Moreover, recent high-profile stock splits have failed to give a meaningful boost to other giants including Alphabet and Amazon this year.įor Tesla, this will be the second share-split in less than two years. Most of the risks that weighed on the company earlier this year still linger, with supply chain disruptions far from sorted, tensions between the US and China rising, and founder billionaire Elon Musk involved in a potentially lengthy and costly legal dispute with Twitter.

Tesla’s recent rebound – it posted a 32 per cent gain in July for its best month since October – comes on the back of resilient second-quarter results and a bit of a lift from the climate change bill from the Biden administration, which aims to boost the use of clean energy through a series of tax incentives. “Tesla’s stock split timing looks impeccable,” Roth Capital Partners analyst Craig Irwin said, noting the shareholder vote is coming at a time when the “market seems to be heading in the right direction”. The stock has been on an upswing over the past month, rising 37 per cent since the end of June as of Thursday’s close. Tesla rose 0.3 per cent in after hours trading to $US928.55 as of 6.34pm in New York. The four-month lag between announcement and vote is proving to be beneficial: A rally in growth stocks has brought the Nasdaq 100 Index up nearly 20 per cent from a June low, with Tesla outperforming both the tech-heavy index and the broad S&P 500 Index with a gain of nearly 50 per cent from a late-May low.
The stock rallied near one-third in July after faltering in the first half. Tesla had first announced its plan on March 28 via a tweet. The split will bring Tesla’s shares down to the $US300 range ($431), but the Austin, Texas based-company did not immediately specify as of when it will take effect. Tesla shareholders approved a three-for-one stock split on Thursday (Friday AEST) as the electric-vehicle maker seeks to attract an even larger number of retail investors amid a furious rally since late May.
