Tesla (TSLA) Shares Fall After ‘We, Robot’ Presentation
FXOpen
On 10 October, at the Warner Brothers studio in Burbank, California, Elon Musk unveiled three products during the presentation of “We, Robot”:
→ Cybercab – an autonomous robotaxi that Musk claims will be produced in very large quantities.
→ Robovan – an autonomous bus capable of transporting 20 people or cargo, with an expected price tag of under $30,000.
→ Optimus Gen 2 – humanoid robots that participated in the event, with Musk showcasing a video of how Optimus can be used in home settings.
Elon Musk stated that Tesla anticipates the arrival of fully autonomous vehicles without supervision in Texas and California by next year.
Despite the revolutionary nature of the products presented under the Tesla brand, investors seem disappointed, as TSLA shares are trading around $225 in pre-market today, down from over $238 at yesterday's close.
Technical analysis of the Tesla (TSLA) stock chart indicates that the ascending channel (marked in purple), which has guided the price upward since August, may break downward at the market open today.
From a broader perspective, TSLA shares are within a wide ascending channel (shown in blue) – the bearish momentum following the “We, Robot” event could potentially push the price down to the lower boundary, further distancing it from resistance at the $260 level.
Investors may reevaluate their initial reactions to the unveiled Cybercab, Robovan, and Optimus. Nonetheless, the current decline in TSLA's stock price serves as a warning ahead of the earnings report scheduled for 23 October.
