Faraday Future Intelligent Electric Inc. ( FFIE ) shares are trading lower Wednesday on continued downward momentum. Here's a look at what's going on.

What To Know:

Last week, Faraday Future’s stock saw massive price moves related to the retail-fueled meme stock rally which saw heavily-shorted stocks gaining alongside GameStop and AMC Entertainment shares. The stock was up more than 8000% at one point, before reversing Friday. 

Faraday Future shares fell more than 20% Tuesday and continue to move lower as the retail rally appears to have lost steam. The company faces financial challenges and received a delisting notice from Nasdaq on April 24 after its share prices remained below 10 cents for ten consecutive days.

The stock has outsized short-interest with 85.71% of available shares being sold short, according to the latest data from Benzinga Pro. High short-interest can contribute to price volatility, especially when combined with heavy trading volume. 

Faraday Future will host a conference call to discuss its fourth-quarter and full-year results after market close on Tuesday, May 28 at 8:00 p.m. ET.  According to estimates from Benzinga Pro, analysts expect the company to report quarterly losses of $3.51 per share and revenue of $2.039 million.
