They're trying to produce the first solid-state lithium battery for EVs. This stock has huge potential as it partners with Tesla.
It went public in Nov. 2020, a time when anything EVs rallied. This jumped 50% when it IPO'd. Hype. Then, shortsellers called it a scam. The company hasn't made money or profits. No revenues. By late 2022, shares were obliterated along with many EV shares of this era like Lordstown Motors.
Premium contentQuantumScape (QS) is a company at the forefront of the energy storage industry. Specializing in the development of solid-state lithium-metal batteries, the company aims to revolutionize electric vehicle (EV) energy storage. By providing batteries that offer higher energy density, quicker charging times, and longer lifecycle than traditional lithium-ion batteries, QuantumScape aspires to become a game-changer in the EV market. However, as an emerging company in a highly competitive and fast-evolving sector, QuantumScape’s stock performance remains closely watched by investors. Social media mentions are up 2470% in the past 24h.
So many chased these EV SPACs to find the next Tesla. Many some will be gems, but for now the whole sector has collapsed. QS was one of the better SPACs, but their projections are aggressive and don't account for failure. Shares are down 76% from highs.
