Tesla Stock Wipes Out Three Day Bounce, Falls to Lowest Price in More Than 2 Years

Dow Jones2023-01-04

  • EV maker sinks to 15th on the list of most valuable S&P 500 companies

It has taken just one day for Tesla Inc.’s stock to erase the entire bounce it enjoyed over the last three days trading sessions of 2022, as disappointing deliveries data helped trigger the biggest selloff in more than two years.

The stock’s TSLA Tuesday drop knocked the electric vehicle maker’s market capitalization to 15th on the list of most valuation S&P 500 index companies.

On Tuesday, Tesla’s market cap fell below that of consumer products company Procter & Gamble Co. PG, with a current market cap of $359.18 billion, and was just below Nvidia Corp. NVDA at $352.15 billion, according to FactSet data. Tesla sat just above Chevron Corp. CVX, which was at $336.43 billion. (See list of S&P 500’s 20 most valuable companies as of Tuesday’s closing prices below.)

Tesla’s stock took a $15.08, or 12.2% dive, to $108.10 on Tuesday, to lead the S&P 500’s SPX decliners, after the company reported over the weekend that fourth-quarter deliveries that came up short of expectations for the third quarter in a row. It suffered the biggest one-day decline since it plummeted 21.1% on Sept. 8, 2020, and closed at the lowest price since Aug. 13, 2020.

With about 3.16 billion shares outstanding as of Oct. 18, the stock’s decline shaved about $47.62 billion off Tesla’s market cap, to bring it down to $341.35 billion. That’s a far cry from the peak market cap of $1.24 trillion reached exactly one-year ago.

After the stock hit the deepest oversold reading in its history based on the widely followed Relative Strength Index momentum indicator on Dec. 27, following the longest losing streak in more than four years, it ran up $14.08, or 12.9%, over the past three days.

If there’s a bright side to Tuesday’s stock selloff, it’s that even though the price fell below the Dec. 27 closing price, the RSI ended the day at 24.86, which is up from the Dec. 27 record low of 16.56.

That could be a preliminary sign of what chart watchers call “bullish technical divergence,” which is when prices make lower lows while the RSI makes a higher low. It’s still rather early to make that determination, however, as the stock needs to start bouncing again to see if RSI bottoms above the previous low.

    LOL. RSI @ 24.86 = bullish divergence?? Good luck to anybody who trades based on RSI. At least this fella didn't mention about options activities or even Cathy wood catching the knife, so we should catch together...!  🤪

    "Bullish Technical Divergence". What does that mean? Perhaps bringing Tom Zhu to thenumber 2 position could be it? The start of bringing in a professional to run Tesla?
