Shares of Tesla declined 15.4% for the week after CEO Elon Musk commenced
with his plans to sell a huge block of his holdings this week.
It marks Tesla’s worst one-week performance in 20 months. It’s also the
stock’s worst week ever excluding declines that occurred in February and
March 2020 — as the coronavirus pandemic emerged in the U.S., roiling
markets.
Tesla closed down 2.8% on Friday.
Musk — who still owns more than 167 million shares of Tesla, according to
financial filings out Friday morning — sold stock worth around $5.7 billion
this week.
Musk sold shares in part to satisfy tax obligations related to an exercise of
stock options. Before his sale plan was made public, Musk asked his 62.5
million Twitter followers to vote in an informal poll, telling them their
vote would determine the future of his Tesla holdings. This week’s filings
reveal he knew some of his shares were slated for sale this week.
Tesla shares are still up around 46% year to date following a record closing
price of $1,229.91 on Nov. 4, 2021.
By comparison, Ford shares are up around 120%, General Motors shares are up
around 51% and Volkswagen AG shares have risen around 66% year-to-date.
The slump in Tesla’s stock price followed a sell-off, and coincided with a
record-breaking IPO in autos for Rivian, a newer maker of fully electric
pickup trucks and sport utility vehicles.
Shares of Rivian closed rose 5.6% on Friday. It’s up around 66.6% since its
debut on Wednesday.
Rivian raised around $12 billion in its market debut Wednesday, making its
IPO the largest in the world this year so far. Rivian now ranks the second
most valuable car manufacturer in the U.S. behind Tesla, though it expects to
record less than $1 million in sales for the third quarter.
In financial filings, Rivian said that it has 55,400 preorders for its R1S
SUV and R1T pickup truck, plus a contract to build 100,000 electric delivery
vans for Amazon by 2030.
Musk responded to Rivian’s IPO success on Twitter saying:
“I hope they’re able to achieve high production & breakeven cash flow. That
is the true test. There have been hundreds of automotive startups, both
electric & combustion, but Tesla is only American carmaker to reach high
volume production & positive cash flow in past 100 years.”
心得/評論：
咦? 原來上個禮拜是 TSLA 自從去年三月之後跌最多的一個禮拜
我還以為去年分割後或是今年2、3月那波跌比較多
記得都有一天 -20% 過
