TSLA: Next Target 450?

By -

Tesla’s (TSLA) meteoric rise from June this year has sent it to all-time highs, as shown on the following monthly chart…and has resulted in a 119.67% gain since then, as shown on the next graph. It’s been heavily favoured above the FAANGs.

The Balance of Power lies firmly with buyers and is approaching an all-time high. Watch for that to continue on this longer-term timeframe to support a further rally.

Momentum Stocks to Watch

By -

These four stocks are moving on news and gaining technical momentum.

Axsome Therapeutics, Inc. (AXSM) jumped $8.60 to $89.57 on 2.6 million shares Wednesday, more than double its average volume.  On Monday the biotech company said its experimental treatment for depression met the primary endpoint in a Phase 3 clinical trial. The move popped the stock through the top of an already steep channel rising from the $20 level just two months ago. Watch for $106 next.

Bed Bath & Beyond Inc. (BBBY) gained 84 cents to $17.72 on 10.5 million shares Wednesday. The move followed news of a restructuring in which six senior leaders are leaving the specialty retailer.  The stock has been stair-stepping up its rising channel since its mid-August low at $7.31, and the channel top now points to a target of $20-$20.50.
