Key Takeaways Tesla shares have gained ground the past two sessions after a five-day losing streak during which the stock lost 18% of its value. Despite the recent pullback, the shares have trended sharply higher since breaking out from an ascending triangle in early November following the U.

The analyst also noted in a CNBC interview that Tesla owners paying the additional $8,000 upgrade for existing vehicles to adopt FSD would result in a big boost in profit margin. That would help provide a return on the huge amount of capital Tesla spends on artificial intelligence (AI) infrastructure to develop FSD.

Despite Tesla publishing a weak deliveries report in early January, TSLA continues trading in the green and analyst keep rating it as 'buy.'
