Tesla Stock TSLA Lags NDX as Robotaxi Rivals Scale 750K Weekly Rides; NVIDIA NVDA Opens Autonomy Stack — 4 Catalysts Gary Black Highlights
According to @garyblack00, TSLA has underperformed with roughly -12% year to date versus NDX at about -2%, extending its 2025 underperformance when TSLA was about +11% versus NDX around +20% (source: @garyblack00 on X). He states the bull case that only Tesla can deliver generalized unsupervised autonomy is breaking down as Alphabet (GOOG), Baidu (BIDU), WeRide (WRD), Pony.ai (PONY), and Amazon (AMZN) are already completing approximately 750K paid unsupervised robotaxi rides per week without safety monitors (source: @garyblack00 on X). He adds that NVIDIA (NVDA) will make its AI chips and autonomy software stack available to other OEMs starting in 1H 2026, effectively democratizing unsupervised autonomy (source: @garyblack00 on X). To reverse TSLA’s trend, he outlines four catalysts: a broad FSD-led brand campaign to drive volumes and share; removing safety monitors from Tesla robotaxis to validate unsupervised capability; launching a conventional pickup to capture underpenetrated TAM and boost earnings; and CEO share purchases to signal confidence (source: @garyblack00 on X).

Altcoin DCA Strategy: @CryptoMichNL Adds $10,000 to Portfolio, Buys OP, TAO, SEI, W as BTC (BTC) Shows Capitulation Signals
According to @CryptoMichNL, he added $10,000 to his personal altcoin portfolio, splitting the allocation across OP, TAO, SEI, and W as part of an ongoing DCA plan. According to @CryptoMichNL, the plan is to keep adding roughly $10,000 monthly over the next 2–3 months depending on strength or further drawdowns, while acknowledging the personal portfolio is down about 75–80%. According to @CryptoMichNL, the rationale includes signals that Bitcoin priced in gold is at historically low levels, weekly and biweekly RSI nearing prior bear-market lows, the production cost sitting above price, and a shifting macro backdrop with a progressive Fed chair, a turning business cycle, potential avoidance of shutdowns, and the Clarity Act coming into play. According to @CryptoMichNL, the near-term game plan is to hold rather than actively trade, adjusting only if one position materially outruns the others. According to @CryptoMichNL, this higher-risk personal approach differs from the @MNFund_ and VC portfolios, with the fund said to have outperformed Bitcoin by about 35% since its July 1, 2025 inception. According to @CryptoMichNL, this is not financial advice and DCA is his preferred strategy for those with suitable risk tolerance. (Source) More from Michaël van de Poppe 02-05-2026 14:18 |
