Thanks Ed for breaking the story and keeping us informed

Rivian must FIRE the idiot who is responsible for this "ERROR". This is impactful to all investors as well. Incompetence at this level must not be tolerated. This error makes Rivian looks like it's being run by a bunch of armatures. Get rid of the idiot(s) now!

How many cars does Rivian make? Surely they must be able to find a different copper supplier for those.

They have a demand problem due to weakening consumers. This story is a non-factor in the big picture of Rivian.
