Tesla Stock
Tesla stock rose more than 2% Monday, looking to add to Friday's 3.6% gain. The stock found much-needed support at its long-term 200-day moving average in recent sessions. But Tesla shares remain sharply below their 50-day line and there is no proper entry in sight.
The stock traded as high as 1,243.49 on Nov. 4, but ended Friday about 26% off that 52-week high.
Dow Jones Leaders: Apple, Microsoft
Among Dow Jones stocks, Apple stock dropped 0.3% Friday, testing its 50-day line. Shares are again about 13% past a 153.27 buy point out of a cup-with-handle base, according to IBD MarketSmith chart analysis.
A new base is likely forming, but it is slightly too early for a proper buy point, but a decisive move past Thursday's high of 176.24 could be used as an early entry for aggressive investors. Apple shares rose 0.8% Monday.
Software leader Microsoft rallied 1.6% Friday, recovering a part of Thursday's 3.9% tumble. The top Dow Jones stock continues to build a new base, but is below the 50-day line. Shares edged up 0.2% Monday.
