The future is certainly bright for Tesla and this sentiment continues to be reflected in the company\u2019s stock which has appreciated roughly 28% since the start of 2019 and gained almost 110% over the past three months! It seems there is no stopping this rally with more good news bound to push shares to fresh all-time highs.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">The technical picture is in a favour of bulls with the path of least resistance pointing north. A daily close above $540 should encourage an incline towards $550. If prices are unable to keep above $540, a technical correction towards $500 could be on the cards before prices attempt to push higher.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.forextime.com\/images\/maa\/tsladaily_3.png\" alt=\"\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>Bank of America profits drop on lower interest rates\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Bank of America shares edged higher on Wednesday after the bank reported fourth-quarter profits that beat forecasts but revenues fell short of expectations.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">The United States second-biggest lender after <a href=\"https:\/\/www.forextime.com\/eu\/market-analysis\/earnings-season-kicks-jp-morgan-smashing-estimates\">JPMorgan Chase<\/a> experienced a 1.7% fall in revenue to $22.3 billion while net income beat analyst estimates of $6.3 billion by hitting $7 billion during the final quarter of 2019. However, this still represented a 4.1% drop in profits when compared with last year.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Focusing on the company\u2019s shares, prices are trading around $34.58 as of writing. A breakdown below $34.25 should encourage a move lower towards $33.75.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.forextime.com\/images\/maa\/bacdaily.png\" alt=\"\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>Amazon stocks gearing up for a rebound?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Amazon shares have the potential to rebound after reporting a \u201crecord-breaking\u201d 2019 holiday season- defined in the sales world as of November 1 to December 24.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Optimism on US-China trade and global growth may support buying interest towards the stock.
