Options-hedging activity has amplified market moves this year, contributing to heightened volatility.The CBOE Market Volatility index, often called \"the fear index,\" touched a two-month high, breezing past a level associated with heightened investor anxiety.Declining issues outnumbered advancing ones on the NYSE by a 3.04-to-1 ratio; on Nasdaq, a 2.24-to-1 ratio favored decliners.The S&P 500 posted no new 52-week highs and 56 new lows; the Nasdaq Composite recorded 21 new highs and 387 new lows.Volume on U.S. exchanges was 16.92 billion shares, compared with the 10.72 billion average for the full session over the last 20 trading days.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":292,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9935003490,"gmtCreate":1663001030410,"gmtModify":1676537179992,"author":{"id":"4093501445886610","authorId":"4093501445886610","name":"mrzh","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/c26fff9effd22bd1b2fc753bc22da7f9","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Okkk","listText":"Okkk","text":"Okkk","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9935003490","repostId":"2266804526","repostType":2,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":172,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9935009989,"gmtCreate":1663000453742,"gmtModify":1676537179945,"author":{"id":"4093501445886610","authorId":"4093501445886610","name":"mrzh","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/c26fff9effd22bd1b2fc753bc22da7f9","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Kept repeating quantitative, means something","listText":"Kept repeating quantitative, means something","text":"Kept repeating quantitative, means something","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9935009989","repostId":"2266390451","repostType":2,"repost":{"id":"2266390451","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Dow Jones publishes the world’s most trusted business news and financial information in a variety of media.","home_visible":0,"media_name":"Dow Jones","id":"106","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/150f88aa4d182df19190059f4a365e99"},"pubTimestamp":1662973466,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/2266390451?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2022-09-12 17:04","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Stock-Market Wild Card: What Investors Need to Know as Fed Shrinks Balance Sheet at Faster Pace","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2266390451","media":"Dow Jones","summary":"Quantitative easing is credited with juicing equity returns and boosting other speculative assets by","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>Quantitative easing is credited with juicing equity returns and boosting other speculative assets by flooding markets with liquidity as the Federal Reserve snapped up trillions of dollars in bonds after the financial crisis and amid the coronavirus pandemic.

That will put more pressure on the private sector to absorb those Treasurys, which means less money to put into other assets, he said.The worry for stock-market investors is that high inflation means the Fed won't have the ability to pivot on a dime as it did during past periods of market stress, said Garrib, who argued that the tightening by the Fed and other major central banks could set up the stock market for a test of the June lows in a drop that could go \"significantly below\" those levels.The main takeaway, he said, is \"don't fight the Fed on the way up and don't fight the Fed on the way down.\"Stocks ended higher on Friday, with the Dow Jones Industrial Average , S&P 500  and Nasdaq Composite  snapping a three-week run of weekly losses.The highlight of the week ahead will likely come on Tuesday, with the release of the August consumer-price index, which will be parsed for signs inflation is heading back down.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":141,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9998708765,"gmtCreate":1661052735958,"gmtModify":1676536445827,"author":{"id":"4093501445886610","authorId":"4093501445886610","name":"mrzh","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/c26fff9effd22bd1b2fc753bc22da7f9","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Lovely","listText":"Lovely","text":"Lovely","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9998708765","repostId":"2260353209","repostType":2,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":262,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9907218323,"gmtCreate":1660195316864,"gmtModify":1703478998138,"author":{"id":"4093501445886610","authorId":"4093501445886610","name":"mrzh","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/c26fff9effd22bd1b2fc753bc22da7f9","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Nice","listText":"Nice","text":"Nice","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9907218323","repostId":"2258291275","repostType":2,"repost":{"id":"2258291275","pubTimestamp":1660180913,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/2258291275?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2022-08-11 09:21","market":"us","language":"en","title":"3 Reasons to Buy Apple Stock Now","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2258291275","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"The tech company hasn't said its last word just yet.","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>Is there more fuel left in <b>Apple</b>&#39;s growth engine?

Despite economic headwinds, Apple is managing to do well</h2><p>Fears of a coming (or already present) recession are not unfounded, and inflation is eroding wage gains and savings. In a macroeconomic environment such as this, consumers tend to hold off spending on things they may want but don&#39;t need. That could easily describe many of Apple&#39;s products.

And while these challenging headwinds have certainly impacted its earnings, the tech giant is managing surprisingly well.

