Semiconductor venture and software upgrades drive strategy shift at Tesla

Tesla has announced plans to build a major semiconductor fabrication facility called Terafab in Austin, Texas, in partnership with SpaceX, to secure advanced AI chip supplies for its vehicles, robotics, and data center projects. The company has also filed site plans in Travis County for a significant expansion at Giga Texas, which includes the Terafab North Campus and an ecological park. Additionally, a new software update is rolling out to more vehicles, introducing features such as HOV lane routing, Autopilot renaming, and Dog Mode Live ahead of the Q1 delivery report.

Intraday bullish reversal as daily bearish structure faces oversold signals

TSLA’s price action remains under pressure, trading below the SMA-20, SMA-50, and SMA-200, while the Ichimoku Kijun level ($392.45) provides immediate support. Momentum indicators are mixed: on the daily (D1) timeframe, MACD and ADX show bearish conditions, but intraday movement is bullish with the price rebounding to near today’s high ($396.03). RSI stands at 41.21 (sell), CCI at -117 (oversold), and BBP at -2.26 (oversold), all reflecting recent selling pressure. However, Stoch RSI is neutral and HMA suggests a buy, while an improving AO and intraday strength highlight a divergence between bearish daily signals and current positive momentum.

Consolidation likely as oversold state offsets weak weekly outlook

For the coming week, TSLA is expected to trade within a volatility band between $386.00 and $397.00, reflecting a lack of clear directional bias as longer-term technical indicators point to a consolidating trend. The probability of a price increase remains low (less than 20%), given mostly bearish or neutral weekly signals, while only the MA-50 (W1) remains bullish. Baseline expectations see TSLA holding within this corridor as oversold conditions balance out with recent momentum. A close above $397.00 would confirm renewed upside, while any move below $386.00 could lead to further declines in line with prevailing trends.

Viktoras Karapetjanc, analyst at Traders Union, sees Tesla maintaining a solid innovation trajectory with its announced Terafab chip facility and Giga Texas expansion. He believes recent news is boosting sentiment, even as technical signals remain mostly bearish. Support at $392.45 and intraday rebound suggest bulls are trying to regain footing. However, the weekly setup points toward more consolidation between $386.00 and $397.00. "Should TSLA close above $397.00, I expect upside momentum to accelerate backed by Tesla’s ongoing strategic developments."

Earlier, analysts noted that Tesla was experiencing continued selling pressure despite glimpses of positive momentum from strategic initiatives and improving sales. The current analysis reaffirms this cautious stance, with oversold conditions now counterbalanced by intraday strength, making a sustained move above $397.00 the key signal for any potential upside breakout.
