Rivian (NASDAQ:RIVN) stock is taking off on Tuesday and we’re diving into all the latest news traders need to know about the company.
Let’s get right into that below!
- First off, Rivian is an electric vehicle (EV) company that only recently went public.
- The company held an initial public offering (IPO) last Wednesday that included 153 million shares at a price of $78 each.
- That was an upsized offering compared to its original plans and it came to a close yesterday.
- The company’s market capitalization is currently sitting at $140.606 billion.
- There’s also recent talk that Rivian plans to open a new plant in Georgia.
- Reports claim that discussions are underway for a vehicle and battery plant east of Atlanta.
- The reports state that these talks are in the late stages but nothing official has been announced yet.
- It’s also worth noting that Rivian has several major names backing it.
- Investors in the company include Amazon (NASDAQ:AMZN) with a 22.4% stake, T.Rowe Price (NASDAQ:TROW) with an 18.8%, as well as Ford (NYSE:F) with a 14.4% stake.
- Another reason to keep an eye on RIVN stock today has to do with the infrastructure bill President Joe Biden passed into law.
- This bill includes benefits for EV companies, as well as plans to set up a national EV charging network.
- Now that it’s passed to law, it’s not too surprising that we’re seeing RIVN stock head higher today.
- That also comes with some decent trading early this morning.
- As of this writing, some 30 million shares of RIVN stock have changed hands.
- That’s still below the company’s daily average trading volume of about 75.5 million shares, but the day is young.
