Evaluating the Trends in Chinese EV Stocks
European Union tariffs slowed the influx of Chinese-made electric vehicles (EVs) in July, as the bloc moved to protect its automakers from low-cost competition. The number of new EVs that Chinese automakers such as BYD and Saic Motor's MG registered in the EU last month fell 45 per cent from June.
NIO
Nio delivered 20,498 vehicles in July, its third consecutive month above the 20,000 mark. That's up 0.18 percent from 20,462 vehicles a year ago, though down 3.35 percent from 21,209 in June.
Over 50% drop in NIO's share price since 2024. An obvious downtrend for this EV stock since 2021 from its peak at around 65 USD. As shown in the chart above (orange coloured downtrend line), even for mid term, Nio seems will continue to retrace towards 3.63 USD. And as predicted, Nio retraced to this support level and formed a double bottom now. I believe here is the bottom for Nio and a rebound is highly possible in the near term. Bullish vote for Nio $NIO Inc.(NIO)$
XPENG
The M03, the first model in Xpeng's Mona lineup, will be the cheapest model from the Chinese electric vehicle (EV) maker. The Xpeng Mona M03 will have a starting price of no more than RMB 135,900, and its official launch will take place on August 27.
For Xpeng, its movement was slightly stronger than NIO, at least it was still on a uptrend since early May 2024. However, thing might totally change for Xpeng soon, its share price seemed to fall below its uptrend line support. This is a critical level to monitor, if the share price is unable to stand back the uptrend line, we would see further drop in Xpeng share price next week. Its earnings result will be critical next week. Anyway, I am more towards a bearish vote for Xpeng $XPeng Inc.(XPEV)$
LI
Li Auto will report unaudited financial results for the second quarter of 2024 before the US markets open on Wednesday, August 28, the company announced today. Already released figures show that Li Auto delivered 108,581 vehicles in the second quarter, which is within the guidance range of between 105,000 and 110,000 vehicles.
Technical wise, as compared to Nio and Xpeng, Li experienced a much more stable share price movement since the end of May 2024. Recently, a higher low pattern was formed in Li technical chart, as drawn in blue above. This might be a trend reversal indication for LI auto, which is definitely a great news for its investors. A bullish vote for LI $Li Auto(LI)$
