Read previewTesla spent around $2 million on lidar, a technology used in EVs that Elon Musk has previously referred to as a "fool's errand" and that any carmakers relying on it are "doomed." But according to a recent earnings report from lidar manufacturer Luminar, Tesla was its largest customer last quarter and "comprised more than 10%" of its revenue during the period. The CEO said Tesla EVs only rely on camera-based vision systems for driver-assist features. The Tesla CEO said he personally ran a project at SpaceX to create lidar sensors to help navigation. Last year, Tesla recalled over 2 million vehicles after regulators said its Autopilot system didn't protect enough against drivers misusing it.

Short interest in the stock grew a whopping 44.9% during the latter half of February.

Wall Street returned to its winning ways this week — and Nvidia 's blowout earnings report Wednesday night was a big reason why. Twenty-six of our 32 portfolio stocks have delivered their results this earnings season (we didn't own Abbott Labs at the time of its report). It was a muted week for macroeconomic data, but we did get a slightly better-than-expected January existing home sales report on Thursday. In the week ahead, two more Club names are set to report earnings before a market-moving economic update arrives Thursday morning. The two other reports of note are the January new home sales report on Monday and ISM Manufacturing report on Friday.

Even as the market rallies, the latest short interest data reveals several stocks that could see losses. CNBC Pro screened FactSet data for stocks trading on the New York Stock Exchange and Nasdaq Exchange with the most short interest as of Jan. 12. Lucid Group , another EV maker, saw short interest increase to about 29% of its float. Companies that make auto parts, including Luminar Technologies and Atmus Filtration , also saw short interest increase. Short interest increased 3% and 8% for thrift store chain Savers Value Village and department store Kohl's , respectively.

While short bets are mounting in these stocks in recent weeks, some of the upward momentum could be due to a short squeeze playing out. Electric vehicle maker Fisker also saw short interest rise more than 10% to more than 49% of its float. That included artificial intelligence stock C3.ai, with short interest down a little over 3% to about 35% of shares outstanding. Short interest climbed 8% to 32.6 million shares shorted. Short interest increased 6% during the period to more than 27 million shares.

Jade Gao | AFP | Getty ImagesFor investors in lidar startups, this has been a long time coming. After years of talk — and a SPAC boom in the sensor sector — automakers have finally started incorporating lidar units into their vehicles. Lidar, short for light detection and ranging, is a sensor technology that uses invisible lasers to create a detailed 3D map of the sensor's surroundings. Playing into investors' intense interest in self-driving technology, many lidar startups went public via mergers with special purpose acquisition companies, or SPACs, over the last few years.

☆ 28-year-old self-made billionaire started his self-driving car company in his parents' garage—now he's worth $1.6 billion
▼ + stars: | 2023-07-24 | by ( Ashton Jackson | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +4 min

When Austin Russell was a 17-year-old high school student, he founded Luminar Technologies, which makes laser sensors that can help self-driving cars detect nearby objects. Now 28, Russell is the world's youngest self-made billionaire, according to Forbes, as Luminar competes with major companies like Tesla and Alphabet's Waymo. But self-driving cars aren't exactly commonplace on American roads, meaning Russell and Luminar have a lot of work ahead of them, despite their lofty valuations. How it differs from Tesla's approachElon Musk's Tesla also seeks to popularize self-driving cars, and Musk's approach to the technology is entirely different. Lidar could potentially change that, Russell says: Cameras can be helpful "for certain use cases," but lidar is "a huge step forward."

That's according to Austin Russell, the world's youngest self-made billionaire, who dropped out of Stanford University in 2012 to start his company, Luminar Technologies, after receiving a $100,000 grant from the Peter Thiel Fellowship. CNBC Make It asked Russell, 28, if he'd recommend other student entrepreneurs to drop out. "It's just sort of the traditional approach around what you do and what you're supposed to do." What's more, he says he would have still left Stanford even if he hadn't received funding. "If you're wondering if I would have dropped out [without the grant], yeah.

It may be hard to believe that Austin Russell, the world's youngest self-made billionaire, has anything in common with others his age — but he insists that he does. The company, which Russell founded 11 years ago as a teenager, develops hardware and software meant to power self-driving cars. But rather than focusing on technological expertise or business acumen, Russell credits his journey so far to two traits common among younger generations: energy and passion. "People in their 20s have a lot of great energy," Russell tells CNBC Make It. Building such a company takes more than just passion and energy, Russell admits.

A Mercedes-Benz van retrofitted with different types of lidar systems, including Luminar's Iris, to showcase the differences in the technologies. Lidar maker Luminar Technologies , stung by a recent Wall Street downgrade, is responding in an unusual way: taking its case directly to the shareholders. "We continue to see Luminar as one of a handful of leaders in the very competitive lidar industry," Delaney wrote. "'Premium pricing' isn't a theoretical concept we are forecasting, but an achievement we have already made in our major customer contracts," Fennimore wrote in the shareholder letter. And the second point Fennimore says Goldman missed: The time frame Delaney chose to compare Luminar's valuation against those of its rivals.

Luminar Technologies shares are too expensive at current valuations and could fall 35%, Goldman Sachs said. Luminar shares outperformed this year as investors moved back into riskier assets. However, the analyst says Luminar shares now have downside after that run-up. Delaney's $5 price target means shares could fall 35% from Tuesday's close.
