The Market Sees the Shift

$TSLA ripping ahead of its Cybercab launch event

Happy Friday Jr. friends,

Monday, the stock ripped +5.51%. Today it’s carried another +7%.

Since its low close on July 29, $TSLA is up nearly 30%.

It’s impossible to fully understand the ripple effects autonomous driving and robotaxis will unlock. But the market sees the shift.

Imagine, just for a second, if the stress of your morning commute were erased. Poof - like magic.

A single drop landing on still water, sending out rings.

Back to reality… 

Looking at Tesla - the stock - we see tremendous pent-up energy. 

It’s traded sideways since early 2021.

We can think of this price action as similar to a spring - coiling, compressing, before an explosive expansion.

This may be the most entertaining stock to watch into year-end. 

Slowly, then all at once. 

Godspeed.
