Tesla’s Troubles — Is it Musk or is it More?

By Elliott Wave International Tesla tumbled 15% on March 10, its biggest single-day drop in over five years. Elliott Wave International's March Global Market Perspective provides this insight: The world's richest man, Elon Musk, is also more vulnerable than most people realize. In March 2023, when a poll by Heatmap News, a website that focuses on climate news, showed that prospective electric-vehicle buyers were less likely to buy a Tesla due to Musk's behavior, the Global Market Perspective argued that his persona is so "attached to a bull market that even small shifts in social mood can damage his public cachet irreparably."

Gold Prices: The calm before a record run

Gold’s three-month implied volatility has declined to its lowest level in over four years. While low volatility is not a short term timing tool, low volatility eventually precedes high volatility. At the same time, total open interest in gold futures has declined to its lowest level since December 2018, as traders are either closing futures contracts or abstaining from opening new ones. The low level of open interest means that investors’ attention is turning away from gold, and the low implied volatility indicates that investors do not expect gold to move much over the course of the next three months. Both are preludes to what we see as a major move forming in gold prices.
