Why Nio Stock Just Rocketed by More Than 9%
In just two days, Chinese electric vehicle manufacturer Nio (NYSE: NIO) is scheduled to report its first-quarter earnings-- at least, according to Nasdaq.com, it is. The company hasn't officially announced its release date yet, and other financial data providers point out that, seeing as Nio reported its Q1 earnings on May 28 in two of the past three years, it's more likely to report closer to that date this year as well. Is there a good reason to buy Nio stock ahead of earnings?

Why Rivian Is Helping Drive Electric Vehicle Stocks Higher Today
Shares of several U.S.-based electric vehicle (EV) companies are moving higher today and investors can probably thank Rivian Automotive (NASDAQ: RIVN) for that.

After the entire EV sector has seen recent stock declines driven by manufacturing and cost headwinds, Rivian CEO RJ Scaringe injected some new confidence with a filing yesterday showing he just bought more than $1 million in his company's stock.

Why Boeing Stock Bounced Back Today
Aerospace behemoth Boeing (NYSE: BA) stock took a 2.5% hit on Monday after Bloomberg reported that China Southern Airlines (NYSE: ZNH) is delaying acceptance of deliveries of more than 100 Boeing 737 MAX jetliners to 2025 or later. The good news is that Boeing stock is turning around and regaining altitude this morning, up 3.5% as of 11:40 a.m. ET on a note from JPMorgan that argues the news is "not as stark" as it first appeared to be. Contradicting Bloomberg's read on the situation, JP observes that China Southern not saying it plans to accept deliveries through 2024 is not the same thing as China Southern saying it will not accept the planes, reports TheFly.com today.
