Nikola - Down Over 80% - $NKLANot a good look for the Nikola Company and its shareholders (if there are any left) after they just received their first Sell rating from wallstreet by Barrons with a price target of $15.00. $NKLA is down over 80% from it's June ATH less than just 100 days ago.
The sell off began just after Nikola's deal with GM, when it was pointed out that Nikola's founder Trevor Milton wasn't telling the truth at a 2016 event when he said that the Nikola One truck on the stage "fully functions." Nikola now says the truck never worked. It was just a promotional video of the truck. In the video the truck looks like it was functioning but was in reality rolling down a hill. You can see why shareholders aren't pleased with this. Now Nikola argues that this was old news and irrelevant because Nikola is no longer marketing the Nikola One and is now marketing a working prototype of the Nikola Two. So we never even got to see a real fully functioning Nikola 1, but don't worry, that's not important because we're now focusing on the Nikola 2. While I am rooting for them (always for technological advancement), this wasn't the founders brightest moment, and he has now stepped down.
Along with the working on the Nikola 2, the company is now struggling to find partners to build a planned network of hydrogen fueling stations across the country. They were previously in talks with BP for these and with help on logistics but these are now rumored to be on hold. We're waiting to see if these deals are made and for the stock sell off to finish before buying in on this one.
TA:
Target $15.00-16.00 area if can find support is the area we're looking at but don't try to catch a falling knife just yet. Wait for support.
