TSLA Stock Performance and Statistics
Tesla’s stock has shown remarkable resilience in 2025, despite a challenging start. According to recent data, TSLA surged 22% in May 2025, marking its best monthly performance since November 2024. This rally followed a low of $222 per share in March, with the stock rebounding to approximately $363 by late May, as reported by posts on X. However, year-to-date, TSLA remains down over 14% from its all-time high of $479.86 in December 2024, per Dow Jones Market Data Group. The stock’s 50-day moving average crossed bullishly above its 10-day moving average on May 6, 2025, signaling a potential upward trend, according to Tickeron.com.
Key financial metrics from Tesla’s Q1 2025 earnings report highlight a mixed picture: earnings fell 71% year-over-year, with a 13% drop in vehicle deliveries and revenue missing estimates. Despite these setbacks, Tesla’s stock rallied, supported by investor optimism around its autonomous driving initiatives, particularly the anticipated robotaxi launch in June 2025. Posts on X suggest a price target range of $384–$500 by early June, with Wedbush analyst Dan Ives raising his target to $500, citing Tesla’s “golden age of autonomous” nearing with the Austin robotaxi debut.
Key Market News for TSLA on June 5, 2025
Musk’s Return from DOGE and Market Sentiment
Elon Musk’s return to Tesla after his involvement with the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) has been a significant catalyst for TSLA’s recent performance. Investors welcomed Musk’s renewed focus, contributing to the 22% stock surge in May. However, his government stint sparked controversy, leading to vandalism against nearly 50% of Tesla owners, according to a study cited by The Cool Down. This backlash, combined with a decline in global sales in Q1 2025, has created a complex narrative for Tesla’s brand.
Autonomous Driving and Robotaxi Developments
Tesla’s advancements in Full Self-Driving (FSD) technology have bolstered investor confidence. A head-to-head test between Tesla and Waymo’s self-driving taxis in San Francisco highlighted Tesla’s competitive edge, with posts on X projecting FSD penetration could exceed 50%, significantly enhancing Tesla’s margins. The upcoming robotaxi launch in Austin is seen as a pivotal moment, potentially driving TSLA toward $509.71, as speculated by some analysts on X.
Trade Policy and Manufacturing Shifts
President Donald Trump’s push for U.S.-based manufacturing, announced on May 30, 2025, has implications for Tesla. The mandate to build vehicles and parts domestically aligns with Tesla’s existing U.S. production facilities, such as its Austin Gigafactory. However, looming tariffs, including a proposed 50% tariff on the European Union starting June 1, 2025, could disrupt Tesla’s European sales, which already face challenges outside Norway, where Model Y deliveries soared over 200% in May.
Comparison with a Highly Correlated Stock: Nvidia (NVDA)
Tesla’s stock often moves in tandem with other tech giants, particularly Nvidia (NVDA), due to their shared focus on AI and innovation. Both companies are part of the “Magnificent Seven” tech stocks, which drove 62% of the S&P 500’s advance in May 2025. Nvidia, like Tesla, posted over 20% gains in May, fueled by its dominance in AI chip production. While Tesla’s market cap hovers around $1.15 trillion as of June 2025, Nvidia’s exceeds $3 trillion, reflecting its broader AI exposure. However, Tesla’s pivot to autonomous driving gives it a unique edge in the mobility sector, whereas Nvidia’s strength lies in data center revenue, which grew nearly 900% from Q4 2023 to Q4 2025.

Industries’ Descriptions
Semiconductors (+2.58% weekly)
The semiconductor industry manufacturers all chip-related products, including research and development. These chips are used in innumerable electronic devices, including computers, cell phones, smartphones, and GPSs. Intel Corporation, NVIDIA Corp., and Broadcom are some of the prominent players in this industry. Semiconductor companies usually tend to do well during periods of healthy economic growth, thereby inducing further research and development in the industry, which in turn augurs well for productivity and growth in the economy. In the near future, demand for semiconductor products (and possibly innovation within the segment) should only expand further, with the proliferation of 5G, autonomous vehicles, IoT, and various AI-driven electronics set to herald a new, advanced chapter in the technology-driven world as we know it. With burgeoning prospects comes great competition. In 2015, SIA estimated that the U.S. semiconductor industry ranks as the second most competitive U.S. industry out of 2882 U.S. industries designated manufacturers by the U.S. Census Bureau.
Motor Vehicles (+0.31% weekly)
Automobiles continue to be arguably the most popular form of passenger travel in the U.S., and major automobile makers have revenues and market capitalizations running into the multi-billions. In recent years, the industry has been experiencing some path-breaking innovations like electric vehicles and self-driving technology. While there are long-standing companies like General Motors, Ford, and Toyota Motors operating in this space, there are also emerging/rapidly growing players like Tesla, which has had a major role in the growing popularity of the electric vehicle market. With technological advancements taking steam in the auto space, we’ve also witnessed collaborations (or talks of potential partnerships) of carmakers with tech behemoths like Google’s subsidiary, Waymo.
TSLA vs. TSDD: Understanding the Inverse ETF
The Direxion Daily TSLA Bear 1X Shares (TSDD) is an inverse exchange-traded fund (ETF) designed to provide daily investment results that correspond to the inverse (-1x) of Tesla’s daily stock performance. As TSLA rallied 22% in May, TSDD experienced a corresponding decline, reflecting its bearish stance. According to Tickeron.com, TSDD is non-diversified and primarily uses financial instruments like swap agreements to achieve its inverse exposure to TSLA. For instance, a 3% daily gain in TSLA would theoretically result in a 3% loss for TSDD, before fees and expenses.
TSDD is a high-risk instrument suited for short-term traders betting against Tesla’s performance. Its average monthly price growth was -77% in May, mirroring TSLA’s strong upward movement. Investors considering TSDD should be cautious of its volatility and leverage, as prolonged TSLA rallies can lead to significant losses. For detailed analysis, visit Tickeron.com.
