TESLA INC. (NASDAQ:TSLA): Wedbush Has Good News For Tesla Bulls
Tesla stock jumped 4.91% on Fri, to close at $133.42, after a Wedbush survey based upon over 500 prospective EV buyers in China showed that 76% of EV Chinese consumers are considering buying a Tesla after price cuts, while BYD came in second place followed by Nio, per Yahoo Finance. Tesla stock is now retesting the trendline resistance at around $124.35 and $135.13.
On Tue, China Merchants Bank International (CMBI) also reported identical numbers to the Wedbush survey, showing that average daily sales for Tesla in China during the Jan 9 to Jan 15 period jumped 76% Y-O-Y. The CMBI data, however, showed that the BYD sales increase more than doubled, outperforming Tesla.
It might be interesting to see the results of the similar Wedbush survey in the US, where the Tesla brand net favorability has dropped significantly over the past year, according to Morning Consult.
We will find out more next week, when Tesla reports its 4Q22 earnings on Jan 25, whether strong buyer sentiment translates into higher sales.
