Archer Aviation Stock Is Down 50%. Is Now Finally the Time to Buy?

Key PointsArcher Aviation stock has lost half its value in 2026.

Archer Aviation's stock price has plummeted over 50% in 2026, falling from around $8 per share to under $4. This electric vehicle company is attempting to develop a novel market for electric vertical takeoff and landing aircraft, also known as eVTOL. However, the future of Archer's business remains uncertain as it struggles to prove that its electric air taxis can generate profits and establish a large customer base.

The company has yet to determine how many passengers will be willing to pay for these taxi rides and what their expenses will be, including maintenance and operations. Despite these challenges, if an investor is willing to hold onto the stock for an extended period and can tolerate volatility, Archer Aviation may present a compelling investment opportunity.

Nonetheless, those who are uncomfortable with potential losses may want to steer clear of this stock at its current valuation.
