Can supply chain constraints hold these top EV names back this quarter?

4 Hot EV Stocks To Keep An Eye On This Week

After a record-setting week, the broader stock market continues to power forward going into November. Among the industries to know amid the current uptrend in the market now would be electric vehicle (EV) stocks. After all, EVs are part of a global solution to the ongoing climate crisis. So much so that countries across the globe are already beginning to set EV sales goals among other related incentives. To keep track of the industry’s current pace, investors would be watching the latest round of month delivery figures.

For example, we could take a look at the likes of Li Auto (NASDAQ: LI). Earlier today, the Chinese EV firm posted solid numbers in its latest delivery update. In detail, Li Auto delivered 7,649 EVs in October, marking a 107.2% year-over-year leap. Notably, it is the fastest Chinese EV manufacturer to reach the production milestone of 100,000 vehicles, according to the company’s estimates. All in all, Li Auto appears to be dealing with the ongoing semiconductor chip shortage accordingly.

At the same time, there are also upcoming names such as Lucid Motors (NASDAQ: LCID) and Rivian to consider as well. On one hand, Lucid appears to be the new hot name in the EV game today. Thanks in part to an Environmental Protection Agency accreditation of its industry-leading single-charge EV range, LCID stock is now up by over 50% in the past month. On the other hand, Amazon (NASDAQ: AMZN) reportedly holds a 20% stake in emerging EV player Rivian. All in all, investors and organizations alike seem to be eyeing the EV industry closely. On that note, here are four top EV stocks to watch in the stock market this week.
