Alternative ways to invest in Proterra
Buying shares in just one company is generally considered a riskier bet than investing in a range of investments - AKA a "diversified portfolio". Experts generally recommend holding a mix of investments in specific assets and funds. Funds are ready-made portfolios of multiple companies' shares (potentially including Proterra), and the idea is that drops in the value of one constituent company's share price might be offset by rises in others.
Proterra is a major part of the PINK, so it's included in many global funds and investment trusts, as well as tracker-style exchange traded funds (ETFs).
Is it a good time to buy Proterra stock?
Only you can make the decision on the time to leap... but here's some supporting information and analysis.
Share price volatility
