Despite a rough year for Chinese electric vehicle (EV) company Nio Inc. (NYSE: NIO), which has witnessed a steady decline of its stock price only interrupted by the year’s high at $14.86 in late July, experts are moderately optimistic in terms of the next 12 months, heightened by some positive developments.
