First off, please don't take anything I say seriously or as financial advice. As always, this is on opinion basis. That being said, let me collectively analyze my thoughts. Tesla's stock fluctuations are partly due to spread as well as analyst activity. However, over time, price correlations are stable. It obviously performed quite well as a long term hold stock. That being said, currently the most profitable way to make money with Tesla stock is likely day trading. The long term strategies barely have any growth potential in comparison to active day trading and buy and sell targets. This just proves it.
