Single-stock ETFs are rewriting the rules—offering leveraged exposure, built-in hedging, and targeted plays on some of the market's most iconic companies.
Generating cash is essential for any business, but not all cash-rich companies are great investments.
Some produce plenty of cash but fail to allocate it effectively, leading to missed opportunities.
Shares of luxury electric car manufacturer Lucid (NASDAQ:LCID) jumped 7.1% in the afternoon session after the company announced a 38% year-over-year increase in second-quarter deliveries, though the figures fell short of analyst expectations. Lucid announced it delivered 3,309 vehicles in the second quarter, a significant jump from the 2,394 vehicles delivered in the same period last year. However, this number missed the consensus estimate of 3,611 vehicles from Wall Street analysts. The company also reported producing 3,863 vehicles during the quarter. For the first half of 2025, Lucid produced 6,075 vehicles and delivered 6,418, indicating it has been selling down previously built inventory. Investors are reacting positively to the strong year-over-year growth, even with the delivery miss.
