Yesterday’s hit stock has cooled a bit today—but it’s still working its way higher.
Shares of EV maker Tesla (TSLA) were up approaching 3% in early trading Friday to around $268, outperforming the benchmark S&P 500. (Read today’s markets coverage here.) That’s small dramatic than the numbers the stock turned in Thursday as the company saw its shares rise 22%, its biggest percentage on in more than a decade, on the back of an earnings report and outlook investors cheered.
Today’s move has the stock on keep a record of for a weekly gain of about 21% from last Friday’s close of $220.70. It has the company’s market capitalization at approximately $840 billion, according to Visible Alpha data. Analysts tracked by Visible Alpha have yet to catch up to Tesla’s most recent ride higher, with their mean price target at about $232.
It also comes as the other six of the so-called Luxurious Seven megacap tech shares—Alphabet (GOOGL), Amazon (AMZN), Apple (AAPL), Meta Platforms (META), Microsoft (MSFT) and Nvidia (NVDA)—go up, with all but Apple up more than 1% in recent trading.
That would point toward general optimism in the lead of quarterly financial results from Apple, Alphabet, Microsoft, and Meta that are expected next week.
