#2,758 - Nikola's Bankruptcy EXPOSES the Cracks in the Electric Truck Industry

Arizona-based electric vehicle manufacturer Nikola, once heralded as a game-changer in the long-haul trucking industry, has filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy. The company's downfall stems from multiple issues, including the conviction of its founder, Trevor Milton, for fraud, vehicle safety concerns, and persistent financial losses. The broader electric vehicle (EV) market faces increasing difficulties, with reduced government subsidies and declining consumer interest. Arizona, which had bet big on EV manufacturing, has seen multiple companies shutter operations, exposing the fragility of an industry propped up by government incentives rather than sustainable market demand. With electric semi-trucks struggling to prove viability in long-distance hauling, Nikola's bankruptcy signals a potential reckoning for the EV sector, especially as the Biden administration's push for widespread EV adoption runs into economic and technological roadblocks. This collapse is yet another example of failed green energy experiments that rely too heavily on taxpayer-funded support rather than real-world viability.

Lo que comenzó como un sueño por cambiar el mundo de la automoción sostenible se ha convertido en pesadilla. La compañía de camiones eléctricos Nikola se declara en quiebra por la gran pérdida de efectivo que presentó en el último ejercicio. Intentó recaudar fondos para solventar los problemas de financiación pero tampoco tuvo éxito. ¿Qué razones alega la compañía para tomar esta decisión? Su CEO, Steve Girsky, declaró en un comunicado que “al igual que otras empresas en la industria de vehículos eléctricos, hemos enfrentado diversos factores de mercado y macroeconómicos que han impactado nuestra capacidad para operar”. Un Girsky que no hace tanto se mostraba muy optimista con el futuro de la compañía. Aunque lo cierto es que ya los antecedentes de la compañía hacían que las dudas sobrevolaran sobre su viabilidad. En 2022, su fundador Trevor Milton, fue condenado por fraude electrónico y fraude bursátil. Ya en 2020, la empresa de investigación estadounidense Hindenburg Research ya le había echado el ojo. La firma publicó en septiembre de ese año el informe Nikola: Cómo valerse de un océano de mentiras en la asociación con el mayor fabricante de coches de Estados Unidos. Entre estas mentiras, la firma alegaba que en un vídeo promocional de 2018 era un camión sin motor bajando una pendiente por gravedad o que Milton presentó el prototipo Nikola One funcional cuando no tenía un motor que funcionara para moverlo. Todo esto provocó que solo días después de la publicación, Milton dimitiera. La empresa sobrevivió y en 2023 nombró a Grisky como nuevo CEO, aunque no ha podido revertir la situación. La compañía se ha enfrentado eso sí unas condiciones financieras desfavorables, con dificultades para pedir préstamos por los intereses tan altos. Aunque algunos analistas, como Hernán Cortés, socio fundador y gestor de Olea Gestión, esta situación podría revertirse este año. Otra de las grandes curiosidades de la compañía es que mantuvo un pleito con Tesla. Las dos empresas que comparten el nombre del afamado inventor tuvieron un pleito. Milton acusó a la empresa de Elon Musk en 2018 de violar seis patentes con su modelo de camión eléctrico Tesla Semi. Nikola entonces reclamó a la compañía del multimillonario sudáfricano por supuestamente copiar el parabrisas envolvente, la forma de la cabina y el diseño y utilidad de la puerta lateral del Nikola One. El pleito se desestimó posteriormente.

Deposits into this account are used to purchase 10 investment-grade and high-yield bonds. The 6.9% yield is the average annualized yield to maturity (YTM) across all ten bonds in the Bond Account, before fees, as of 8/28/2024. A bond's yield is a function of its market price, which can fluctuate; therefore a bond's YTM is “locked in” when the bond is purchased. Your yield at time of purchase may be different from the yield shown here. The “locked in” YTM is not guaranteed; you may receive less than the YTM of the bonds in the Bond Account if you sell any of the bonds before maturity, or if the issuer calls or defaults on the bond. Public Investing charges a markup on each bond trade. See our Fee Schedule. Bond Accounts are not recommendations of individual bonds or default allocations. The bonds in the Bond Account have not been selected based on your needs or risk profile. You should evaluate each bond before investing in a Bond Account.
