This is a hundred dollars, and this is how much money you could have turned into if you bought tesla shares in september 2019. 2. 100. That's a lot of profit for doing absolutely nothing.

So today, let's discuss the three biggest reasons why i believe tesla stock is set to really explode in 2022, starting with reason, three and working our way up to number one i'll also be revealing what price i bought back in at after selling. All my shares for a huge profit a couple of months ago, hi guys it's mark, so let's make investing and business interesting so that you can grow your wealth before we dive in i'd like to remind you, i'm not a financial advisor, i'm just sharing my own Thoughts as a successful businessman with 30 plus years of experience, please do your own research before making any financial decisions. Let's kick this off with the news that elon musk has almost sold the 10 of tesla's shares he planned to unload. Until now, tesla stock has been a bit like a sprinter running with a parachute attached to his back as you can imagine, it just wants to explode, but it keeps getting held back.

That drag could have been caused by elon musk selling. His shares elon's a drag man. Oh dad, please just stop. Now it's a bit like someone's come along and cut some of those parachute strings and the stock is more free to run wild.

I'm extremely excited to see what happens next now on the surface. Elon selling his shares in the first place might seem a little bit strange, but when you actually look into it, things become a lot clearer. Elon is reported to owe a 15 billion dollar tax bill. Yes, i said billions as he takes no salary from tesla.

It makes sense that he would have to sell tesla stock to cover this. Now, when elon must sell stock, it's not just him selling that can cause a downward trend. It's actually the algorithms. He triggers a lot of trading is done by these huge computer systems and when big positions are sold, it means that they can react violently.

This is only magnified by people, panic selling from the news that the ceo is selling out. I mean if you'd invested in one of my companies and all of a sudden i started selling my stock you'd, probably be a bit concerned and consider getting out yourself. This, understandably, might cause a train reaction, causing the stop price to drop. He did try to avoid some of this backlash by handing over the choice whether to sell his shares or not to a twitter poll, but i honestly think he knew exactly what people were going to say as he played on the whole billionaire tax angle.

At the time i mean who wouldn't want a billionaire to pay more tax, however, even though he did try and minimise the effect of selling his stock, afterwards, tesla did dip below a one trillion dollar market cap for a little while but mark. How does this actually affect me? Well, everything i just mentioned was a bit of a panic at the time, but elon musk has sold nearly 14 billion dollars in tesla stock now and has said, he's nearly finished selling. This is fantastic news for all investors, as it drives negative media attention away from tesla. This is important as everyday investors are highly affected by herd mentality and tend to follow what everyone else is doing.

Therefore, by having less negative news surrounding tesla, it should fill people with confidence to buy back and not to sell. Honestly, since elon is nearing the end of his 10 target, it seems to be nothing but go. Go go for tesla and everybody seems just as excited as me for tesla's future, which is just what the share price needs to explode. I believe this is the start of an amazing year for tesla.

I know many people think they're too late and they've missed the boat. But i couldn't disagree more by the way, if you're in the usa and you're just getting into investing and want to pick up a free stock worth all the way up to a thousand dollars from public.com. When you fund your account with as little as one dollar, then i'll leave the link in the description below tesla have absolutely smashed their end of year, targets and they're, showing no signs of slowing down. This news had an absolutely insane impact on the stock.

I was just sat on my phone watching it go up and up and up, which is always a fun thing to do. This is important as the more targets they meet or even exceed the more. The stock price will react in this way and make investors some nice profits. Tesla are leading the way when it comes to electric vehicles and if there's one thing, i've noticed throughout 2021 is there's a lot more tesla's on the road.

I can't even grab a quick mackyds without seeing a tesla anymore, it's crazy. So let's talk about exactly what targets they've smashed and why? I think this is going to keep happening in the future. Luckily, tesla are a public company, so we can dig into a lot of their figures. This is understandable, otherwise people would just be investing blindly.

In 2019, tesla sold a total of 367 500 vehicles in 2020 they delivered 499 550 vehicles, including my one and as 2021 came to a close companies have been releasing their fourth quarter. Earnings reports and other information to investors and tesla's report was absolutely staggering. I mean my dentures nearly fell out when i read the figures. In the last quarter of 2021 alone, tesla delivered a total of 308 000 vehicles just to put that into perspective wall street experts were expecting a total of 266 000 vehicles.

So this is a considerable achievement which left the 2021 final delivery figures at a staggering 936 170 vehicles. Now that's not a home run. I don't know what is. This is extremely promising for tesla as companies all around the globe have been struggling with supply chain issues.

Shipping times and staff shortages so to overcome all of these obstacles, and not only please investors but absolutely smash expectations out of the park. I have to say i take my hat off to you elon, but mark what if this is just a one-off. How will this affect tesla in the future? Well, i believe that many people aren't taking into account a secret weapon that tesla is waiting to deploy three words: dormant gigger factories. This is the main reason why i don't think tesla are going to stop exceeding expectations anytime soon, they've never had much of an issue with demand.

