Share value in Tesla is up more than nine percent on the day. As of writing, a single share is trading hands for $1,153.30. Tesla made big moves in 2021 and is poised to continue that trend this year. In October, the company said it was moving its headquarters from California to Austin, Texas. The EV maker’s pickup truck, the Cybertruck, is expected to enter production by the end of the year and will pave the way for the second-gen Roadster sometime in 2023.
