A 1% share of the global market is a bigger number than it sounds. But at the same time, China has roughly 18% of the world’s population. And a steadily growing portion of that population will be able to afford Nio’s vehicles, particularly if the company starts making cheaper EVs.</p>\n<p>And while a $180 billion market capitalization sounds enormous, EV companies are getting big valuations. Most notably,<b>Tesla</b>(NASDAQ:<b><u>TSLA</u></b>) is still valued at over $600 billion.

The stock’s chart, which shows that the shares have been getting support around their current levels recently, suggests I’m not alone.</p>\n<p>Yet I can’t quite get bullish on Nio. China has a huge EV market, but it’s also massively competitive already, with Tesla,<b>XPeng</b>(NYSE:<b><u>XPEV</u></b>),<b>Li Auto</b>(NASDAQ:<b><u>LI</u></b>) and state-owned manufacturers looking to take their own pieces of the pie.</p>\n<p>And while the EV market will grow over time, China is further along than most of the world, as. 10% of its automobiles are already EVs, according to Nio.</p>\n<p>In that context, the pullback of Nio stock looks like a needed correction rather than an opportunity.

But the bottom line is that attacks targeting operational technology -- the industrial control systems on the production line or plant floor -- are becoming more frequent,\" Algirde Pipikaite, cyber strategy lead at the World Economic Forum's Centre for Cybersecurity, told AFP on Saturday.\"Unless cybersecurity measures are embedded in a technology's development phase, we are likely to see more frequent attacks on industrial systems like oil and gas pipelines or water treatment plants.\"Gas prices jumped in the United States on Sunday following the ransomware attack. Analysts warn that prices could climb even higher if the pipeline is not reopened soon. Oil prices rose more than one percent Monday.The United States was rocked in recent months by news of two major cybersecurity breaches -- the SolarWinds hack that compromised thousands of US government and private sector computer networks and was officially blamed on Russia; and a potentially devastating penetration of Microsoft email servers.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":1255,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0}],"defaultTab":"posts","isTTM":false}
