Potentially related to the GM investment?

Either GM made a $2bn mistake or they knew exactly what they were doing and everything is going according to plan...

GM didn't pay $2B. They took a $2B stake in Nikola and agreed to be remunerated to manufacture their truck by using their electric battery tech which they were working on regardless of this deal.

Who said GM paid anything? I was simply indicating the scale of their involvement.
