Tesla (TSLA) Hopes to 'Supercharge' Shares Again Later This Week

Tesla Motors (Nasdaq: TSLA) is up again Monday as sentiment behind the name continues to ramp.

Over the weekend, CEO Elon Musk posted a few messages to his official Twitter account. Submitted on May 11th were the following posts:

• "Improving service and honing manufacturing efficiency are the biggest short term challenges. Not sales constrained."
  
  
• "Hold down voice button & say "Play Amish Paradise by Weird Al Yankovic". Model S can play almost any song via Internet."

Later this week, Tesla is expected to unveil more details of its Supercharger program, which might be what the first comment relates to. Many have said that a more-robust battery pack and/or charger are the next biggest challenges for Tesla.

An announcement this week would put Tesla in the driver seat for grabbing the most investor attention possible over the last month or two. In April, the company announced a new financing plan (which it modified in May) and also announced its goal of providing the best customer service network possible.

Tesla stock is up 6.2 percent Monday morning.
