Wall Street expects Tesla Inc (NASDAQ:TSLA) to report 60 cents in earnings per share and $24.2 billion in revenues when the electric vehicle company releases second-quarter earnings on Tuesday, July 23, after market hours.
The stock is down 17.87% over the past year; it’s also down 3.73% year-to-date.
Let’s look at what the charts indicate for Tesla stock, and how the stock currently maps against Wall Street estimates.
Chart created using Benzinga Pro
TSLA’s share price stands at $242.45, with mixed signals from various moving averages. The eight-day simple moving average (SMA) at $247.23 generates a bearish signal, while the 20-day SMA at $232.85, the 50-day SMA at $199.56, and the 200-day SMA at $205.49 all indicate bullish signals.
Interesting to note here, that the 50-day SMA can be seen (in chart above) moving upwards towards the downward-sloping 200-day SMA, seemingly heading towards a classic Golden Cross situation — considered a massive bull signal for any stock. A Golden Cross occurs when the 50-day SMA cuts above the 200-day SMA (from below).
A Q2 earnings beat, in such a situation, could certainly provide fuel to the current momentum, leading to the Golden Cross being achieved.
