TSLL fails to deliver 2x Tesla's return in every positive-return scenario at Tesla's historical volatility. The fund's prospectus table, mapping stock return against volatility over one year, shows that at Tesla's 67% five-year volatility a 60% gain in Tesla yields just 45.9% from the fund, not the 120% investors expect. Across those combinations, holders should expect less than 2x roughly 58% of the time, getting the leverage when they least want it. x.comÂ
Holding Tesla's 2x leveraged ETF can lose money even when Tesla goes nowhere, because volatility drag and the rising cost of leverage compound against holders. In 2025 Tesla finished roughly flat, yet a hypothetical 2x position trailed badly as daily losses compounded on a shrinking base. TSLL trailed even that, since derivatives get pricier as volatility rises, making leverage most expensive precisely when it hurts most. x.com x.com x.comÂ
Tesla's 2x leveraged ETF TSLL is not advisable to hold for extended periods, unlike Tesla shares, because daily resets and volatility decay can make it underperform badly even if Tesla recovers. Its weekly chart keeps forming lower highs and lower lows, a clear downtrend, while whale accumulation has dropped sharply as large players cut exposure. If it fails to hold support near $7, the next meaningful support is $6.00-6.20. x.comÂ
Tesla's $1.5T Elon premium looks unjustified while Musk seems to favor SpaceX for the AI compute buildout. Tesla shareholders missed almost the entire AI boom; owning xAI and building that infrastructure might have doubled Tesla's stock. Q3 adjusted EPS was $0.48, down 4% year over year; if Tesla were a non-Musk company, four such quarters at 10x earnings would mean $19.20 a share versus $386. Long-term company prospects remain attractive, but the stock is still not worth buying back. x.com … Show more
Tesla's growth across multiple businesses makes the Direxion Daily TSLA Bull 2X ETF's decline this week another opportunity to buy the dip. Vehicle sales, energy demand, Supercharging, FSD, services, Robotaxi and Semi are gaining momentum; Tesla is growing, not declining. x.comÂ
Tesla's fundamentals have not caught up with its valuation, since revenue has stayed basically flat for four years. x.comÂ
Tesla's valuation has never been reasonable since 2013, not even in the 2018 and 2022 selloffs, so it has no place in a valuation-driven investment approach today. x.comÂ
Tesla is building multiple growth engines beyond cars. Robotaxi paid miles nearly tripled in Q1 2026 to 1.7M and 1.28M FSD subscribers add recurring revenue. Optimus has 180K units ordered, targeting 1M a year at Fremont by end-2026, and energy deployments hit a record 14.4 GWh with margins beating automotive. Tesla holds SpaceX exposure via its xAI investment as SpaceX targets a $1.75T IPO, and Dan Ives sees a Tesla-SpaceX-xAI merger within 12-18 months. x.comÂ
Tesla still trades at roughly 300x earnings even after falling 14% today. x.comÂ
Tesla's valuation has tripled even though its revenue has declined over three years. x.comÂ
Tesla's valuation is gradually starting to matter, with shares at 140 times a 2027 non-GAAP EPS consensus that likely gets cut. The stock fell 4% after a gross margin and EPS miss. Many fans reflexively buy post-earnings drops no matter the results, which creates opportunities. x.com x.com x.comÂ
Tesla's options flow points to a bullish or neutral outlook, with a $15M put seller positioned out to October. Selling puts signals an expectation that the stock stays bullish or neutral through expiration, while leaving lots of room for error and drawdown. x.com x.com x.comÂ
