What happened

Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA) stock fell as much as 5.8% on Monday after a Goldman Sachs analyst downgraded the stock to a sell rating. Shares are trading about 5.1% lower at the time of this writing.

So what

Goldman Sachs analyst David Tamberrino changed the stock’s rating from a hold to a sell, dropping the firm’s price target from $190 to $185, representing about 24% downside from Tesla’s $244 price at the time of this writing. Following Tesla CEO Elon Musk’s recent comments about the company likely needing to raise capital ahead of its Model 3 launch later this year, Tamberrino voiced concerns about the Model 3 timeline.

“We expect to see pressure on shares as we progress through the year, as cash burn intensifies and the ramp of Model 3 volumes proves to be slower and flatter than assumed in guidance/consensus,” Tamberrino said in a note to investors on Monday, according to CNBC.

    Quelstar is essentially a mirror image of Pixelworks. That is, it’s not just the bearish undertow we want to tap into here. It’s the failure of QBAK to follow-through on today’s effort to break above the 100-day moving average line with today’s early effort. The market dared the bulls to play their hand, and as it turns out, they were bluffing. The sheer scope of the reversal bar in the meantime today confirms the downtrend.
