Multiple Sources Lead to a Down Day

|


$LARZ (Luminar Technologies Inc.)

 

On the Tuesday, Dec. 15th, 2020 the Hammerstone Feed alerted users to a news story that had recently been published by a global news outlet.  The CEO of Intel’s ($INTC) vision-based self-driving car subsidiary Mobileye stated that they were planning to build their own LIDAR sensors instead of purchasing them from others.  His comments conflicted with a technology-only new source article from 11/30 in which Luminar’s ($LAZR) CEO stated his company will supply lidar sensors for Mobileye. As the Mobileye contradictory statements picked up momentum on Wall Street, a short seller activist fund added fuel to the fire with a negative $LAZR tweet, sending $LAZR shares down another tranche, almost -15% shortly before 3 PM.  Whether it is making our users aware of an article from a major news outlet or a comment from an influential investor over social media, Hammerstone’s goal to give its users the knowledge, context & timeliness to make educated decisions.
