Thinking back to our supply\/demand curves, an increase in supply should cause a decrease in price.\u00a0 Though the stock has since fallen modestly, the initial reaction in pre-market trading was another sharp rise in TSLA.\u00a0 The psychology behind this stock at the moment is simply that all news is good news.\u00a0 <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the short-term, and sometimes the longer-term, psychology can prevail over economics.\u00a0 Over time the laws of economics usually prevail.\u00a0 But remember, these laws can often be broken with impunity, since only the market can enforce economic rules.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We have witnessed the remarkable rally in Tesla&#8217;s stock throughout most of its existence and are especially amazed by its recent performance.
