Electric-car battery developer QuantumScape Corp.’s shares sank the most ever on Monday after nearly quintupling in a month.

Monday’s drop made the battery maker a stark outlier in the sector as most EV stocks continued a weekslong rally, and marked a pause in a string of gains that saw QuantumScape’s stock price surge 388% between its Nov. 27 mergerBloomberg Terminal with a blank-check company and Christmas Eve.
