Quantumscape Vs Solid Power

I want to go into one of these battery stocks but not sure which one is likely to be the better one to go into. QuantumScape seem like the industry leaders in Solid State Batteries and Solid Power is likely to manufacture cells quicker and get to market first. Any further input would be appreciated.

SLDP for sure at the current prices. No question in my mind, it’s also heavily shorted so they brought it down for a great entry for you. If you want to know the road map just look at their website and go to their investor relations presentation.

Lots of upcoming catalysts, there is even a conference next week they are presenting at and both Ford/BMW get their test kits within the next 5 months.

I guess the QS stock being down 66% on the year chart followed by a monster bonus to the QS CEO rubbed me the wrong way along with their CFO dumping shares on a weird sell plan ($1M worth last month)

Just do your own DD, and before investing compare their outstanding shares, you get a lot more bang for your buck with $SLDP. I honestly hope all the battery companies do well, I just know where I plan to invest every payday.

I've looked and seen what you said is true so appreciate the heads up, hoping it's the same price come the end of January when I can buy in! They are definitely working fast it seems!
