Tesla’s stock price is trading close to a seven-week high today as a huge technical breakout in Bitcoin yesterday is starting to prompt traders to take another look at the upside prospects of the electric car maker.
Bitcoin surged above the $64,000 level today and hit a new all-time high after breaking above the $61,800 level yesterday. Optimism towards the Coinbase IPO and Nasdaq listing is causing a massive a major price surge in the cryptocurrency market.
Tesla announced last month that they are going to allow Tesla cars to be purchased in Bitcoins, which could mean that the ongoing breakout in Bitcoin will be attractive for Bitcoin owners, who have amassed huge profits, and could hypothetically spend their Bitcoin profits on Tesla cars.
Another bullish catalyst for Tesla is the fact that the company invested $1.5 billion in Bitcoin earlier this year. Tesla bought Bitcoin at an average price of $37,500, which means that Tesla have already made a profit of nearly $1 billion since it invested in Bitcoin.
Therefore, as Bitcoin continues to rise on the cryptocurrency market it should be extremely bullish for Tesla’s share price. The options market already has many bullish bets stacked at $70,000 and also $80,000 by the month end.
Bitcoin has been in a period of price consolidation over recent weeks, while the so-called “alt season” got underway. Now that Bitcoin is breaking out to the upside again it could be the start if the next major bull run.
The fundamentals for Tesla are also improving, as the global economy starts to come out of lockdown, and consumption should increase in the automobile industry, due to increase job creation, and the need for travel.
