Keep in mind that the general outline of EV incentives for an infrastructure plan has been publicly known for weeks. The question is what will pass through Congress.
Tesla delivery
Tesla announces quarterly production and delivery within the first three business days of the following quarter. That could mean a report by Tesla will come out by Monday at the latest, but a report is likely to be released from Thursday through Saturday.

But once you look at the Nasdaq chart, Wednesday’s move isn’t particularly prominent. The biggest volume may come as the Nasdaq index retreated from its intraday high. Also, the composite remains below the 50-day streak and short-term mid-March highs.
The Russell 2000 index rose again above the 50 day line, closing just above this key level. During the day it crossed the 21-day streak before pulling back.

A good first step
The Nasdaq and Small Businesses Index took a good step towards moving from a split stock market rally to a broad uptrend. But it was just a step. Russell 2000 needs to convincingly reclaim the 50 day streak. The Nasdaq has to recover its 50-day highs and the month of March.
The latest crop of buyout and breakout signals, such as the Cleveland-Cliffs and Micron stock, needs to hold out and expand the gains.
