Things are still going badly for Polestar on the stock market. But the share has jumped up by as much as 28 percent in a few hours.
On Friday last week, Polestar shares hit a record low. Just US$0.68 was worth the car brand's stock.
However, that picture has already turned on Monday this week. An increase of 28 percent sounds impressive. But it is not enough to be able to save Polestar from a delisting on the stock exchange, which the car brand is still threatened by.
The share must cost over a dollar apiece. And Polestar is still not here. But the 28 percent rise after the market closed on Monday means the stock is now worth $0.80.
This is evident from the stock overview Yahoo! Finance .
The increase comes on top of several new announcements from the car brand. Among other things, Polestar will move away from selling cars on its own in several countries. Instead, they will leave that task to actual dealers.
