The Week’s Biggest Winner & Loser

Tesla (TSLA)

The Bears really hate Tesla (TSLA) and its CEO Elon Musk, and, for the past several months, betting against Tesla has been a great trade… until this week’s earnings report where Tesla reported… the… best… earnings… it… ever… HAS.

As a result, the Bears had to cover their shorts while the Bulls raced back into the beleaguered stock, causing Tesla to jump a spectacular +33.31% in a matter of days

Naturally, this also makes Tesla (TSLA) the biggest Winner of the Week. 

Schwab (SCHW)

The dark cloud that was Schwab’s (SCHW) terrible earnings report last week continued to hang over the stock, causing it to drop -3.02% and earning it the worst kind of two-in-a-row… the losing kind. Yes, Schwab was once again the Week’s Biggest Loser.

This Week’s Moves

Dow (DOW): Profit-Taking

It was time for even more profit-taking in Dow (DOW) when it started to make a run for its 2023 highs with a sale that went through at $57.73 on Monday. The small sale reduced my per-share cost -1.29% from $30.90 to $30.50.

From here, my next sell target is $60.23, below the next level of resistance, and my next buy target is $44.12, around a key level of past resistance and quite a bit above DOW’s 2022 lows at $42.91.

DOW closed the week at $58.97, up +2.15% from where I took profits Monday.

Take Two Interactive (TTWO): Profit-Taking

Take Two Interactive (TTWO) rallied to a key point of resistance on Monday, triggering my next sell order which filled at $109.73. The sale locked in +19.64% in gains selling shares I bought for $91.72 on November 8, 2022, and lowered my per-share cost -13.74% from $77.61 to $66.95.

From here, my next sell target is much higher than here but below TTWO’s all-time highs at $207.60, and my next buy target is $90.01, right above TTWO’s 2022 low at $90.00.

TTWO closed the week at $114.31, up +4.18% from where I took profits Monday.
