Joby is gaining amid bullish momentum for the market today
The broader market is gaining today, and Joby is benefiting from the bullish momentum. While the gains for the S&P 500 and the Nasdaq Composite are largely being led by a resurgence for artificial intelligence (AI) chip stocks after sell-offs last week, the positive valuation sentiment is extending to stocks in other categories with growth-dependent and highly speculative valuations.
Joby stock is continuing to see gains connected to its Toyota partnership
On June 30, Joby and Toyota announced that they had entered into a partnership for the manufacturing of eVTOL craft. Joby will own 49% of the Joby Toyota Aero Manufacturing Preparation Company, and Toyota will own 51%.
Toyota has long been a funding partner for Joby, but the auto giant is now stepping in to play a leading role in the buildout of manufacturing operations for Joby's aircraft. Having Toyota on board looks like a significant win for Joby and could help the eVTOL specialist get to a place where its crafts can actually generate profits.
