it’s so so so a major accomplishment. Especially for Chief Executive Officer Elon Musk that will unleash a flood of new demand for Tesla motors. For the electric car maker’s shares have already surged 500% over the past year.
Higher-than-expected second-quarter vehicle deliveries, announced last week, have analysts increasingly confident the company will show a profit in its quarterly report on July 22. That would mark Tesla’s first cumulative four-quarter profit, a key hurdle to be added to the S&P 500.