It's been more of a struggle producing enough cars to meet that demand. Put simply more people want teslas than they can make, however, that might be starting to change as they have two new gigafactories ready to ramp up production. These are in austin, texas and berlin, germany. They are also planning a 188 million dollar extension to their shanghai factory.

Just look at the size of the current gigafactory in shanghai compared to berlin and even texas. Tesla are really stepping things up when these are operating at full capacity, they should be able to produce as many vehicles as the biggest car manufacturers. The exciting thing about the berlin factory is this means europe won't have to receive cars shipped in from other continents. This means eu countries will avoid some of the import duties and therefore tesla can increase their margins.

We haven't even mentioned the 381 acres of land. Tesla has bought next to its austin texas factory. Honestly, it feels like texas is going to become like disneyland for teslas at some point. Ultimately, more cars being produced will mean that their supercharger revenues will grow as well as their subscription revenue from every car.

At the same time as addressing the pickup market, which is one of the fastest growing segments over the last decade, with the new cybertruck vehicle model, the beauty of all this is they don't even need any more factories to make this a reality. However, new factories will probably be announced in 2022, which will continue the growth in the future just think all it took was for tesla to exceed expectations and within moments of the market. Opening tesla stock was nearly 10 up and closed at just over 13.5 percent. This is a lot like when hertz announced that we're going to buy a hundred thousand tesla model threes, causing tesla stock to jump 13.

Tesla has also proven they aren't scared of dabbling in bitcoin and has actually made more profit from that than all of its car sales combined talking about crypto, if you want to pick up ten dollars worth of free bitcoin from coinbase, when you open up an account I'll leave the links in the description below tesla's rumored. Future stock split is actually really exciting. Their last stock split was announced on august 11 2020 and actually happened on august. The 31st within that time period the stock increased by over 80 percent.

It was absolutely insane now here's where it gets interesting. When elon was asked about stock split a few months ago. He replied with not yet, which implies it's on the cards for the future. There is even a theory going around that elon musk is hiding clues in his tweets as to the exact date of the future split recently i was watching meet kevin break down his tweets, and i was really intrigued.

This is elon musk's tweeting, so it could be mad enough to be true. That's for sure. The main reason companies choose to split their shares is so that they can lower the trading price of their stock to a range that seems more comfortable to most investors and ultimately increasing their shares appeal. However, now we have fractional shares.

People are able to invest as little or as much as they like, so the stock price isn't the big barrier. It once was think of it like having a nice big chocolate cake and someone came in and sliced it into five pieces. You'd still have the same amount of cake, but it would be easier to eat as the slices would be smaller. So therefore, a stock split shouldn't actually affect the price of the stock.

It just multiplies everything by five. However, in the past, this process has caused a lot of hype. I mean just imagine: a group of school kids came rushing in wanting to buy a slice of your cake, you'd probably be able to sell all the slices for more than the original price, as the demand would be so high. My point here is a stock split.

Is often seen as a rally point creating lots of excitement around the stock and retail investors begin to pile in. This is great news for people who have invested in the stock and already have the cake before it gets sliced up. So if a stock split is announced and it looks pretty likely in 2022 - then i expect to see a real pump in the stock price as people pile in upon the news. It's almost like it's seen as some sort of event and if you're, not there, you're, just not called so i'll, definitely be there because i'm the coolest boomer going.

Oh dad, please just stop. Leave it out! Son! I'm cool! I don't know about that. Tesla having a stock split could also be a good thing for the long term as it will make. The stock seem cheaper and more accessible to less experienced investors, which should help newbie investors invest into tesla with confidence.

I'm not going to dive deep into the theories about elon's secret twitter clues as it's just speculation and not factually proven i'll. Just let you decode those hidden messages yourself, but if you find something let me know. Personally, a few months ago i was looking at my portfolio and the profit from tesla was absolutely mind-boggling. I always buy and hold long term, but when i saw the numbers so far in the green, i just couldn't help but sell an average price of 1 149 and make a video all about it.

So i feel this is the perfect opportunity to address a few of your comments, clear some details up and reveal what price i bought my shares back at mark. I'd really like to ask: how do you go about paying taxes when you liquidate your stocks? Well, this was something i didn't actually mention in my video, but all the tesla stock i sold was held inside of stocks and shares isa. This is a lot like a roth ira in the usa. So therefore i didn't have to pay any tax on my profits.

Great success you sold tesla and brought rivian, and you know riven, is valued more than gm and ford right. I admit that i didn't make this very clear in the video, but i didn't sell tesla to buy riven. I sold tesla for all the reasons discussed in that video and i put a very small slice of the profit into rivian gradually to avoid the ipo hype. To this day, my position in riving is not even two percent of what i'd invested in tesla.

I just wanted some skin in the game and to track the stock. I held most of my profits in cash within the isa and bought back aggressively when tesla stock hit around 900. As i knew it was an absolute bargain. My average buy-back price is currently 924 dollars and i'm now just looking to hold it long-term, i'm going to leave the next video right up there, but don't click on it just yet make sure to subscribe.

If you want to grow your wealth, okay, i'll see you over there.
