0:42

450 percent this year it is way way way

0:45

way up over 55 dollars per share and

0:48

right now it feels like there's nothing

0:50

holding it back because we're in the

0:52

midst of an eevee super cycle but in

0:53

this video i want to talk about

0:55

something that a lot of us have

0:56

forgotten because we last talked about

0:58

this on march

1:00

2nd well the ev market turned to crap

1:03

in march

1:04

in april

1:06

in may

1:07

and barely started recovering in july

1:10

and so revisiting this piece of

1:12

information here i think is especially

1:14

critical because of an announcement this

1:17

week by

1:18

some big silicon valley tech company and

1:22

this is bullish for lucid now i'm going

1:24

to talk about my price trajectory for

1:27

lucid in just a moment but first

1:30

let's hit this clip here because this is

1:31

really really important

1:33

right after i mentioned that you should

1:35

check out the program on building your

1:36

wealth link down below stocks and

1:37

psychology money get all my buy sell

1:39

alerts there's suggestions for you there

1:41

is a black friday coupon and of course

1:42

you can build your wealth through real

1:43

estate investing property management

1:45

youtube videos being an agent property

1:47

management rental renovations all of

1:49

that linked down below check those out

1:50

okay let's jump in over here so this is

1:52

going to look a little funny because

1:53

you're gonna have two kevin's here uh

1:55

but that's just the way it is you got

1:56

old kevin and uh whatever this is right

1:59

here and uh let's go ahead and listen to

2:01

about 15 seconds of this listen closely

2:04

here to what peter rollinson says

2:05

always connected with an ethernet

2:08

gigabit ring

2:09

super connected car two terabytes of

2:12

data on board storage super cloud

2:14

connectivity this is the perfect

2:16

platform for any um

2:19

um silicon valley

2:21

big company

2:23

to prove out its ad software i think

2:26

okay what is ad software autonomous

2:29

driving

2:30

software what is a potential big silicon

2:33

valley along with peter rollinson's

2:35

nudge nudge wink wink that he did there

2:38

just replay it if you missed that nudge

2:40

nudge wink wink

2:41

how about apple

2:42

folks literally this week apple said hey

2:46

we don't plan to have a full

2:47

self-driving vehicle until 2025

2:50

but we might partner with another

2:52

vehicle manufacturer beforehand we might

2:55

partner with another manufacturer

2:56

between 2022 and 2023

2:59

now they didn't exactly say why

3:01

but peter rollinson might have the

3:04

answer here hey we've got the perfect

3:06

stack where you might be able to test

3:09

out your ad autonomous driving software

3:12

if you're a big silicon valley company

3:14

come on folks it's either google it's

3:17

apple

3:18

uh maybe maybe it's um

3:21

qualcomm but actually i don't or or

3:23

nvidia but let me see where's qualcomm

3:25

uh headquarters let's see that oh

3:27

they're headquartered in san diego

3:30

that's interesting did not know that

3:34

so but anyway that's in my opinion

3:36

pretty bullish doesn't really matter

3:37

what company it is it's very very

3:39

bullish for lucid by the way

3:44

nvidia is also headquartered above santa

3:47

clara so uh or above san jose in santa

3:50

clara so i don't know that it really

3:52

matters which of these it is

3:55

maybe it's not even one of these but

3:56

you've got some pretty big options there

3:58

and that was a pretty clear nudge-nudge

4:00

wink wink in my opinion so to me

4:02

that's pretty bullish on lucid imagine

4:05

if lucid announced a partnership with

4:07

with apple

4:08

this stock would just go haywire it

4:11

would absolutely go

4:13

bonkers no guarantees total speculation

4:16

obviously just putting pieces of the

4:17

puzzle together here but what do we know

4:19

about price action here recently and is

4:22

this a stock that we want to potentially

4:23

fomo in now because the upside is way

4:25

higher well look lucid right now is a 90

4:28

billion dollar valuation it's somewhere

4:31

around 111 the size of tesla

4:33

and we've got in my opinion a few

4:36

negative catalysts coming up that could

4:38

potentially hurt the stock now that does

4:40

not mean i'm anti the stock while there

4:42

have been some frustrations with with

4:44

how deliveries are being processed at

4:45

the company

4:46

i've been a big fan of the stock now i

4:49

traded a lot of my investment in the

4:51

stock i traded a lot with call options

4:53

and i traded a lot with sold puts but

4:55

more importantly what we want to look at

4:57

here is what do we actually think is

4:59

going to happen upon negative catalysts

5:01

let's talk about that by looking at the

5:03

chart so right now we're sitting at a

5:06

55-21

5:08

this is a company that projected to

5:10

deliver around 520 vehicles here in 2021

5:14

uh and then potentially take off in 2022

5:17

in fact what i'll do is i'll pull up my

5:19