Still, overall, Apple&#39;s results were pretty solid. The company owed much of this success to its signature device, the iPhone.</p><h2>2. Long live the iPhone</h2><p>Apple&#39;s iPhone has been its major source of revenue for over a decade now. It arguably no longer generates the buzz it once did; the tech industry used to stop everything and listen every time Apple would announce a new version of its prized device. But demand for the iPhone remains strong. During Apple&#39;s third quarter, revenue from this segment rose 2.8% to $40.7 billion.</p><p>According to CEO Tim Cook, &#34;Looking at the data on iPhone for the June quarter, there&#39;s not obvious evidence in there that there&#39;s a macroeconomic headwind. I&#39;m not saying that there&#39;s not one. I&#39;m saying that the data doesn&#39;t show it where we can clearly see that in the Wearables, Home and Accessories area.&#34;</p><p>Selling more iPhones isn&#39;t just a matter of generating revenue for Apple. It also helps the company grow its installed base, provided a customer not previously part of Apple&#39;s network purchases a new device. That seems to be at least part of the story, as Apple reported that its installed base reached all-time highs across all its products during its latest quarter.</p><p>The long-run implications of these developments are significant. The more people are plugged into Apple&#39;s services network, the more it can monetize these users, and the more it can grow its services revenue. During Apple&#39;s third quarter, the tech giant&#39;s services segment grew faster than the rest of its business, recording total sales of $19.6 billion, 12.1% higher than the year-ago period.</p><h2>3. Margins are making a difference for Apple</h2><p>A key advantage of Apple&#39;s services segment is its higher margins. Although the services segment is still far behind in sales, Apple has made a concerted effort over the years to improve its margins, and this unit has helped these initiatives. During its third quarter, Apple&#39;s products business recorded a gross margin of 34.5%, down 1.5 percentage points compared to the year-ago period.</p><p>However, the company&#39;s services segment saw its margins improve from 69.8% to 71.5%. That helped Apple&#39;s total gross margin remain flat year over year at 43.3%. Investors should look for Apple&#39;s margins to continue improving thanks to its services unit that is growing in importance.</p><h2>Buy Apple and forget</h2><p>Like the rest of the world, Apple is dealing with serious issues at the moment. But the company is not breaking under the weight of its (likely temporary) challenges -- not by a long shot. The customer loyalty it has built over the years is helping it grow sales, especially those of the iPhone. Apple boasts a valuable brand name that is second to none, be it in the technology sector or elsewhere.</p><p>Apple&#39;s services business is positively impacting the company&#39;s margins in a dynamic that will continue for many years. Overall, Apple still looks like an excellent long-term bet for patient investors.

That's more important news for Tesla investors who want to see it grow production by at least 50% per year for several more years. And it explains why the stock popped today, despite the news of Musk's share sales.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":238,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0}],"hots":[{"id":9937804683,"gmtCreate":1663387455642,"gmtModify":1676537264024,"author":{"id":"4093501445886610","authorId":"4093501445886610","name":"mrzh","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/c26fff9effd22bd1b2fc753bc22da7f9","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false},"themes":[],"htmlText":"That's great!","listText":"That's great!","text":"That's great!","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":6,"commentSize":3,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9937804683","repostId":"2268610718","repostType":2,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":292,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9998708765,"gmtCreate":1661052735958,"gmtModify":1676536445827,"author":{"id":"4093501445886610","authorId":"4093501445886610","name":"mrzh","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/c26fff9effd22bd1b2fc753bc22da7f9","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Lovely","listText":"Lovely","text":"Lovely","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9998708765","repostId":"2260353209","repostType":2,"repost":{"id":"2260353209","pubTimestamp":1661042935,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/2260353209?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2022-08-21 08:48","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Amazon Is \"the Dark Horse\" in Streaming As Tech Giants \"Have Nothing to Lose\": Analyst","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2260353209","media":"Yahoo Finance","summary":"The streaming wars have intensified with retail giant Walmart (WMT) officially partnering with Param","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>The streaming wars have intensified with retail giant Walmart (WMT) officially partnering with Paramount Global (PARA), while YouTube TV (GOOGL) is reportedly set to launch an online channel store to compete with the likes of Roku (ROKU), Amazon (AMZN), and Apple (AAPL).</p><p>But with so much competition and a plethora of new strategies peppering the landscape, one platform is standing out to analysts: Amazon Prime Video.</p><p>&#34;From a growth perspective, I actually think Amazon can really be the dark horse,&#34; Geetha Ranganathan, Bloomberg Intelligence senior media analyst, told Yahoo Finance.</p><p>She added the service &#34;can do a lot of damage,&#34; citing its exclusive 15-game &#34;Thursday Night Football&#34; package.

