What's Going On With NIO Stock On Friday?

Shares of Chinese EV maker NIO Inc &#8211; ADR (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NIO#NYSE">NIO</a>) fell around 3% to $4.00 on Thursday, tracking broader weakness in U.S.-listed Chinese stocks after Alibaba Group reported mixed fiscal fourth-quarter results. Alibaba shares dropped 8.1% to $123.05 after <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/25/05/45437447/alibaba-stock-slides-5-after-revenue-miss-cloud-spend-hits-free-cash-flow">missing revenue expectations</a>, despite beating earnings estimates.
What To Know: Alibaba posted $32.58 billion in quarterly revenue, falling short of the $33.08 billion analyst consensus. Although adjusted earnings per ADS came in strong at $1.73 versus estimates of $1.48, the topline miss and deceleration in some key business segments weighed on investor sentiment.

In particular, declines in <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/25/05/45437447/alibaba-stock-slides-5-after-revenue-miss-cloud-spend-hits-free-cash-flow">logistics revenue</a> and planned pullbacks in direct sales raised concerns about broader macro and consumer demand trends in China.

Why It Matters: As a China-based growth stock, Nio is often viewed in tandem with other major Chinese firms like Alibaba. When a heavyweight like Alibaba underperforms or signals broader economic uncertainty, it tends to trigger sympathy selling across U.S.-listed Chinese equities, especially those tied to consumer demand and domestic growth.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">How To Buy NIO Stock</h2>
By now you're likely curious about how to participate in the market for NIO &#8211; be it to purchase shares, or even attempt to bet against the company.
Buying shares is typically done through a brokerage account. You can find a list of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/best-stock-trading-platforms">possible trading platforms here.</a> Many will allow you to buy &#8220;fractional shares,&#8221; which allows you to own portions of stock without buying an entire share.
In the case of NIO, which is trading at $4.0 as of publishing time, $100 would buy you 25.0 shares of stock.
If you're looking to bet against a company, the process is more complex. You'll need access to an options trading platform, or a broker who will allow you to &#8220;go short&#8221; a share of stock by lending you the shares to sell. The process of shorting a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-short-a-stock">stock can be found at this resource.</a> Otherwise, if your broker allows you to trade options, you can either buy a put option, or sell a call option at a strike price above where shares are currently trading &#8211; either way it allows you to profit off of the share price decline.
According to data from&nbsp;<a href="https://benzinga.grsm.io/register174">Benzinga Pro</a>, NIO has a 52-week high of $7.71 and a 52-week low of $3.02.

Alongside the ET9 milestone, NIO is refreshing several key models in its lineup.
Beginning May 10, customers in China can place pre-orders for updated versions of the ES6 SUV, EC6 coupe SUV, and the ET5 and ET5 Touring sedans. Showrooms will simultaneously unveil <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/movers/25/05/45322004/whats-going-on-with-nio-stock-today-23" rel="noreferrer noopener">the revamped ES6 and EC6 models.</a>

The surge in shipments indicates strong demand, even as the company invests in innovative features like SBW and explores international market opportunities.
Price Action: NIO shares are trading lower by 2.02% to $4.115 at last check on Tuesday.

What's Going On With NIO Stock Today?

Rivian Automotive Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RIVN#NASDAQ">RIVN</a>) remains committed to its $45,000 starting price for the upcoming R2 electric vehicle despite mounting concerns over global trade tensions and tariffs, CEO RJ Scaringe confirmed during the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/25/05/45236756/rivian-q1-earnings-double-beat-record-gross-profit-delivery-estimates-lowered-on-tariff-concerns">company&#8217;s first-quarter of 2025 earnings call</a>.
What Happened: &#8220;We&#8217;re not planning changes in our $45,000 starting price. This is important for us,&#8221; Scaringe said, addressing investor concerns about the impact of recent tariffs on EV components. The company expects per-unit tariff impacts of approximately $2,000 for 2025.
Rivian reported <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/25/05/45236756/rivian-q1-earnings-double-beat-record-gross-profit-delivery-estimates-lowered-on-tariff-concerns">better-than-expected first-quarter results</a> with an Earnings Per Share of -$0.41. Revenue reached $1.24 billion, exceeding the street consensus estimate of $1 billion. The company achieved positive gross profit for the second consecutive quarter at $26 million.

Why It Matters: Despite the strong financial performance, Rivian revised its 2025 delivery guidance downward to 40,000-46,000 vehicles, citing increased price sensitivity in the EV market and a challenging consumer backdrop.
The R2, scheduled for production in the first half of 2026, represents Rivian&#8217;s strategic move into a more affordable market segment. The company has begun validation builds of the R2 prototype and confirmed that its Normal, Illinois, facility expansion remains on schedule, with a planned production shutdown for approximately one month in the second half of 2025 for R2 integration.
CFO Claire McDonough emphasized that R2 will be &#8220;truly transformative for our growth and profitability,&#8221; noting that the company expects &#8220;a faster path to profitability as compared to R1.&#8221;
Price Action: Rivian stock closed at $13.50 on Tuesday, down 0.37% for the day, and fell another 1.56% in after-hours trading to $13.29. Year to date, the stock is up 1.89%.
According to Benzinga Stock Edge Rankings, Rivian shows stronger growth metrics than rivals Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) and Nio Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NIO#NYSE">NIO</a>), though it trails Lucid Group Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LCID#NASDAQ">LCID</a>). RIVN also exhibits a positive price trend from the short to long term. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/premium/ideas/benzinga-edge-2#:~:text=Turn%20Market%20Chaos,when%20markets%20rebound">Sign up to learn more</a>.

