It's been quite the turbulent past month for shares of EV titan Tesla ( NASDAQ:TSLA), which fell back to around $400 per share after running into a ceiling of resistance at just shy of $470.

AppLovin stock is up 85% in 2025. However, the stock fell 14% on Monday and shares fell 3% in premarket trading on Tuesday before reversing course - ending the day up 7.6%. The recovery - 6.6% of ApplLovin's stock is sold short - may have been due to reports from Citigroup and Oppenheimer which reiterated their buy recommendations and suggested the market overreacted to the investigation, noted MarketBeat.
