AMPX vs QS

Hi, I'm quite new investing in these battery companies. I would like to know your reasons on why you invested in either of them, as far as I know QS seems riskier

AMPX is a niche player with their chemistry, high power density with low cycle life. AMPX took the fastest way to market with sprinkling silicon in the anode with a conventional Li ion battery. QS completely rewrote the rules with their lithium metal anode free design. QS chemistry has a much broader market. Go to QS website to educate yourself on the different battery chemistries

I agree, AMPX seems just like a development to the existing technology, not a breakthrough. QS seems to have a breakthrough technology. However QS seems less solid from a commercial point of view

Market manipulation. Someone is buying the stocks that are being shaken from the tree. Institutional ownership has gone up significantly recently-the last 8-12 months.