'US lawmakers urge SEC to delist Alibaba and Chinese companies'- Financial Times

Earlier this week, the Wall Street Journal reported that the Tesla, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) board of directors had reached out to executive search firms about a month ago to find a new CEO to<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/05/45165487/elon-musks-brother-backs-tesla-ceo-amid-report-of-board-exploring-ceo-replacement-its-getting-boring"> replace Elon Musk. </a>
Tesla <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/25/04/45124373/tesla-board-explored-replacing-elon-musk-as-tesla-ceo-a-month-ago-report">denied the report</a> and said that the assertion that the board reached out to recruitment firms is &#8220;false.&#8221;
&#8220;The CEO of Tesla is Elon Musk and the Board is highly confident in his ability to continue executing on the exciting growth plan ahead,&#8221; stated Tesla chairwoman Robyn Denholm.

Musk also denied the report in<a href="https://x.com/elonmusk/status/1917815854647107990"> a post</a> on his social media platform X.&nbsp;
&#8220;It is an extremely bad breach of ethics that the @WSJ would publish a deliberately false article and fail to include an unequivocal denial beforehand by the Tesla board of directors!&#8221; Musk wrote.&nbsp;
What If?: It remains to be seen if there is any truth to the Wall Street Journal's report, but other EV makers could stand to benefit if Musk is ousted from Tesla.&nbsp;
Chinese EV makers like XPeng, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/XPEV#NYSE">XPEV</a>) and NIO, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NIO#NYSE">NIO</a>) have been expanding aggressively. If Tesla were to see its leadership in turmoil, the companies could potentially accelerate their gains, especially in Europe and Asia where Tesla's sales have dropped sharply.&nbsp;
Smaller American EV manufacturers like Rivian Automotive, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RIVN#NASDAQ">RIVN</a>) and Lucid Group, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LCID#NASDAQ">LCID</a>) could attract both investors and customers seeking alternatives to Tesla, especially if they can position themselves as more stable or innovative than Tesla under new leadership.
Even traditional automakers like Ford Motor Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/F#NYSE">F</a>) and General Motors Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GM#NYSE">GM</a>), which have invested heavily in electric vehicles, could benefit if Musk departs from Tesla. 
Though Musk and Tesla have both denied the WSJ report, the broader EV market could become more competitive and diversified if Tesla loses its market dominance without Musk at the helm.&nbsp;

China&#8217;s Commerce Ministry <a target="_blank" href="https://www.nytimes.com/2025/05/02/world/asia/china-us-tariffs-talks.html" rel="noreferrer noopener">said in a statement to</a> the New York Times that it was considering the U.S. offer to talk, provided Washington cancels its tariffs on Chinese goods.
President Trump intensified geopolitical tensions with China by raising tariffs on Chinese goods to a minimum of 145% while omitting China from a 90-day pause on its tariffs, unlike its other trading partner countries.
China retaliated with its tariffs on U.S. goods, blocking some American companies from doing business in China and restricting exports of critical minerals catering to semiconductors, drones, and cars.
China&#8217;s manufacturing activity for April showed that the factories posted their sharpest monthly slowdown in more than a year.
Last week, President Trump <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/regulations/25/04/44968199/us-listed-china-stocks-surge-as-trump-hints-at-tariff-cuts-and-softening-trade-tensions" rel="noreferrer noopener">hinted at a substantial</a> reduction in tariff rates as he proposed treating China fairly as its trading partner.
During an investor summit, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent&nbsp;acknowledged the impracticability and mutual challenges of a tariff war with China.

NIO Reports 53% YoY Increase In April Vehicle Deliveries To 23,900 Vehicles

Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) is drawing renewed investor interest despite recent setbacks, as Tom Lee, Head of Research at Fundstrat Global Advisors, identifies potential recovery signals amid extremely negative sentiment.
What Happened: Lee described Tesla as a &#8220;washed out&#8221; stock in a post on X on Tuesday, where he shared an analysis by Roy Mattox, Chief Market Strategist at Integrated Financial Strategies. 
Mattox revealed that his team initiated a pilot position in Tesla after the stock broke above its 200-day moving average and surpassed the $291.85 pivot point, following a sharp decline. 
Mattox acknowledged the move as an &#8220;unorthodox&#8221; and creative entry, driven not by recent earnings, which he characterized as a &#8220;horrible quarter.&#8221; Specifically, the investment is based on optimism around Tesla&#8217;s upcoming autonomous and robotaxi initiatives, as well as the anticipated rollout of the Optimus robot.

