Update on $ACTC, I Remain EXTRA BullishI've corrected my last idea ( ) on the formation of the Bullish pennant and the date of my PT.
MACD and RSI on the 3-month are still looking very tasty. As I described in my last $ACTC post, Proterra has a strong presence in the EV space- owning 50% of the North American market share within EV bus sales.
Short interest has also DOUBLED in a two-week timeframe. nasdaqtrader.com
This is a 10yr+ hold for me. Crazy how little conversation is going around about this hidden gem!
FSR: Solid Technical Play on Breakout From ConsildationFSR has been consolidating since early december between 14-16 range along with forming a downtrend line since it's highs in late November. Stock is gapping up pre market breaking through that $17 resistance level on Morgan Stanley launching coverage with a $27 price target. I am targeting that same level as a profit taking spot for this trade. This is a something where I am going into it as a trade, but I could see it turning into an investment for me. EVs are the future, but there is far too much froth in the market and not all these EVs will make it.
Switchback Energy - two possivle routs - Q1Switchback Energy - two possivle routs - Q1 - depends if it can break out on top of the tirangle or will make a second round to build a bullish flag.
Expecting strong support around 50 days EMAIt's rare to see NIO bouncing around its 50 days moving average during such a booming EV market. As I see the bullish momentum continuing I expect to see strong support and bounce back in NIO stock. I could also see the bounce back being even faster, in the case of NIO releasing especially good delivery numbers for February.

The agreement also represents a commitment by Greenland to invest in the U.S. as a key center of innovation in the global electric vehicle market.
Under the agreement, both parties intend to establish a strategic partnership to fully cooperate on technology sharing and supply chain management for the production of electric industrial vehicles in the U.S.

Is CANOO the next big thing ? Hyundai motor was in early-stage talks with Apple about potentially working together to develop an electric car. - Report CNBC
So what's the connection with Canoo? Canoo and Hyundai announced a partnership last year to develop an EV platform, which would likely use Canoo's proprietary "skateboard" platform architecture. Canoo said availability would begin in 2022, with scaled production and launch planned for 2023.
If all goes well, I reckon CANOO will keep climbing to beyond $50.

Proterra Pennant Play! Another EV Company Gearing Up For A Move Proterra NASDAQ:ACTC designs and manufactures electric transit buses and electric charging systems. I am not going to do a big write-up on Proterra, this play for me would be a shorter term swing/breakout play. The company looks solid, their customer base is quite impressive and spans across North America. They are a very diverse company and have established a strong foothold in the heavy-duty electric transportation industry.
Chart: Beautiful pennant has developed over the past 31 days and looks to me like we could rally back to $30 if the market complies. I will be watching ACTC for volume. As can be seen from the chart once it was announced Proterra was going to be merging as ACIC we had a huge rally to $31 and then a cool off with a base forming at $24-$25 range. I will be looking to enter on breakout of the pennant with common stock and depending on the IV I may enter 2/19 $25 calls (currently $1.3/1.5).
If the pennant breaks down watch to see if ACTC finds support at $23 lvl where it has demonstrated a solid bottom already.
$SOLO Interesting Volume Shelf / CoilingCurrently coiling around the 21 D EMA, $8 volume shelf.
My medium term thesis that EV and related tickers are getting ready for a short term rally, is further supported by the price action in solo.

Morgan Stanley $QS Buy and $70 price targetFor Morgan Stanley’s Jonas, involvement in QS stock comes with high risk, but also high potential reward. In fact, the analyst calls it, "The Biotech of Battery Development."
"We believe their solid state technology addresses a very big impediment in battery science (energy density) that, if successful, can create extremely high value to a wide range of customers in the auto industry and beyond. The risks of moving from a single layer cell to a production car are high, but we think these are balanced by the commercial potential and the role of Volkswagen to help underwrite the early manufacturing ramp," Jonas explained.
Noting that QS is a stock for the long haul, Jonas rates the shares an Overweight (i.e. Buy), and his $70 price target indicates confidence in an upside of 28% for one-year time horizon.
Morgan Stanley $FSR Buy and $27 price targetFisker, is based in Southern California, the epicenter of so much of our ground-breaking tech industries. Fisker’s focus is on solid-state battery tech, a growing alternative to the lithium-ion batteries that most EVs depend on. While more expensive that the older lithium-based systems, solid state batteries are safer and offer higher energy densities.
For EVs, solid-state batteries offer faster charging times, longer range per charge, and potentially lower battery weight – all important factors in vehicle performance.
Morgan Stanley’s Jonas is impressed by this company, describing the ‘value proposition of Fisker’ as “…design, time to market, clean sheet user experience and management expertise,” and saying that the 4Q22 launch schedule for the Ocean is likely to be met.
“Fisker is specifically targeting the personal owned/passenger car business as opposed to commercial oriented end markets, where emotive design and user experience matter more. Additionally, the company wants to create an all-digital experience from the website to the app to the HMI in the car and continued customer engagement through its flexible lease product,” Jonas added.
In line with his upbeat outlook on the company (and the car), Jonas rates Fisker an Overweight (i.e. Buy), and sets a $27 price target suggesting an upside of 42% for the coming year.

ALMONTY INDUSTRIES INC (ALMTF)ALMTF has been trending in a very reassuring shape since July 2020 between the 2 think black non-horizontal lines. We might be on the newer $0.5252 horizontal trend line since the start of this year. Volumes are low, so it remains to be seen how well, and for how long we test this line. We might well fall back to $0.50. On the positive side, though, I think we are headed to $0.57 by the end of the month. There is not much news about Tungsten of late, but Almonty is indeed one of the largest producers of Tungsten outside China and, given the EV mania, it might only be a matter of time before Tungsten is made a mention of on CNBC.
