Tesla Stock Performance: Tesla's stock rose 8% on Wednesday but has shown volatility, dropping five of the past ten days. The stock is currently trading within a new range between $380 and $480, significantly higher than the previous resistance level of $270.
Future Catalysts and Risks: Analysts suggest that Tesla needs new catalysts for growth, such as licensing its self-driving technology or selling humanoid robots, while also facing potential risks from high interest rates and possible elimination of EV tax credits under the incoming Trump administration.
