My purchases were back in 2022: I bought 33% of my shares at $220, bought 17% more when it fell to $170, bought 17% more when it fell to $120, and then bought another 33% on the way back up, at $170.
In Nov 2024, when it was rising super fast, I did trim 25% at $320, and then bought it back in March 2025 at $240, so that was a bit of "timing", however my 50% returns in the last year exclude that... the stock is up from about $295 a year ago to $423 today, which is 44%.
My TSLA holdings have been growing at about 50% annualized in the last year or so. Phenomenal. I would be over the moon with annualized 15% growth in general. People seem to have unrealistic expectations / lack appropriate patience. Investing is not a get-rich-quick scheme.
Tesla is 50% of my portfolio.
I still believe in Elon.
I still believe in robotaxis.
I still believe in Optimus.
But I can’t lie…
It’s getting old watching a lot of tech stocks rip higher while Tesla goes nowhere.
The hardest part?
I don’t want to sell.
But after waiting this long, it would absolutely kill me if I kept holding and everything else outperformed.
It would also kill me if I sold and Tesla doubled.
Anyone else stuck in this spot?
