Tesla's Recent Shareholder Meeting May Appease Bulls

Ben HernandezMay 24, 2023
2023-05-24

With a year-to-date gain of just over 60%, Tesla stock keeps rolling higher, and the company’s recent shareholder meeting could continue to appease the bulls — if the electric automaker manages to hit its goals.

Tesla (TSLA) founder and CEO Elon Musk affirmed investors that he could allocate more energy to the automotive industry following his $44 billion buyout of social media service Twitter. In a CNBC report, Musk deemed the buyout a “short-term distraction” which apparently addressed concerns of some critical shareholders.

“Since the electric vehicle maker’s last annual meeting in August 2022, Tesla’s largest retail shareholder, Leo Koguan, has criticized Musk for selling billions of dollars worth of his Tesla holdings to finance a $44 billion buyout of Twitter,” the aforementioned CNBC report noted.

Additionally, the release of the highly anticipated Cybertruck this year should invoke some shareholder excitement. Per Musk’s comments in the shareholder meeting, Tesla should be able to make 250,000 to 500,000 deliveries of the Cybertruck per year once production kicks off.

Of course, in the economic backdrop is the threat of a potential recession. Musk did confirm that the company is well-positioned in the long run should any economic road blocks come up.

Add Leverage to Your Bullish Tesla Position

Given the recent shareholder meeting, traders who are bullish on Tesla can add leverage via single-stock ETFs from Direxion Investments. In particular, the Direxion Daily TSLA Bull 1.5X Shares (TSLL ) adds 50% more exposure to maximize gains when Tesla’s stock heads upward — so far it has been this year, but can it keep the momentum moving forward?

Positive sentiment is permeating to various market analysts. One analyst, in particular, likes the idea of Musk spending less time at Twitter so he can focus more of his energy on Tesla.

“Many investors look at Twitter’s success as important for Tesla shares as it means Musk is less likely to need to sell down more of his Tesla stake to fund operations at Twitter,” said RBC Capital Markets analyst Tom Narayan.

Furthermore, Tesla’s recent price cuts could have a net positive effect on its bottom line. Mainly, offering a price-competitive alternative to other models within its range.

“Tesla’s price cuts have taken prices effectively down where they are competitive with ICE models,” he said.
