Hey traders,
A few days ago, Elon dropped something insane…
— Elon Musk (@elonmusk) April 15, 2025
He said they’re sending Tesla’s humanoid robot, Optimus, to Mars. Full-on autonomous robot crew helping build colonies.
First launch hits 2026.
That alone sounds like something ripped from a sci-fi movie.
But what really caught my attention was the plan here on Earth.
Tesla’s gearing up for mass production of Optimus starting in 2025. They’re talking half a million units a year by 2027.
And Elon thinks Optimus could be worth more than Tesla’s car business.
Let that sink in. The guy who built a trillion-dollar EV empire says the robot division could pass it.
I’ve been watching this play out from the market angle.
Most people are chasing Tesla stock.

Makes sense—it’s the obvious move. But the obvious move rarely gives you the best reward.
There’s another angle. Way less crowded. Tied directly to this tech shift, but flying under the radar. That’s where I’m focused right now.
I’ve seen this before—everyone piles into the flashy name, then misses the small players making the real gains. Same thing happened during the EV boom, the AI surge, even the crypto waves.
If this robot rollout goes the way I think it will, the biggest upside won’t come from Tesla.
And if you’re only looking at the headlines, you’ll miss it.
Most traders treat big headlines like a finish line.
“Tesla’s building a humanoid robot? Must mean I should buy Tesla stock.”
But that’s usually where the opportunity ends, not begins. By the time retail traders catch on, the early move’s already gone.
That’s why I look at these headlines differently.
Not as an endgame, but as a signal.
A clue that something big might be setting up underneath the surface.
Let’s zoom out for a second…
If Tesla actually scales Optimus like Elon says—mass production, 500,000 robots a year, full commercial rollout—that’s a total shift in how industries function.
We’re talking manufacturing, logistics, healthcare, retail, even home use. Labor costs drop. Productivity spikes.
Whole sectors start to lean on automation.
But Tesla won’t do all of that alone.
There’s a long list of smaller companies—parts suppliers, software firms, AI training platforms, even robotics startups—that’ll power this movement behind the scenes.
Those are the names I’ve got my eyes on.
Because the truth about people who made real money during the EV boom didn’t just buy Tesla.
They found the charging station stocks, the lithium miners, the chip suppliers.
The ones building the picks and shovels.
That same playbook applies here.
This “robot race” is gonna need custom chips, lightweight materials, advanced sensors, AI algorithms, supply chains optimized for automation—it’s a whole ecosystem.
And in that ecosystem, a few overlooked stocks could quietly 2x, 5x, even 10x over the next few years without ever making a headline.
I’ve already spotted a few setups with that kind of potential.
But I’m not rushing. These plays don’t move on hype; they move on contracts, scaling, and tech adoption.
So I’m stalking them patiently, waiting for the volume and confirmation.
That’s the part most traders skip. They chase the hype, then wonder why they bought the top.
You’ve gotta think in cycles.
- New trend starts building.
- Volume creeps in.
- Institutions start scooping up shares before retail even notices.
That’s where the real entries come.
And when I get those signals is when I move.
Not because Elon tweeted. Not because the media’s buzzing. But because the setup lines up with my process.
So yeah, robots going to Mars might sound crazy… but what matters is the ripple effect right here on Earth.
I don’t care about science fiction.
I care about price action, momentum, and high-conviction setups that give me an edge.
If you’re just watching the big names, you’ll miss the real winners.
But if you’re willing to zoom out, watch the volume, and stay patient—this shift could unlock some massive opportunities in 2025 and beyond.
Trade Smart,
Jack Kellogg