They noted increased actions by the administration to hold social-media companies and purveyors of large digital platforms more accountable with the chances of a Senate vote seemingly dwindling by the hour.</p><p>Industry analysts, however, expressed disappointment at an exclusive, private meeting that recommended punitive actions against the industry&#39;s biggest players without offering a seat at the table. The most controversial reform mentioned on the administration&#39;s list called for &#34;the removal of special protections for large tech platforms,&#34; including changing Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act. The section generally provides website platforms immunity from third-party content.</p><p>&#34;Section 230 provides critical protections for platforms of all sizes to moderate content and take down harmful posts, and our research confirms these protections are most important for smaller sites,&#34; Chamber of Progress CEO Adam Kovacevich said. The trade group is funded by Amazon, Meta, Google, Apple, Twitter Inc. (TWTR), Uber Technologies Inc. <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/UBER\">$(UBER)$</a> and others.</p><p>Six broad goals listed by the White House mirror legislation slowly wending its way through Congress, the latest indication of a growing crackdown by the White House on high tech&#39;s influence while legislation wallows in the Senate and House. The Justice Department is expected to file antitrust lawsuits against Google for its online-ad business and Apple for its dominant App Store in coming weeks, according to reports in The Wall Street Journal, Politico and elsewhere.</p><p>Social media platforms -- in particular, Meta, Twitter, TikTok and YouTube -- have been identified as the scourge of politicians who are playing to popular sentiment for reining in digital-data collectors such as Meta and Amazon. Those two companies are prime targets of the Federal Trade Commission.</p><p>Congressional inaction was reflected earlier this week when a flustered Sen. Amy Klobuchar, a Minnesota Democrat who is author of a bill to tamp down the power of powerful digital platform landlords like Apple and Facebook, claimed an &#34;incredible onslaught of money&#34; has been an obstacle to passing the legislation.</p><p>&#34;What has slowed us down is the incredible onslaught of money, and that&#39;s what happens with monopolies,&#34; Klobuchar, author of the American Innovation and Choice Online Act, said Tuesday at the Code Conference in Los Angeles. &#34;The senators are talking about it, about the ads running in each state.&#34;</p><p>Organizations funded by the technology industry have plowed more than $200 million on political ads and other lobbying efforts since the beginning of 2021, according to ad-tracking service AdImpact and others.</p><p>Klobuchar, who has written a book on antitrust reform and chaired the Senate Judiciary Committee&#39;s hearings on anticompetitive business practices for more than a year, has furiously pushed for a full Senate vote on her landmark bill as time melts with each passing day in the current legislative session. [The White House said Thursday it was encouraged to see bipartisan interest in Congress to adopt antitrust legislation to address the power of major U.S. tech companies.]</p><p>But absent any of the major principal companies in attendance, reporters pressed White House spokeswoman Karine Jean-Pierreon the participation of Mozilla CEO Mitchell Baker and Sonos CEO Patrick Spence to represent the views of the tech industry.</p><p>Sonos and Google are locked in a series of lawsuits against one another over speaker technology since 2020. Sonos called two suits filed last month by Google an &#34;intimidation tactic&#34; intended to &#34;retaliate against Sonos for speaking out against Google&#39;s monopolistic practices&#34; of royalty payments.</p><p>Nonprofit Mozilla, whose Firefox web browser competes with the likes of Google, has repeatedly clashed with Big Tech. On Friday, the company&#39;s chief security officer, Marshall Erwin, urged federal regulators to crack down on internet giants and browser makers that don&#39;t protect users&#39; privacy.</p><p>&#34;Privacy online is a mess, consumers are stuck in this vicious cycle in which their data is collected, often without their understanding, and then used to manipulate them,&#34; Erwin said during an FTC forum on commercial surveillance and data security.</p><p>&#34;The way that we see the roundtable today, it is, again, the largest roundtable that we have seen from this administration to deal with tech,&#34; Jean-Pierresaid. &#34;What you should take out from today, or take away from today, is that, you know, the president&#39;s going to and has long called for fundamental legislative reforms to address real issues.

