EV - Why Did Rivian Stock Drop Today?
Rivian stock ( NASDAQ:RIVN ) was up and down Thursday morning, gaining as high as 2.3% before falling 1.6%. Rivian shares were down 0.2% as of 12:22 p.m. ET. A reputable source’s appraisal of one of its R1T pickup vehicles may be what investors are focusing on today.