spreadsheet where i compare uh lucid uh

5:24

actually i don't even know that i've

5:26

revealed my lucid spreadsheet before so

5:27

here's a treat for you uh and i also

5:30

talk about how i built do my fundamental

5:32

analysis and all that in stocks and

5:33

psychology money seriously use that

5:34

black friday coupon because the price is

5:35

just going to go up from there so

5:37

initially we were expecting to deliver a

5:39

thousand vehicles in 2021 we think that

5:41

ramp's probably going to be closer to

5:42

520. so i i think it's there's a big

5:46

risk here uh downside miss risk so i'm

5:50

putting this here because this would be

5:52

reported in january of 2022 right if

5:56

we're expecting a potential

5:58

uh

5:59

partnership announcement by a company

6:00

like apple or some other silicon valley

6:02

tech company sometime in 2022 then

6:05

there's a good chance you're going to

6:06

have a really big negative catalyst for

6:08

lucid stock potentially in january now

6:11

they might kill it but i don't think

6:13

they will i think that they're going to

6:14

substantially miss on deliveries

6:17

it's very very important that they

6:19

started delivering because nobody

6:21

actually thought they would begin

6:22

delivering vehicles i had faith that

6:23

they would deliver vehicles i also had

6:25

faith the stock would go up once they

6:26

started delivering vehicles i did not

6:28

think it was going to momentum move as

6:30

much as it did i will tell you that and

6:32

when it ran from like 22 to 30 i thought

6:35

okay cool this is the beginning of the

6:36

move of of deliver vehicles being

6:38

delivered and that's it no it ended up

6:40

almost doubling from there right like 55

6:43

it's incredible but anyway

6:44

i do believe that that means right now

6:46

we're really built not on fundamentals

6:48

we're built on fundamentals plus a lot

6:50

of hype and that hype can get hurt on a

6:53

deliveries miss so if we end up with a

6:54

deliveries miss and let's say what if we

6:56

only deliver 420 vehicles right and

7:00

that's less than even the revised 520

7:02

expected for this year that's not going

7:04

to be as ideal because what people are

7:06

going to do in my opinion potentially in

7:08

the q1 report the earnings report is

7:11

they might take and extrapolate their

7:13

production rate here depending on what

7:14

kind of guide loose it gives and if the

7:17

guide or which almost certainly will be

7:19

the production rate are less than that

7:21

20 000 vehicle target for 2022

7:25

which 20 000 vehicles

7:27

that's a little less than 2 000 per

7:29

month

7:30

1666 vehicles if they're on a slower

7:33

pace than doing 1600 vehicles per month

7:36

which we substantially expect them to be

7:38

i mean think about it if they're trying

7:39

to get 500 out the rest of the year

7:42

starting in september when they first

7:43

made that projection that means

7:45

september october november december in

7:46

four months they got about a hundred

7:48

vehicles out a month they've got to

7:50

somehow 16x their production

7:53

realistically by q2 at the latest of

7:56

2022 otherwise the stock market's gonna

7:58

look and go whoa whoa wait a minute you

7:59

guys are ramping way

8:02

way too slowly this is not good

8:04

i think that is a potential

8:07

massive downside risk for lucid now

8:10

don't get me wrong i think there are a

8:11

lot of really cool upsides for lucid in

8:14

the long term uh a lot of lucid though

8:16

valuation wise is going to come down to

8:18

that value per vehicle we know lucid is

8:21

rushing to try to get to an under 80 000

8:23

a dollar vehicle let's say that they get

8:26

to a 79 000 vehicle they're selling

8:28

their 130s they're 140 000 vehicles 150

8:31

169 000 whatever they're selling

8:34

vehicles in the spectrum let's just go

8:36

ahead and say the average by 2025 is 80

8:39

000. i still think this is very very

8:42

bullish here that they would get to an

8:44

80 000 dollar average sale per vehicle

8:48

but let's say they do end up delivering

8:50

200 000 vehicles by then

8:52

if if they pull that off

8:54

throw in a little bit just a little less

8:56

than three percent for leases here that

8:57

would get us to about 16.4 billion

8:59

dollars of revenue if they had a 25

9:02

expense margin which is

9:04

not as

9:05

good as as tesla but this would still be

9:08

very very good in fact i'm going to

9:10

adjust honestly i'm going to adjust this

9:11

down and say that they have 80 in cost

9:13

which puts them a little bit closer to

9:15

where neo even sits today

9:17

uh so so that means they're spending 80

9:19

percent of every dollar in the vehicle

9:20

i'm actually producing the vehicle

9:22

uh and we throw some other things in

9:23

here like interest taxes whatever

9:26

now we divide by the amount of shares

9:28

outstanding the company has which the

9:30

company has uh

9:32

like twice as many shares outstanding as

9:34

rivie and it's worth noting that and the

9:36

