Portfolio Pulse from Shanthi Rexaline
Nio, Inc. (NASDAQ:NIO) stock surged in premarket trading despite weak U.S. index futures, attributed to the announcement of its new subsidiary brand ONVO and its first model L60, aimed at the low-end market. The L60 is set to compete with Tesla's Model Y. Additionally, Nio celebrated the production of its 500,000th mass-market vehicle. Positive momentum was also supported by China's better-than-expected April trade data. Nio's domestic counterparts, XPeng, Inc. (NYSE:XPEV) and Li Auto, Inc.
