TSLA vs Ford - Market Cap Shifts may reflect Investor SentimentOn this weekly chart I have set up the running ratio of shares of TSLA to shares of Ford over
a time span dating back to pre-covid times. Added to the chart are a set of EMAs as well
as zero-lag MACD and Directional Index indicators. TLSA dominated early and the ratio steadily
increased. Given a choice between TSLA and F the longterm investor would buy the former.
However, at the beginning of 2021, things changed as can be seen on the chart and the
indicators. At this point, the ratio is over and under the weekly EMA200 and trending down.
Now an investor might liquidate the TSLA shares and buy Ford instead. Hard to say what the
the longer-term picture might be. TSLA is selling a hypergrowth narrative that may not come
to fruition. Ford is slowly steadily hanging in there with its broad product line including the
F-150 both Classic and Lightning. Time will tell........ So is it TSLA long or short ?
