$GraniteShares 1.25X Long TSLA Daily ETF(TSL)$ aWhoa, Tesla's stock just took a nosedive, dipping below that $400 mark after a brutal 6.6% slide in a single session, marking its sharpest tumble in months and dragging it down over 10% from recent highs tied to Elon Musk's massive pay package approval. 🚀💥 But hold up—while the year-to-date ride shows a solid 6% gain overall, this recent 16% plunge from a 30-day peak of $474 feels like a gut punch for investors. Is this a golden entry point at around $402, or should you play it cool and wait for even steeper "Black Friday" style discounts on the horizon? Let's dive deep into the chaos, crunch the numbers, and unpack if ARK Invest's recent sell-off spells trouble or just smart profit-taking. 🧐💰
First off, the drama unfolded amid a broader tech sell-off, with Tesla shares slipping 5.5% early before closing at $401.99, fueled by worries over slowing demand in China and valuation jitters. 😟 Retail investors, though? They're piling in like it's a fire sale, snapping up shares despite the dip—talk about die-hard fans! On the flip side, Cathie Wood's ARK Invest has been trimming its Tesla holdings for four straight sessions, offloading chunks like 70,474 shares worth $30 million across ARK Innovation and Next Gen Internet ETFs, plus smaller dumps including that 5,426-share sale totaling $2.4 million. Is ARK losing faith in Musk's grand vision of robotaxis, full self-driving breakthroughs, and energy dominance? Or is this just tactical rebalancing after Tesla's wild run-up earlier this year? 🤔 History suggests Wood's crew often sells high to fund bets on emerging disruptors, so this might not signal doom—Tesla still reigns as ARK's top holding in their $16.8 billion portfolio. 🔥
To visualize the volatility, here's a quick chart snippet to plot Tesla's daily closes for 2025:
Now, let's break down the key metrics in a table for clarity—no fluff, just facts on this rollercoaster:
See that nasty drop on Nov 13? Volume spiked as panic set in, but YTD, Tesla's up 5.99% from its January levels—proof it's not all red, just a bumpy patch. 📊 If you're eyeing a buy at $400-ish, consider the bull case: Musk's empire is pushing boundaries with Cybertruck ramps, Optimus robots gearing up for real-world tasks, and solar/storage growth exploding amid global energy shifts. Analysts are mixed, with some Wall Street targets hinting at $423+ in the next 12 months, banking on EV adoption surges. 🏎️💨 But bears growl about overvaluation, China sales slumps, and competition from legacy automakers going electric.
As for that "Black Friday discount"—if you're thinking stock prices, this dip already feels like one, but whispers of further slides could hit if Q4 earnings disappoint or regulatory hurdles slow autonomous dreams. On the car side, Tesla isn't big on traditional Black Friday blowouts for vehicles (no major incentives spotted this year), but accessory brands are slashing up to 30% on wheel covers, mats, and kits—perfect if you're decking out your ride while waiting on shares. 🎁🛒 Bottom line: If you believe in Musk's long-game wizardry, $400 screams buy for the bold. But if volatility keeps you up at night, sit tight—deeper deals might emerge before year-end. What's your move, investors? Dive in or dodge the dip? 🔥📈
