🚗 Tesla Shareholder Meeting: What’s on Deck + How to Trade It

Tesla is hosting its shareholder meeting today (Thursday, Nov 6, 2025) — and this one’s shaping up to be a major event for both the stock and Elon Musk himself.

The spotlight? Musk’s proposed pay package, potentially worth close to $1 trillion if Tesla hits ambitious long-term milestones tied to market valuation, vehicle production, robotics, and AI.

If approved, it would be the largest CEO compensation plan in history, effectively tying Musk’s fortune to Tesla’s ability to scale into autonomous vehicles, robotaxis, and humanoid robots (“Optimus”).


🧠 Why Today Actually Matters

This isn’t just another shareholder meeting.

  • If the package passes: It signals strong investor confidence that Musk remains key to Tesla’s growth as it pivots toward AI and robotics.
  • If it fails: It raises questions about corporate governance and dilution and could pressure shares short-term.

Some large funds, including Norway’s $1.7 trillion sovereign wealth fund, have already said they’ll vote against the plan, calling it excessive. But Musk’s retail base has been vocal in support, and that dynamic could be what moves the stock.


🔍 My Trader View

Now for the setup everyone cares about…how to trade it.

Key levels:

  • 🔺 Resistance: 467
  • 🔻 Support: 420 (daily 50-SMA and a major prior demand zone)

Yesterday’s options flow showed aggressive call buying, hinting that traders are already positioning for upside.

⚡ Bullish setup

If Tesla gets momentum above 467 with volume, I like the 475 calls for a quick day trade. If investors like what they hear, Tesla could ride that energy into Friday, and Fridays have a habit of becoming runner days for a TSLA lotto.

🧊 Bearish setup

If sentiment turns or the vote disappoints, 420 becomes the line in the sand. A clean break below it could trigger a quick pullback, but it’s also where dip buyers may step in, so patience is key.


💬 Final Thoughts

This meeting isn’t just about Musk’s paycheck, it’s about Tesla’s future identity. Is it still a car company, or an AI-driven robotics empire in the making?

Either way, volatility could be coming.
Trade the reaction, not the headline.

If Tesla clears resistance, momentum traders could have a window into the end of the week. But as always size smart and lock in.
