#: Tesla stock wards off bear market with boost from UBS

Tesla was some $30 away from a bear market on Monday

Tesla Inc. stock on Tuesday snapped a four-day losing streak that took it very near a bear market, after UBS analysts slapped a $1,000 price target on the stock and called the electric-vehicle maker the EV market’s “undisputed leader.”

Tesla shares
TSLA,
+4.24%
traded up as much as 4.8% at $1,057.67 on Tuesday, before paring gains to close up 4.2% at $1,051.75, shaking off weakness that took it to a close of $1,009.01 on Monday.

Monday’s close was roughly $25 away from putting the stock into a bear market, as defined by ending at least 20% down from a record high. Tesla hit a record close of $1,229.91 on Nov. 4.

A close at or below $983.92 would make the bear market “official.” The stock hit an intraday low of $950.50 on Monday, before bouncing to close above that threshold. On Nov. 15, it touched an intraday low of $978.60 before bouncing to close at $1,013.39.
