Tesla will join the SP500

S&P Global announced that Tesla will join the SP500 on Monday December 21st.

Tesla will become the largest company in history when included in the SP500 index. Its quotes soared 14% on news of inclusion in the index. The share of Tesla with a market capitalization of $ 385 billion in the total capitalization of the entire index (about $ 28 trillion) will exceed 1.3%. This event will entail an automatic inflow of investor funds in the amount of about $ 51 billion.

Inclusion in the S&P 500 is in line with Wall Street's expectations for Tesla's first full calendar year of profits in 2020. The company posted profits in the first three quarters of the year, despite a pandemic in which local authorities in California ordered the temporary closure of Tesla's only US car factory. The company posted a record $ 331 million in third-quarter profit driven by production at its Shanghai plant, where Tesla benefits from cheaper labor and strong demand for its more affordable Model 3.

In the third quarter, Tesla was backed by $ 397 million in loans, helping it reach profitability. The company aims to ultimately produce 20 million electric vehicles a year and become the world's largest automaker. Tesla delivered a record nearly 140,000 vehicles in the third quarter and is on track to meet its goal of 500,000 vehicle shipments per year.

TSLA moves in an uptrend channel . Today it has broken the resistance line of symmetrical triangle. Price encountered the resistance level of $460. The next markable target for bulls will be near $600.

Best regards EXCAVO
