Tesla stock (TSLA) continues to show strong momentum, with its price rising over the weekend into Monday’s trading session. After a nearly 13% gain last week, TSLA is eying stock price levels it hasn’t seen in nearly four years. Shares angled 2.4% higher to 398.48 during trading on Monday, hitting 404.80 early. Tesla stock last touched 400 in January 2022, and it is looking to recapture that price again.
Elon Musk’s EV developer hit an all-time high of 414.50 on November 4, 2021. That day it closed at 409.97, but has since yet to reach that price again. Now, the company is riding a hype wave unlike any previous one, especially since November. The stock is on a 55% tear since Donald Trump’s election win last month. A primary reason has been CEO Elon Musk’s connection to Trump and his position ahead of the incoming administration’s Department of Government Efficiency. Now, all eyes are on how the EV developer could perform in the coming year, with several analysts eying ATH levels.

Recently, Bank of America increased the company’s stock price prediction to $400. The target increase was driven primarily by the company’s Optimus robot’s potential impact on its business operations. The Optimus robot is currently being used in Tesla’s energy storage division. Moreover, the company has high hopes for its Robotaxi, which debuted earlier this year. Additionally, the company has set aside $10 billion for investments in things like AI and long-term project development.
