On August 14, Direxion Daily TSLA Bull 2X Shares surged 8.26% in regular trading, trading at $8.72/share, with turnover of $845 million. The rally was driven by a cluster of positive developments surrounding Tesla.
On the news front, Tesla announced plans to invest $10.1 billion in a vertically integrated solar manufacturing facility called Crystal Sun in Texas, accelerating its 200GW photovoltaic capacity roadmap. Additionally, SpaceX and Tesla jointly confirmed the Terafab chip factory in Texas with a first-phase investment of $16.8 billion and a total potential investment of up to $119 billion. Meanwhile, the Swedish Metal Workers Union announced it would suspend industrial action against Tesla starting August 19, signaling an easing of labor tensions in the Nordic region.
As a 2x leveraged product tracking Tesla daily returns, the fund amplified the underlying stock's gains from these converging catalysts spanning energy, semiconductors, and labor relations.
