1. QuantumScape Corporation (NYSE:QS)

QuantumScape surged by 51.68 percent in just a week’s trading, extending its rally to a ninth consecutive day on Friday to close at $14.64, as investors appeared overly optimistic about its new production milestone, taking the chance to position ahead of its second quarter earnings performance.

Continued investor confidence appeared to be driven by the company’s announcement last month that it had achieved a new milestone that would scale up its production capabilities.

Called the Cobra separator, the new process is designed to enable faster, more energy-efficient production with a smaller equipment footprint compared to earlier processes.

As compared with the prior generation Raptor process, QuantumScape Corporation (NYSE:QS) said Cobra offers a ~25x improvement in heat treatment speed and occupies a fraction of the physical space per film start—both of which are key advantages in the design of a scalable gigafactory production line.

Investors will be closely watching out for QuantumScape Corporation’s (NYSE:QS) updated outlook for the rest of the year, with a new production process now in full swing. The company is set to release its second quarter earnings results and hold an investor call on Wednesday, July 23, after the market close.
