Key Points
Strong Tower Advisory Services trimmed its Tesla stake by 9.1% in Q4, selling 3,362 shares and leaving it with 33,671 shares valued at about $15.14 million (Tesla is ~2.7% of the firm's assets and its 11th-largest holding).
Significant insider selling has occurred recently — Director Kathleen Wilson‑Thompson sold 25,809 shares (~$9.27M) and CFO Vaibhav Taneja sold 2,264 shares, with insiders disposing of 53,804 shares (~$20.9M) in the past 90 days while still owning 19.9% of the company.
Outlook is mixed: European regulatory wins and a Germany registration surge offer upside, but a Q1 delivery miss, weak China retail sales and rising analyst skepticism weigh on sentiment; analysts’ consensus is a "Hold" with an average price target near $400 and Q1 earnings (Apr 22) the next major catalyst.
