Zacks, a leading investment firm’s estimate says that the profits will suffer a loss of $0.35 per share, while revenue could be around $201.94 Million.

Can Lucid Stock Price Action Break the Range?
LDIC stock price has been consolidating in a narrow range in the daily chart frame since March 2023. However, in late June 2023, there was positive momentum, but the following drop eroded the rally. 50EMA coinciding with current action hints at further consolidation: a descending 200EMA and RSI with a negative cross-over at 47.81 hints toward a decline.
If Lucid stock can make its financials profitable, the price could rally across R1 at $9.26 and even R2 at $11.29. Until then, even if positive earnings propel the stock price across immediate resistance at $8.22, the possibility of sustaining is slim. The price should bounce off strong support at $5.48, but if it does not, $5.00 would act as the final line of defense.
