3M Company (NYSE: MMM)

3M is down 3.12% premarket after the manufacturing giant missed earnings expectations. On an adjusted basis, 3M earned $2.28 a share, down from $2.45 a share the year before. The company also plans to cut 2,500 jobs, a move Chief Executive Mike Roman called “a necessary decision to align with adjusted production volumes.”

Lyft, Inc. (Nasdaq: LYFT)

Lyft Is up 3.18% premarket after analysts at KeyBanc bumped the stock to Overweight from Sector Weight. The rideshare company’s data improved over December. It also cut costs, which could provide an opportunity to improve its earnings over the course of this year.

Sector to watch: Electric Vehicles

Several electric vehicle stocks were up in premarket. These included Nio, Li Auto and Xpeng. This premarket boost came on continued optimism as China reopens and automakers cut prices. Tesla also reports earnings on Wednesday, and its recent price cuts could have a drastic impact on the market.

When it comes to Electric Vehicle stocks, there’s one company our friend Andy Snyder wants you to know about. The Wall Street Journal says this company “could be the next Tesla.” It’s faster than super cars like Ferrari’s F8 – yet it’s 100% electric. Better yet, it plans to ship out 1 million of these cars per year.
