Tesla Leads Premarket Gains as Retail Investors Continue Buying

Introduction

Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA) is leading premarket gains among the Magnificent Seven stocks as retail investors keep pouring billions into the stock. Meanwhile, the broader U.S. market is rising on optimism over a more measured approach to tariffs under President Donald Trump.


Key Highlights

1. Tesla's Retail Investor Surge

  • Tesla shares have seen 13 consecutive sessions of net buying by retail investors.

  • $8 billion has been injected into the stock, according to JPMorgan Chase data.

  • This strong retail momentum is driving Tesla's premarket surge on Monday.

  • Alphabet (NASDAQ:GOOGL): +1.2%

  • Microsoft (NASDAQ:MSFT): +1.1%
