    Lucid Rebounds 17% After Strongly Denying Bankruptcy Rumors

    Direct answer

    Lucid's aggressive denial of bankruptcy rumors has sparked a relief rally.

With $4.7 billion in liquidity, Lucid appears to have enough runway to avoid immediate insolvency, though the underlying business challenges in the EV market remain.
