Tesla Soars 12% in Rare Rally – Short Squeeze or Fundamental Rebound?
TradingKey - Tesla (TSLA) surged nearly 12% amid a broad market rally, but can the momentum last?
On Monday, U.S. stocks rallied across the board, with all three major indices gaining over 1%. Tech giants led the charge: Nvidia (NVDA), Amazon (AMZN), and Meta each rose more than 3%, while Tesla(TSLA) outperformed with a staggering 12% jump.

The rally was largely fueled by shifting U.S. tariff policies. Former President Donald Trump signaled a more targeted approach to "reciprocal tariffs" scheduled for April 2, hinting at possible tariff reductions for multiple countries. This helped ease market fears that intensifying trade wars could exacerbate inflation and stall economic growth.
Additionally, the FBI announced the formation of a special task force to investigate threats against Tesla, following a series of reported attacks. CEO Elon Musk's political alignment with Trump has sparked backlash, raising concerns over Tesla's sales.
Tariff uncertainties and Musk-related controversies have weighed heavily on Tesla's stock this year. If these issues stabilize, the company's fundamentals could strengthen, supporting continued gains. Otherwise, the current rebound may prove to be short-lived.
