Tesla shares up on earnings

Tesla shares rose 8% yesterday in extended trade on the IG platform, up a further notch higher by a margin of 5% on from what we saw during full trading yesterday. And this is as a result of earnings out late last night.

Let's take a look at the figures. The electric carmaker reported earnings of $1.19 per share after the US markets closed. That's $0.04 higher than analysts expected. Revenue was just short of expectations at $24.32 billion. These are record numbers, according to the company.

In a call to investors, CEO Elon Musk said he expected a pretty difficult recession this year for the US economy. But demand for Tesla vehicles, he says, will be good, despite a probable contraction in the automotive market as a whole, adding that absent external disruptions, 2023 deliveries could hit two million vehicles.

Share price chart

Overall, let's take a look at the share price chart.

This stock is now up 51% from the lows that we had back in January and I'm talking January this year. So it's just shy of three weeks. That is a whopping increase. But you've got to bear in mind, the stock has fallen substantially from the record highs we saw back on the 4th of November 2021. We've lost 75.6% of overall value in Tesla.

So this uptick here when you're looking at this sort of improvement from those lows, it is an incredible move in terms of percentages, but it's risen from $103 up to $152.

So that's what we're opening this morning at 9:00 UK time, extended trade after that big gain yesterday on those numbers coming through from Tesla.

    • Recently, the Australian S&P/ASX 200 index slightly fell by 0.01%, with this fluctuation mainly influenced by the latest release of the Consumer Price Index (CPI) data. This data not only demonstrates current inflationary pressures but also directly impacts the stock market in the short term. Senior analyst Thomas McGee delves into the impact of these economic indicators on the Australian stock market and discusses the economic logic behind this data and its potential effects on future monetary policy by the Reserve Bank of Australia (RBA). Market Impact of Inflation Data The CPI data for the first quarter released today showed an annual growth rate of 3.6%, surpassing the market expectation of 3.4%. This immediate announcement led to a drop of about 0.5% in the S&P/ASX 200 index, and the market failed to recover these losses by the closing bell. Thomas McGee points out that this rapid response highlights the sensitivity of investors to inflation trends and their immediate impact on the stock market. In addition to the direct reaction of the stock market, the yield of Australian 2-year government bonds also significantly rose by 0.12%, breaking the 4.4% level for the first time since December last year. This change not only reflects the response of the bond market to the CPI data but may also indicate a cautious stance by the RBA regarding rate adjustments in the short term. Forward-looking Analysis of Monetary Policy Following the release of inflation data, the expectation on the market of the first rate cut of RBA has been postponed to after 2025. Thomas McGee emphasizes the importance of this change for investment strategies. He suggests that investors consider how changes in monetary policy will affect market dynamics when making long-term investment decisions, especially in a scenario where rates may remain elevated for an extended period. With inflation data showing higher than expected figures, the market predicts that the RBA may not cut rates in the short term, intensifying expectations of rate hikes. Thomas McGee mentions that this shift in expectations requires investors to reassess their investment portfolios, particularly in terms of fixed-income asset allocation. Furthermore, Thomas McGee notes that although the market may face pressure in the short term, this could also present entry opportunities for investors seeking higher yields. Companies that can maintain cash flow in a high-rate environment may become preferred investment targets. Addressing Challenges and Seizing Opportunities Despite the uncertainties and challenges brought by the current inflation data, Thomas McGee believes that investors can still find stable investment opportunities in this complex environment through thorough market analysis and understanding of future economic policy trends. He encourages investors to maintain flexible investment strategies while closely monitoring changes in economic indicators and central bank policies to effectively address potential market fluctuations and achieve value growth in future investments.
