What Else?

Higher interest rates can increase the cost of capital for electric vehicle companies like Lucid Group. This can impact their ability to secure favorable terms for raising funds through debt or equity offerings. Elevated borrowing costs can hamper the company's growth plans and investment in research and development, manufacturing capacity and infrastructure.

Higher interest rates can also influence the cost of raw materials, production equipment and other inputs within the electric vehicle supply chain. If borrowing costs rise for suppliers, it could potentially lead to higher component prices, affecting Lucid Group's manufacturing costs and overall profitability.

According to data from Benzinga Pro, LCID has a 52-week high of $21.78 and a 52-week low of $5.46.
