Tesla stock price has made a recovery, no matter how brief it may be. New light on the company’s production could be a key factor in recent moves for TSLA stock
Tesla Inc (NASDAQ:TSLA) may have had a highly disappointing start to 2019 when it reported shrinking deliveries. Naturally, Tesla stock price dove as well. However, in its latest quarter, the electric car manufacturing generated record-breaking delivery figures. All of a sudden it became a far more attractive proposition for investors.
Key Drivers For Tesla Stock Price
In addition to better delivery data, there are many other factors generating interest on Tesla stock price. It has emerged that Tesla plans to consolidate its position as the leader of the electric car manufacturing industry. The company is ramping up hiring. It is trying to take its production capabilities to higher levels in the coming quarters.

It is important to note that optimism around TSLA stock has been bullish since June. Thus far it has rallied by as much as 35% during the period. The news about the hiring spree from Tesla came after a leaked e-mail. The e-mail mentioned Tesla will hire more workers to ramp up production at its Freemont, California plant.
The push towards higher production started from the record-breaking performance from Tesla in its latest quarter. In addition to that, the presence of the factory in Shanghai will also allow the company to raise production capabilities. It could also help Tesla reach its annual target of 400,00 deliveries.

That being said, other factors like subsidies and geopolitical factors could impact the stock. Investors should be careful about those risks as well.
