Sumit Sharma, the CEO of MicroVision, was hired in February 2020. Prior to that, he worked for Alphabet’s (NASDAQ: GOOGL, GOOG) Google and held several positions at the firm.

Stocks and Revenues

The market capitalisation of the firm is $2.59 billion.

In the last year, MicroVision, Inc. (NASDAQ: MVIS) stock has returned 882 percent to investors. It comes in ninth place on our list of the top 10 WallStreetBets meme stocks that hedge funds are betting on. The firm manufactures and distributes lidar sensors, which are utilised by automobile manufacturers. It just became a member of the Russell 2000 Index. Because of this, the stock is one of the most popular on Reddit boards, and it was one of the top gainers in the technology market in early June. The firm’s stock price surged 25% in seven days leading up to June 11 before taking a pause.

Recent Developments

MicroVision, Inc. (NASDAQ: MVIS) stated on June 21 that it has agreed to a $140 million at-the-market equity facility with Craig-Hallum Capital Group. The funds raised would be utilised for general business objectives.

It has also agreed to collaborate with Microsoft (MSFT) on the Hololens project. While this is a significant accomplishment, it is not the same as a contract for autonomous cars. The potential use of lidar in self-driving vehicles is a significant driver of MVIS stock.

Wallstreet favorite

Despite the fact that the Reddit forums are full of mentions about Tesla, Inc. (NASDAQ: TSLA), Palantir Technologies Inc. (NYSE: PLTR), Apple Inc. (NASDAQ: AAPL), and Shopify Inc. (NYSE: SHOP), there is still a lot of investor interest in United Microelectronics Corporation (NYSE: UMC), one of Reddit’s WallStreetBets meme stocks.
