Short Squeeze Surge: Can Tesla Pull Off a Plot Twist?

$Tesla Motors(TSLA)$ is becoming the headline of the stock market every day. The latest is it jumps 12%.

Musk has once again stabilized market confidence. How long can this market rebound last?

Elon Musk tells Tesla employees to "hang onto your stock," urges vandals to "stop being psycho." Musk stated that the main model, the Model Y, is expected to become the "best-selling car in the world" again.

Tesla surged 12% and closed at $278, with resistance at $300 and support at $250. Some investors expect to take profits at $300. Currently, Tesla’s European sales are still weak, and April's delivery data may lead to further declines.

Tesla has become a political tool for both the Republicans and Democrats. Who will succeed?

Since Musk joined Trump's camp and took charge of the "Department of Government Efficiency," he has impacted the core interests of the Democrats by cutting 100,000 federal employees and canceling hundreds of government contracts.

Billionaires like George Soros have shorted Tesla by borrowing shares, with short speculation accounting for 18.7% of the circulating stock. They also manipulate the media by publishing negative reports and funding environmental organizations. This series of actions led to Tesla’s stock price plummeting to $220, with a market value loss exceeding $1 trillion.

Meanwhile, the Republicans have retaliated.

Trump publicly bought a red Model S and drove it to the White House, personally promoting it. He also posted strong statements on social media, threatening that those who damage Tesla cars would face 20 years in prison.

The Department of Justice has also supported Tesla, urging the public to buy Tesla stock.

The FBI has set up a special task force to investigate the rising number of Tesla car destruction cases, which have increased by over 80%.

Retail Investors Bearish vs. Reddit Group Shorting Tesla: Which Side Are You On?

The continuous influx of retail funds has provided the "support" for this rebound. According to data from JPMorgan, as of last Thursday, retail investors have net bought Tesla stock for 13 consecutive trading days, with total funds exceeding $8 billion—an intensity not seen in the past ten years.

However, a group on Reddit called ElonMuskHate is reportedly trying to short Tesla. They are buying $100 puts for June 20, 2025.

    I believe Tesla's $Tesla Motors(TSLA)$   recent 12% surge is a strong sign that market confidence is being restored, especially after Musk's direct engagement with employees and the public. However, while short-term momentum is promising, I remain cautious. The $300 resistance level is a key psychological barrier, and with weak European sales and potentially disappointing April delivery numbers, Tesla could face another pullback. I'll be closely watching how institutional investors react in the coming weeks.

    The political influence on Tesla's stock is undeniable, and this ongoing battle between billionaires, government agencies, and retail investors adds another layer of volatility. While Musk's role in Trump's administration has stirred controversy, it has also strengthened Tesla's support among conservatives. On the other hand, large-scale shorting efforts and media narratives continue to put downward pressure on the stock. The retail-driven rally is impressive, but history has shown that such moves can be fragile if macroeconomic conditions or company fundamentals don't align.

    For my own strategy, I plan to take partial profits around $350. While Tesla has significant long-term potential, especially with AI and energy expansion, I want to de-risk as the stock moves higher. If Tesla faces another sharp drop, I might consider adding to my position. For now, I'll ride this rebound while staying aware of the potential downside risks.

    Tesla very likely will replicate last year’s big drop at start of year, then a rise from a low opening. Many investors believe in ‘Elon Musk’s effect”. He is most powerful and influential now and he knows the direction of the U.S. government’s economic policies. Thanks @Tiger_comments

    No telling who will win this political struggle. It really is just a show for the public and doesn’t result in anything material for the US’ economy or the world’s. Can’t tell if Tesla can replicate last year’s script. Ultimately, I feel it will boil down to the sales of the cars, whether there are new innovations to spark confidence by investors and political support for it. I’ve never bought Tesla as I feel that it is too unpredictable due to Elon’s eccentric approach and his preference to dabble in issues like X and politics that does not appear to directly help his company and often seen as distraction or invitation for hatred by opposition parties. If I hold the stock, I would take profit now. It’s quite good for swing trading rather than for investment. @rL @SPOT_ON @Success88 @Universe宇宙 @DiAngel @HelenJanet @Wayneqq @Fenger1188 @Kaixiang come join

    特斯拉(TSLA)今年是否会复制去年的走势——年初下跌,随后低开拉升?这个问题很有意思,但市场从不简单重复过去的剧本。


    先看背景,特斯拉去年初大跌的主要原因是市场担忧需求疲软、盈利能力下降,但随后公司靠降价策略、交付增长以及AI和自动驾驶的长期愿景,成功让股价反弹。今年情况有所不同,尽管特斯拉依然面临毛利率压力,但市场关注的核心已经转向宏观经济、利率政策以及自动驾驶的真正落地时间。


    短期来看,如果市场情绪恢复、AI概念继续被热炒,特斯拉仍然有望走出类似去年的反弹行情。但不同于2024年,今年市场对于企业盈利的要求更高,如果特斯拉无法拿出新的增长点,股价可能不会像去年那样轻松翻倍。


    至于止盈点,我的策略比较灵活。若短线交易,300美元是一个重要参考位,突破后可能看向350-400美元区间。但如果是长期持有,我更关注基本面变化,尤其是FSD(完全自动驾驶)商业化、储能业务增长等关键因素。一旦发现市场对这些核心业务的预期开始降温,可能会考虑逐步止盈。

    [Thinking] I don't think Tesla is going to replicate the previous runnin [Facepalm], hence looking forward to 300 ++ to" Run like a Wind" First. At least reduce position [Tongue]. Thereafter, wait & see [Glance].

    散戶資金的持續涌入,爲本輪反彈提供了“支撐”。摩根大通的數據顯示,截至上週四,散戶投資者已連續13個交易日淨買入特斯拉股票,資金總額超過80億美元——這是過去十年未見的強度。

    然而,據報道,Reddit上一個名爲ElonMuskHate的團體正試圖做空特斯拉。他們正在購買2025年6月20日價值100美元的看跌期權。

    自馬斯克加入特朗普陣營、執掌“政府效率部”以來,通過削減10萬聯邦僱員、取消數百份政府合同等方式衝擊民主黨核心利益。

    像喬治·索羅斯這樣的億萬富翁做空特斯拉通過借股,炒空佔流通股的18.7%。他們還通過發佈負面報道和資助環保組織來操縱媒體。這一系列動作導致特斯拉股價暴跌至220美元,以市值損失超過1萬億美元。
