Abstract
The rapid development of new energy vehicles in the past five years has positioned Tesla as a leading company in the industry sustaining high growth rates in the industry. It’s worth noting that during the past few years, Tesla’s stock price has also experienced great fluctuations. Therefore, some investors are concerned that Tesla is no longer a worth investing target while others have strong confidence in its robust growth. This research paper examines Tesla's stock price volatility from 2019-2024 by time series methods including technical and fundamental analysis, identifying the key factors driving this volatility. By analyzing stock data and fiscal reports from online databases, this study aims to provide insights to investors, market analysts, policymakers, academics, and those interested in the electric vehicle industry on the investment opportunities of Tesla.