Because the company has already delivered market-beating returns for years and is near the top of the exclusive group of trillion-dollar companies, some investors are wondering if it&#39;s time to cash in. Others still see signs that Apple isn&#39;t done growing just yet.</p><p>The Silicon Valley giant produced more evidence of its still-solid prospects when it released its latest quarterly update late last month. In it were clues that there are at least three reasons to think Apple isn&#39;t done growing yet and there is still time to get in on outsized returns. Let&#39;s take a look at those reasons.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/4d707ca46aab73e16e1d024655ca86c8\" tg-width=\"720\" tg-height=\"449\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>AAPL data by YCharts</span></p><h2>1. Despite economic headwinds, Apple is managing to do well</h2><p>Fears of a coming (or already present) recession are not unfounded, and inflation is eroding wage gains and savings. In a macroeconomic environment such as this, consumers tend to hold off spending on things they may want but don&#39;t need. That could easily describe many of Apple&#39;s products. A new smartphone is nice, as is a sleek pair of Bluetooth headphones. In reality, no one <i>needs</i> brand new versions of those things that often sell for well-above-average prices.</p><p>This would suggest Apple is going to have a rough go of it. And while these challenging headwinds have certainly impacted its earnings, the tech giant is managing surprisingly well. In its latest quarterly update (the third quarter of its fiscal year 2022, ending on June 25), Apple&#39;s net sales were up by about 2% year over year to $83 billion.</p><p>This modest top-line growth amid the issues Apple is battling is commendable. Apple&#39;s earnings per share did decrease to $1.20, down from the $1.30 reported during the year-ago period. Rising costs and expenses, partly due to inflation, may have played a role here. Still, overall, Apple&#39;s results were pretty solid. The company owed much of this success to its signature device, the iPhone.</p><h2>2. Long live the iPhone</h2><p>Apple&#39;s iPhone has been its major source of revenue for over a decade now. It arguably no longer generates the buzz it once did; the tech industry used to stop everything and listen every time Apple would announce a new version of its prized device. But demand for the iPhone remains strong. During Apple&#39;s third quarter, revenue from this segment rose 2.8% to $40.7 billion.</p><p>According to CEO Tim Cook, &#34;Looking at the data on iPhone for the June quarter, there&#39;s not obvious evidence in there that there&#39;s a macroeconomic headwind. I&#39;m not saying that there&#39;s not one. I&#39;m saying that the data doesn&#39;t show it where we can clearly see that in the Wearables, Home and Accessories area.&#34;</p><p>Selling more iPhones isn&#39;t just a matter of generating revenue for Apple. It also helps the company grow its installed base, provided a customer not previously part of Apple&#39;s network purchases a new device. That seems to be at least part of the story, as Apple reported that its installed base reached all-time highs across all its products during its latest quarter.</p><p>The long-run implications of these developments are significant. The more people are plugged into Apple&#39;s services network, the more it can monetize these users, and the more it can grow its services revenue. During Apple&#39;s third quarter, the tech giant&#39;s services segment grew faster than the rest of its business, recording total sales of $19.6 billion, 12.1% higher than the year-ago period.</p><h2>3. Margins are making a difference for Apple</h2><p>A key advantage of Apple&#39;s services segment is its higher margins. Although the services segment is still far behind in sales, Apple has made a concerted effort over the years to improve its margins, and this unit has helped these initiatives. During its third quarter, Apple&#39;s products business recorded a gross margin of 34.5%, down 1.5 percentage points compared to the year-ago period.</p><p>However, the company&#39;s services segment saw its margins improve from 69.8% to 71.5%. That helped Apple&#39;s total gross margin remain flat year over year at 43.3%. Investors should look for Apple&#39;s margins to continue improving thanks to its services unit that is growing in importance.</p><h2>Buy Apple and forget</h2><p>Like the rest of the world, Apple is dealing with serious issues at the moment. But the company is not breaking under the weight of its (likely temporary) challenges -- not by a long shot. The customer loyalty it has built over the years is helping it grow sales, especially those of the iPhone.