Tom Lee Sees Recovery Signal In 'Washed Out' Tesla As Stock Breaks Key Level, Backed By Robotaxi And Optimus Hopes

The Future Fund Managing Partner, Gary Black, cautioned investors on Tuesday against Tesla Inc.&#8217;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) robotaxi valuations that project share prices of $2,000 or higher, arguing that such forecasts ignore market realities and competition.
What Happened: Black criticized supply-based approaches that assume Tesla will capture nearly all ride-hailing business from Uber Technologies Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UBER#NYSE">UBER</a>) and Lyft Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LYFT#NASDAQ">LYFT</a>), noting that even if Tesla captured the entire profits of Uber and Lyft combined, the impact on its earnings would be minimal—adding $1.50 per share to Tesla's Earnings Per Share.
&#8220;Tesla doesn&#8217;t have a first-mover advantage, has no ride-hailing marketing, and hasn&#8217;t been approved for a single autonomous deployment license in any state yet,&#8221; Black wrote on X, adding that both Uber and Lyft will likely offer fully autonomous rides concurrently with Tesla.
Black&#8217;s skepticism extends to Tesla&#8217;s <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/25/04/44979720/teslas-robotaxi-launch-in-june-will-likely-be-a-non-event-says-gary-black-this-isnt-really-a-test-market-its-an-experiment">upcoming Austin robotaxi launch</a>, which he recently described as an &#8220;experiment&#8221; rather than a true market test, with only 10-20 vehicles initially deployed.

Why It Matters: Black&#8217;s concerns contrast sharply with ARK Invest CEO Cathie Wood&#8216;s bullish $2,600 price target, which values <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/03/44345980/cathie-wood-stands-by-teslas-2600-price-target-despite-40-stock-drop-its-winner-take-most">Tesla at over $9 trillion by 2029</a>. Wood views robotaxis as an &#8220;$8 trillion to $10 trillion opportunity&#8221; that could transform Tesla from a manufacturer to a software company with margins approaching 90%.
Despite recent positive movement after Tesla&#8217;s quarterly earnings call, where CEO Elon Musk announced he would &#8220;significantly&#8221; reduce his time at the Department of Government Efficiency, Black maintains that regulatory realities will prevent Tesla from dominating the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/44945402/wedbushs-dan-ives-raises-teslas-price-target-to-350-as-musk-promises-to-significantly-reduce-doge-time">autonomous ride-hailing market.</a>
&#8220;Despite Tesla&#8217;s fleet, data, and compute advantages,&#8221; Black wrote, &#8220;regulators will ensure that others are approved soon after. And Tesla&#8217;s lack of marketing skills remains its Achilles heel.&#8221;
Benzinga Edge&#8217;s Stock Rankings indicate that while Tesla faces a short- to long-term negative price trend, it still outperforms Lucid Group Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LCID#NASDAQ">LCID</a>), Rivian Automotive Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RIVN#NASDAQ">RIVN</a>), and Nio Inc.

Tesla's 'Marketing Skills Remain Its Achilles Heel,' Says Gary Black As Robotaxi Valuations Ignore Market Limits—Full Uber, Lyft Profits Still Fall Short Of $2,000 Target

NIO's (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NIO#NYSE">NIO</a>) short percent of float has fallen 5.3% since its last report. The company recently reported that it has 220.08 million shares sold short, which is 13.4% of all regular shares that are available for trading. Based on its trading volume, it would take traders 3.8 days to cover their short positions on average.
<h3>Why Short Interest Matters</h3>
Short interest is the number of shares that have been sold short but have not yet been covered or closed out. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-short-a-stock?adType=benzinga-insights&amp;ad=short-interest&amp;campaign=wallstreetadvantage">Short selling</a> is when a trader sells shares of a company they do not own, with the hope that the price will fall. Traders make money from short selling if the price of the stock falls and they lose if it rises.
Short interest is important to track because it can act as an indicator of market sentiment towards a particular stock. An increase in short interest can signal that investors have become more bearish, while a decrease in short interest can signal they have become more bullish.

<h3>NIO Short Interest Graph (3 Months)</h3>
<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2025/1745949690_0.png" alt="short_fig" />
As you can see from the chart above the percentage of shares that are sold short for NIO has declined since its last report. This does not mean that the stock is going to rise in the near-term but traders should be aware that less shares are being shorted.
<h3>Comparing NIO's Short Interest Against Its Peers</h3>
Peer comparison is a popular technique amongst analysts and investors for gauging how well a company is performing. A company's peer is another company that has similar characteristics to it, such as industry, size, age, and financial structure. You can find a company's peer group by reading its 10-K, proxy filing, or by doing your own similarity analysis.
According to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pro/">Benzinga Pro</a>, NIO's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 8.69%, which means the company has more short interest than most of its peers.
Did you know that increasing short interest can actually be bullish for a stock? <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-make-money-on-a-short-squeeze?adType=benzinga-insights&amp;ad=short-interest&amp;campaign=wallstreetadvantage">This post by Benzinga Money explains how you can profit from it.</a>
