7 stocks of electric vehicles (EVs) ready to rebound

The electric vehicle (EV) industry was almost as sparkling as “pandemic stocks” in 2020. It’s not that the electric vehicle industry was dormant under the Trump administration.

But, as they say, elections have consequences. And Wall Street understands they can make money in any jurisdiction. And as a bet that Joe Biden would win the presidency, stocks of electric vehicles have skyrocketed.

For starters, the Biden administration has already said it will prioritize climate change like no administration has ever done. And one way to do that is to encourage the production and purchase of electric vehicles.

And to take advantage of this shift towards electric vehicle inventory, many private companies have rushed to jump into the action. The preferred way for many of these companies to go public was through a Special Purpose Acquisition Company (SPAC). A SPAC is essentially a shortcut to the traditional IPO process.

However, what often increases decreases and since late February EV stocks have been beaten. But this creates an opportunity as the electric vehicle is still expected to experience exceptional growth over the next five years.

To help you take advantage of it, we’ve created this special presentation that includes seven actions that look like they’re ready to take the next step.

Check out the “7 Electric Vehicle (EV) Stocks Ready to Bounce Back”.
