Ideanomics Inc., whose shares were trading for less than $1 a share to start the month, climbed as much as 79% Monday, pushing its June rally briefly past 900% intraday. The latest move comes after the company announced an order for 200 electric vehicles by the Chinese city of Neijiang and a rebranding of its truck and specialty vehicle sales unit as Medici Motor Works, or MMW.
The stock’s climb has roughly mirrored a jump in Robinhood users holding shares from less than 10,000 two weeks ago to more than 80,000, according to Robintrack.net, which tracks data from the retail investing platform. Ideanomics also topped a daily list of changes in popularity at Robintrack.
