Stock Trading Department—This week’s recommended stocks TSLA

Tesla Inc (TSLA)

1. Investment Type

Type: High volatility US growth stock

Main business: Electric vehicles (EV), energy storage (Powerwall/Powerpack), self-driving and robotics (Optimus, Robotaxi)

Investment logic: A luxury EV brand with growth and cutting-edge tech (like self-driving and robots)

2. Fundamentals & External Pressure

Big drop in global sales: Europe sales fell for 5 straight months, down over 45% year-over-year; sales in China also kept dropping. Q1 revenue fell about 20% compared to the last quarter.

CEO issues: Elon Musk got involved in political problems, linked to Trump and far-right support, causing global protests and boycotts. Some even held “Tesla TakeDown” events.

New Tariff Pressure: On April 2 (Liberation Day), wide tariff policies were announced. Auto parts included. Tesla said costs would rise clearly.

3. Price Movement Breakdown

March to early April: Price dropped hard 

On March 21, the US said it would raise tariffs again. This made markets panic.

At the same time, sales were weak in Europe and China and Musk’s political issues made it worse. The stock dropped from around $270 to about $217, a 20% fall.

April: Short rebound and bottom test

On April 5, good news about tariffs came out. Federal investigation started and a short-term deal was discussed. This news helped TSLA bounce back to around $260.

4. Technicals & Market Mood

Support level: Around $217, medium term bottom, tested often in the short term

Resistance: ~$260–$270, this is the bounce zone where price keeps falling after hitting it

Volume: Big during the drop, active during the bounce, shows strength coming back

5. Style Advice

This is a typical high-beta growth stock with clear cycle risk, best for aggressive investors who can handle risk.

Key risks: Sales changes, political/trade policy shifts and tech regulations (self-driving/robotaxi)

Position suggestion: Buy small amounts when price is low. Watch for signs of bounce. If buying on a rise, make sure it breaks through key resistance.

6. Trading Strategy

✅ Summary

From late March to early April, Tesla showed a pattern of “big drop → short bounce → sideway bottom.” Now it’s steady but still under pressure from sales and politics. Could be a good time to prepare to invest, but wait for real signs (like strong sales or robotaxi launch) before going all in.