Because the company has already delivered market-beating returns for years and is near the top of the exclusive group of trillion-dollar companies, some investors are wondering if it's time to cash in. Others still see signs that Apple isn't done growing just yet.The Silicon Valley giant produced more evidence of its still-solid prospects when it released its latest quarterly update late last month. In it were clues that there are at least three reasons to think Apple isn't done growing yet and there is still time to get in on outsized returns. Let's take a look at those reasons.AAPL data by YCharts1. Despite economic headwinds, Apple is managing to do wellFears of a coming (or already present) recession are not unfounded, and inflation is eroding wage gains and savings. In a macroeconomic environment such as this, consumers tend to hold off spending on things they may want but don't need. That could easily describe many of Apple's products. A new smartphone is nice, as is a sleek pair of Bluetooth headphones. In reality, no one needs brand new versions of those things that often sell for well-above-average prices.This would suggest Apple is going to have a rough go of it. And while these challenging headwinds have certainly impacted its earnings, the tech giant is managing surprisingly well. In its latest quarterly update (the third quarter of its fiscal year 2022, ending on June 25), Apple's net sales were up by about 2% year over year to $83 billion.This modest top-line growth amid the issues Apple is battling is commendable. Apple's earnings per share did decrease to $1.20, down from the $1.30 reported during the year-ago period. Rising costs and expenses, partly due to inflation, may have played a role here. Still, overall, Apple's results were pretty solid. The company owed much of this success to its signature device, the iPhone.2. Long live the iPhoneApple's iPhone has been its major source of revenue for over a decade now. It arguably no longer generates the buzz it once did; the tech industry used to stop everything and listen every time Apple would announce a new version of its prized device. But demand for the iPhone remains strong. During Apple's third quarter, revenue from this segment rose 2.8% to $40.7 billion.According to CEO Tim Cook, \"Looking at the data on iPhone for the June quarter, there's not obvious evidence in there that there's a macroeconomic headwind. I'm not saying that there's not one. I'm saying that the data doesn't show it where we can clearly see that in the Wearables, Home and Accessories area.\"Selling more iPhones isn't just a matter of generating revenue for Apple. It also helps the company grow its installed base, provided a customer not previously part of Apple's network purchases a new device. That seems to be at least part of the story, as Apple reported that its installed base reached all-time highs across all its products during its latest quarter.The long-run implications of these developments are significant. The more people are plugged into Apple's services network, the more it can monetize these users, and the more it can grow its services revenue. During Apple's third quarter, the tech giant's services segment grew faster than the rest of its business, recording total sales of $19.6 billion, 12.1% higher than the year-ago period.3. Margins are making a difference for AppleA key advantage of Apple's services segment is its higher margins. Although the services segment is still far behind in sales, Apple has made a concerted effort over the years to improve its margins, and this unit has helped these initiatives. During its third quarter, Apple's products business recorded a gross margin of 34.5%, down 1.5 percentage points compared to the year-ago period.However, the company's services segment saw its margins improve from 69.8% to 71.5%. That helped Apple's total gross margin remain flat year over year at 43.3%. Investors should look for Apple's margins to continue improving thanks to its services unit that is growing in importance.Buy Apple and forgetLike the rest of the world, Apple is dealing with serious issues at the moment. But the company is not breaking under the weight of its (likely temporary) challenges -- not by a long shot. The customer loyalty it has built over the years is helping it grow sales, especially those of the iPhone. Apple boasts a valuable brand name that is second to none, be it in the technology sector or elsewhere.Apple's services business is positively impacting the company's margins in a dynamic that will continue for many years. Overall, Apple still looks like an excellent long-term bet for patient investors. No wonder it is one of Warren Buffett's favorite stocks.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":150,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9907219707,"gmtCreate":1660195050911,"gmtModify":1703478994255,"author":{"id":"4093501445886610","authorId":"4093501445886610","name":"mrzh","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/c26fff9effd22bd1b2fc753bc22da7f9","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Ok","listText":"Ok","text":"Ok","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9907219707","repostId":"2258224852","repostType":2,"repost":{"id":"2258224852","pubTimestamp":1660190080,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/2258224852?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2022-08-11 11:54","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Why Wednesday’s Jump in Tesla Shares Surprised Investors","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2258224852","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"Musk may be selling shares, but investors aren't reading too much into it.","content":"<html><head></head><body><p><b>KEY POINTS</b></p><ul><li>The Tesla CEO explained that he sold shares for what seems like a prudent reason.</li><li>Tesla has upgraded its critical Shanghai plant to be able to produce more than 1 million vehicles per year.</li></ul><p><b>What happened</b></p><p>Many investors would have expected <b>Tesla</b> shares to be sinking on Wednesday.
