Tesla's stock performance might be attracting a heavy dose of criticism when compared to its Magnificent Seven peers. However, CEO Elon Musk reaffirmed his commitment to the electric vehicle (EV) maker.
Direxion Daily TSLA Bull 2X Shares ETF is a leveraged ETF aiming for 2x TSLA's daily return, designed for active traders seeking to amplify their Tesla, Inc. trading performance. My bullish outlook on TSLA, driven by Tesla's autonomous robotics, Robotaxi program, and closed-loop ecosystem, supports a BUY rating for the TSLL ETF. TSLL's daily reset can amplify gains or losses, making it crucial to understand the risks in holding shares beyond a single day.
Direxion Daily TSLA Bull 2X Shares offers double the daily movement of Tesla, but comes with significant risk due to its leveraged nature. Loss recoupment and volatility are critical factors; negative movements impact TSLL more severely than equivalent positive movements, making it unsuitable for long-term holding. Tesla's recent earnings were underwhelming, but future growth potential lies in autonomous driving, energy storage, AI, and robotics.
I have a sell rating on TSLL due to TSLA's ongoing volatility and poor earnings reactions, making it unsuitable for long-term investment. EV prices have dropped significantly, presenting downside risks for Tesla's Q3 profit report and impacting TSLL's performance. TSLL should be used as a short-term trading vehicle, not a long-term investment, due to the inherent risks of leveraged ETFs.
TSLL is a buy and can be used to build starting position to tap into the revived growth opportunities with TSLA. TSLL is a (2X) leveraged ETF with single underlying TSLA. Its volatility and risks should be hedged by owning TSLS (1X inverse). TSLL can generate good income by selling the covered calls. TSLL and TSLS both offer dividend which is added benefits for shareholders.
