Tesla: A reflection and a long hard look

Throughout the entire market boom since March, I have not put into any thought with regards to trading Tesla. With every move up, I would think about how this move would be unsustainable as compared to other companies with established businesses and nice trading opportunities. However, I feel that the S&P inclusion creates an opportunity for me to right my wrongs and get a nice swing trade in on Tesla up until the inclusion date. Here are the reasons:

1. While China's EV industry has been booming as of late, Tesla's model Y has been given the green light to sell in China, which might further increase Tesla's market share from 1.3% to maybe in the 2% ranges (rough guesstimate), and undercut China EV firms in an incredibly fragmented industry.

2. Historically, S&P inclusion entails that there will be a a huge buy prior to the inclusion, but prices end up plateauing for a while post-inclusion. This could be the buy-in opportunity for a swing trade.

3. On the matter of plateauing, I still do not think the current valuations support such a high price. Post S&P inclusion, they would have to actually produce outstanding results to continue pushing the stock up. Anything short of that might mean the price will move sideways into nowhere unless there is a catalyst of some sort. This would mean that any post-inclusion trades on TSLA might not yield as outstanding results as have hoped.

3. Funds that track the S&P will have to sell off some of their holdings to make way for Tesla. This would mean a broad minor selloff in some weaker S&P stocks, and strength in TSLA.

TSLA's S&P inclusion date is 21 Dec. While I feel that the current parabolic move is unsustainable, the bearish engulfing candlestick pattern indicates a short reversal, by which I think would be a good chance to enter a position pending market moves within this week.
