'Big Short' Trader Danny Moses Gives Up On Shorting Tesla, Says It Is 'Very Difficult To Short A Name That Is Not Trading On Fundamentals'
'Big Short' Trader Danny Moses Gives Up On Shorting Tesla, Says It Is 'Very Difficult To Short A Name That Is Not Trading On Fundamentals'
After the quarter's performance dropped, the company made promises of autonomous driving and robotaxis and company CEO Moses Ventures founder and "Big Short" fame trader Danny Moses said on Tuesday that he does not have a short position in Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:TSLA) anymore.
摩西投資創始人、因《大空頭》而聞名的交易員丹尼·摩西在週二表示，他不再持有特斯拉公司（納斯達克：TSLA）的空頭頭寸。
What Happened: Moses has been short on Tesla at various times since Nov. 2016 when Tesla bought SolarCity, which he deemed to be an "awful deal."
發生了什麼：摩西自2016年11月以來在特斯拉上多次開空，當時特斯拉收購了SolarCity，他認爲這是一個「糟糕的交易」。
However, in the first quarter of this year, Tesla started to trade on fundamentals after a long time, Moses said.
然而，摩西表示，在今年第一季度，特斯拉在很長一段時間後開始按照基本面進行交易。
After the quarter's performance dropped, the company made promises of autonomous driving and robotaxis and company CEO Elon Musk started developing a relationship with President-elect Donald Trump, Moses noted in an appearance on CNBC.
在季度業績下降後，公司承諾了自動駕駛和機器人出租車，並且公司首席執行官埃隆·馬斯克開始與當選總統特朗普建立關係，摩西在接受CNBC採訪時指出。
"When the story moves from non-fundamentals to technicals... that's when I leave the story," Moses said.
摩西表示：「當故事從非基本面轉移到技術面時……我就會離開這個故事。」
"It's very difficult to short a name that is not trading on fundamentals. It's also hard to go long a name when it's all on promises."
摩西稱：「空頭一隻不按基本面交易的股票非常困難。而且在完全依賴承諾的情況下開多也很困難。」
Moses added that Musk has "promised things in the past that never came to fruition" and now he's talking about cutting $2 trillion from the federal budget. "You're not gonna be able to do that."
摩西補充說，馬斯克過去「承諾過的事情從未實現」，而現在他在談論削減2萬億美元的聯邦預算。「你無法做到這一點。」
Why It Matters: Tesla shares closed down 1.6% at $351.42 on Tuesday. The stock is up by nearly 41% year-to-date, particularly after the stock rallied following Trump's victory in the Presidential elections.
爲什麼這很重要：週二，特斯拉股價下跌1.6%，收於351.42美元。該股票年初至今上漲近41%，尤其是在特朗普在總統選舉中獲勝後，股價上漲。
Overall, analysts have a consensus rating of "Buy" on Tesla stock, with the highest price target being $411.
總體來看，分析師對特斯拉股票的共識評級爲"買入"，最高價格目標爲411美元。
Earlier this week, Roth MKM analyst Craig Irwin raised Tesla's price target by 347% from $85 to $380 and upgraded the rating to a "buy" from "neutral."
本週早些時候，Roth MKM分析師Craig Irwin將特斯拉的價格目標從85美元上調347%至380美元，並將評級從"中立"上調至"買入"。
A long-time Tesla bear, Irwin turned bullish on Tesla on Monday noting the benefits that Tesla might reap out of its CEO's new association and support for Trump.
長期以來一直看空特斯拉的Irwin在週一轉爲看好特斯拉，指出特斯拉可能會從其首席執行官的新關係和對特朗普的支持中獲益。
