Archer Aviation (NYSE: ACHR) added some much-needed cash in August, but at the expense of existing shareholders. The news had a negative impact on the stock.

Archer is one of several companies working to commercialize electric vertical takeoff and landing (eVTOL) aircraft. The company's Midnight aircraft could one day ferry passengers over crowded rush-hour streets or bring passengers from the outer suburbs to airports, but for now the design is a work in progress.