price today is eighty dollars let's say

9:40

then at a hundred times multiple in 2025

9:44

with these figures

9:46

lucid would be worth 32 dollars a share

9:48

at 100 times multiple in 2025 well wait

9:51

a minute it's like twice that right now

9:54

exactly so let's let's now adjust this a

9:57

little bit so we don't sound like a big

9:58

old bear let's go back to that 75

10:02

expense ratio which means 25 percent

10:04

gross profit margin let's now assume

10:07

they bump their average vehicle

10:09

revenue to 90 000

10:12

and they still deliver 200 000 vehicles

10:14

by 2025. at 100 times future earnings

10:17

that puts them at about an 81 dollar

10:19

stock so you could see how quickly the

10:22

valuation can change based on that value

10:25

per vehicle and their ramp rate

10:28

everything about lucid's valuation comes

10:30

down to that ramp rate if that ramp rate

10:32

beats

10:33

lucid stock will do very well if that

10:36

ramp rate misses it will do very poorly

10:39

during those misses until it catches

10:41

back up to pace so with that said i

10:44

personally believe the biggest and most

10:47

challenging times for an automaker are

10:50

your first

10:51

years of ramping and then when you start

10:54

expanding to new factories which we know

10:56

there'll be a saudi arabia factory at

10:58

some point here as well once we get this

11:00

arizona facility to scale so i don't

11:03

want to sound like a lucid bear by

11:05

saying that i think right now at 55 57

11:09

whatever

11:10

it's it's kind of gone a little nuts

11:12

which is fine the stock market does that

11:15

but as an investor and lucid you know if

11:17

you're an investor and lucid i would

11:18

just think to myself is it is it

11:20

potentially okay to take some profits to

11:22

sell some calls for q1 or whatever and

11:25

uh and if i get called out oh well if i

11:27

end up selling a well if it runs to 80

11:30

you're gonna have to not feel bad about

11:31

that in somo right

11:33

but if we end up pulling back down to

11:35

some of the support levels we have which

11:37

these are long-term support levels not

11:38

necessarily recent support levels

11:40

a lot of these levels were drawn way

11:42

back on our candlesticks

11:44

but if we end up drawing back down to

11:46

say 37 or we draw back down to where we

11:48

have multiple different supports between

11:50

29 and 30 or worst case scenario we go

11:53

back to levels like the channel that we

11:55

used to have that 24 to 23 channel

11:58

if we go to any of these levels here

12:01

it's going to be a lot more attractive

12:03

of a company to invest in because at 36

12:06

dollars worst case scenario if they only

12:08

do three uh 200 000 vehicles hopefully

12:10

they do at least that at 80 000 with an

12:12

80 expense ratio by 2025 at least your

12:15

break even you're not losing in 2025

12:17

right and there's still that opium that

12:19

hopefully propels it if you can get it

12:21

down here i feel like you you start

12:23

getting a margin of safety realistically

12:25

the real margin of safety is when you're

12:27

around 23 24 a share because this is

12:30

where you could really go dirty if you

12:31

go with 80 000 per vehicle you go with

12:34

an 80 expense

12:36

and we go with a just a miss here we go

12:38

with 150 000 vehicles uh er we're gonna

12:43

get a little bit closer see look at that

12:44

now you're at 21 per share now you're at

12:47

much closer to that lower level and

12:49

you're really assuming some in my

12:50

opinion worst case scenarios i mean if

12:52

they can't in uh one two three

12:56

four full years

12:58

get to 150 000 vehicles which is

13:00

somewhere around 12 000 vehicles a month

13:02

12 to 13 000 vehicles a month that's bad

13:06

and there should be plenty of writing on

13:07

the wall before then that the company is

13:09

just totally not on track but i i don't

13:12

know that loose it's not going to be

13:14

able to pull that off i'm optimistic

13:16

and i also think you're going to want to

13:18

be around for that potential apple

13:19

catalyst it doesn't necessarily have to

13:22

be apple it could also be nvidia or

13:24

something else

13:25

i think it's interesting and and i think

13:27

it's a reasonably bullish i would not

13:29

buy the stock at these values though

13:31

because of this excitement

13:33

because even that excitement will wane

13:35

once the announcement is made but anyway

13:37

these are just some thoughts to think

13:38

about if you like the way i think about

13:39

stocks do consider checking out the

13:41

programs on building your wealth link

13:42

down below make sure you use that black

13:43

friday coupon that does expire on the

13:45

price goes up at 11 59 pm on friday so

13:47

do it before you forget i always know

13:48

that feeling like oh yeah i'll do it

13:50

before then but then you forget and it's

13:51

like why didn't i just do it earlier now

13:53

i missed it

13:54

anyway thank you so much for watching

13:56

and we'll see in the next one bye
