A lot has been talked about recently with Rivian and their potential IPO. So I wanted to see how serious people would be in investing in Rivian.

If Rivian reached out to you and offered you a chance to invest in their IPO, how much of your money would you be willing to invest?

That's almost an unanswerable question. And random answers are pretty much meaningless. It depends on an individual's financial situation, which will change over time. For a multi-millionaire, $100,000 is no big deal. For a working class individual, $10,000 might be a major investment. My personal rule is, I never put any more money in any single stock than I am willing to lose. That rule is based on my experience, being invested in the stock market for over 40 years, and the amount that I'm willing to lose on an individual stock can and does change over time.

Very true.
Its better to ask how much are you risking as its all inclusive and gets right down to what's most important. Also a great segway into analysis.
On that note, 2% of my funds allocated for stocks will be going in.

It's odd, to me, that they're going to IPO yet haven't started deliveries, yet.

It's been interesting following Lucid over the last little while. The car looks great (in my opinion) and from and organizational standpoint Peter Rawlinson seems to be doing all the right things. Their similar to Rivian in that they're coy with a lot of details heading into production.

Have you seen the Gravity SUV? It too is a great looking vehicle and should push LCID stock up quite a bit.

I think its a smart move.

Folks are hungry to sink money into stocks like it and a number of key news events related to sales will help bring in more.

Quite true.
It is preferable to inquire about your risk tolerance because it is comprehensive and goes to to the heart of the matter. A excellent entryway into analysis, as well.
On that basis, I will invest 2% of the money I set aside for equities.
