The Tesla melt up
On June 26 (here), we outlined the short term bullish Tesla logic (credit to MS and GS). The stock has squeezed aggressively since then. The big negative trend line comes in around these levels, but note we are trading above the 200 day for the first time a while, as well as the fact we could be seeing the 50 day cross the 100 day.
