Volvo owns 49.5%, I think it’s like buying Volvo and they have the advantage of actually being a traditional car manufacturer with all the manufacturing expertise with additional funding from selling more shares on the market. I think they would be a far better option than lucid or Rivian but again it’s like buying a regular car company because you are buying Volvo.

Looks like in all the cases you highlighted that the market was still going up while the Fed was increasing rates, which isn't the case here

Usually no nitrogen is applied on soybeans except what is in MAP or DAP fertilizer that whichever is a small amount. The only time I know you would put N on soybeans is if you were going for very high yield like to win a contest. Beans are a legume. Farmers certainly skipped dry map application when it is expensive.

That is incorrect, although your point is fair. You do need to make some adjustments for dealing with American options. The theoretical framework around BS is for European options, and doesn't directly consider early assignment. The model is also built on a normal distribution curve, and the stocks don't behave as a normal distribution curve. It is a model, it certainly isn't "perfect", but it is a really good model that help to understand the mechanics behind option valuations.

I’m not saying polstar is overvalued, bc I haven’t looked it over in a few. But comparing it to those companies will automatically make it seem undervalued, rivian, fisker, lucid are all doing next to nothing and valued like they are doing everything. Just something to keep in minf
