What happened to a month ago when EV market was apparently dead for good?

What news reports did you read that lead you to believe that the EV market is dying?

From my understanding its mostly legacy automakers that are unable to sell EVs effectively. However EV sales overall are up from EV manufacturers like Tesla & BYD etc.

I meant it a bit tongue in cheek. A month ago I swear I saw a half dozen articles in a week saying “THE EV INDUSTRY IS DOOMED SALES ARE DOWN.” I didn’t fully trust it.
