Electric vehicle (EV) stocks cool - will Volkswagen rise?EV stocks compared to Volkswagen - Nio, Tesla, Li Auto, Workhorse Group, Kandi Technologies, Arcimoto, BYD
Volkswagen recently drew attention with its plans to compete in the EV market, and investors bought into the news. Look at a 2021 daily chart, and it is striking that seven popular EV stocks are all negative for the year. These stocks made sky-high gains in 2020, so this recent "cooling off" makes sense. Volkswagen is a newcomer in the EV market, yet it is an established global brand.
Most people agree that EV companies have high growth potential, but investors should check prices before buying. This chart shows price performance over the past 12 months, and after this year's selling most EV stocks still have sky-high gains. Technically, looking at individual stocks, some are at support and others have room to drop. The next earnings reports will provide a reality check, and here are some questions to consider:
Did these companies make significant progress, revenue increase, or earnings growth, to warrant such dramatic stock price increases? Did investor sentiment and global stimulus money lead to "follow the crowd" buying? Will EV stocks head lower in 2021 if interest rates rise? How do the P/E ratios and EV/EBITDA ratios compare? Will sentiment lead Volkswagen to outperform other EV stocks this year? Will Volkswagen be a top EV stock over the next five years?
Notes:
* All companies directly produce EV's
* Warren Buffet has a stake in BYD
* Scale is based on U.S. Dollar price change
NIO Wave AnalysisNIO ended wave 2 and started wave 3 in the beginning of March with the @32 low, but now NIO has broken out of the 3rd wave. Arguable the 3rd wave is still in progress, but unless Nio bounces at the previous $32 level (resulting in a bullish double bottom), any new lows made would make this a continuation of wave 2 with no clear end in sight. Long term I am bullish on Nio but short term if we break below $32 things will get very choppy.
BUS.V -- Consolidating before another leg upBUS.V had a major news release today about the US expansion that went unnoticed by the market (so far). The company is working towards NASDAQ uplisting and steadily expanding/adding new contracts. Another important factor is that it meets the "Buy American" policy criteria. It should do very well in the US, especially when uplisting is completed.

Grande West Enters into Strategic U.S. Distribution Partnership with ABC Companies
VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / February 22, 2021 / Grande West Transportation Group Inc. (TSXV:BUS)(OTCQX:BUSXF)(FRA:6LG) ("Grande West" or the "Company"), a leading supplier of electric, CNG, gas and clean diesel buses, today announced that it has entered into a strategic U.S. distribution agreement with ABC Companies ("ABC"), a leading provider of motorcoach and transit equipment in North America.
The ABC distributorship supports Grande West's focus on U.S. expansion as it begins marketing the fully Buy America compliant Vicinity™ heavy duty mid-size bus, the Vicinity Lightning™ EV and Vicinity™ LT light duty models to new and existing customers.
Under the new agreement, ABC Companies, a leading provider of motorcoach, transit and specialty passenger transport equipment in the USA and Canada, will distribute the manufacturer's Vicinity™ heavy-duty vehicles throughout the Western United States from Texas to California. The Vicinity line fills in key transit and private shuttle markets within the ABC portfolio of new vehicles for these locations, enhancing the offering to current customers while expanding to other sectors.
"As we continue to expand the ABC product portfolio, our main goal is to provide more choice and price points for operators," said Roman Cornell, President ABC Companies. "Our customers' needs drive our strategic priorities and after an extensive search, we found the Grande West Vicinity product line achieved best in class results across a number of the Federal Transit Authorities Altoona testing procedures. Our distribution agreement with Grande West enables ABC to offer its proven track record of customer sales, service and support with a proven, high-quality Buy America compliant product line, inclusive of their innovative new battery-electric vehicles.
"The Grande West Vicinity lineup offers added flexibility and choice to our transit customer base who already utilize ABC's parts and maintenance services, providing a great fit for our large base of operators. With decades of experience in sales, technical, repair and maintenance support, ABC is committed to supporting heavy duty mid-size market users who can leverage the expertise of a proven market leader like Grande West," concluded Cornell.
"We are proud to announce our distribution partnership with ABC, representing an excellent addition to our reach in the United States, particularly as we begin to market our Buy America compliant Vicinity™ buses to new and existing customers," added William Trainer, President and Chief Executive Officer of Grande West. "In particular, ABC's well-established reputation for EV sales in the California market will prove invaluable as we bring our new Vicinity Lightning™ EV bus to market. We look forward to working closely with Roman and the ABC team going forward."
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.
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.

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.

Currently, China is the largest market for EVs in the world. In large part, this is a reflection of government policy which is looking to reduce emissions to improve the environment. As a result, the Chinese government has offered a variety of incentives including rebates, tax credits, and quicker approval times for vehicle registration.
