Check This Out-- THEORY #1: ELMS will receive a future contract due to its relation to the new Secretary of Transportation, Pete Buttigieg. Before his run for president last year, good ole Petey boy was the mayor of South Bend, Indiana. He has been known to have very mixed results there in terms of popularity, but he did put an emphasis on creating more jobs and projects to rebuild the area. Guess where the new ELMS factory is located? Yup, literally right next to South Bend in the bordering town of Mishikawa. Could it be possible that ELMS will have first priority now for any new government contracts relating to EV delivery or services, or maybe additional funding/credits? Quite possibly. We all know of Biden's plan to electrify the US, and now Mayor Pete has a perfect opportunity to give back to his hometown and bring more jobs and prosperity to South Bend and the surrounding areas. EDIT - - Pete Buttegieg actually held a campaign rally at the ELMS(Hummer) factory when he was a presidential candidate last year. This means ELMS are 100% on his radar. BTW- TYME- Nice pull in to $1.52 area I missed & here we go! Tyme Technologies, Inc. (TYME) 1.9670+0.8870 (+82.1296%) As of 12:11PM EDT. Market open.
