Ford Motor Co. has sold off about 8% of its stockholdings in Rivian Automotive Inc., according to people familiar with the matter, pushing shares of the electric-vehicle startup to an all-time low.
Rivian stock has come under pressure, following news of the Ford stock sale, previously reported by CNBC on Saturday. Rivian’s stock closed down 21% to $22.78 Monday, continuing a slide that began earlier this year as the company has had to curtail factory production due to supply-chain challenges.
