The Optimus robot is the humanoid robot under development by Tesla and could multiply the company's valuation, according to Musk.
Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA) stock has been a truly incredible thing to watch, at least over the course of the past few weeks.
Although Donald Trump has opposed policies that favor electric cars, if he becomes president he could ease regulatory scrutiny of Tesla or protect lucrative credits and subsidies.
Tesla, Inc.'s stock surged over 25% post-3Q FY2024 earnings, driven by early signs of inflections in margins, EPS growth, and delivery growth. Tesla's Q3 revenue fell short of consensus expectations, driven by disappointing deliveries, despite achieving its second-highest regulatory credit revenue. The company achieved 105% QoQ in FCF in 3Q despite a significant increase in capex.
Electric vehicles are likely at or entering the early acceleration phase of the S-curve, which means that EV adoption can accelerate from here. Price parity with ICE vehicles is expected to be reached by 2027, and robotaxis will provide low-cost-per-mile transportation and generate revenue for owners. This will accelerate the transition to EVs. Tesla may face regulatory issues regarding its robotaxi ambitions. However, Google's Waymo is paving the regulatory path for Tesla, which can make things a bit easier.
Q3 saw Tesla report sequential growth for both production and deliveries after a weak Q1, where deliveries dropped below 400,000 for the first time since late 2022. CEO Elon Musk stated that the automaker is shooting for “20% to 30% vehicle growth next year,” or roughly at least 2.1 million vehicles assuming TSLA ends 2024 at around 1.75 million. From Q4 2023 to Q2 2024, ASPs were relatively unchanged while production costs rose 3.7%, denting both automotive margins and impacting profitability.
Tesla (TSLA) has received quite a bit of attention from Zacks.com users lately. Therefore, it is wise to be aware of the facts that can impact the stock's prospects.
Tesla, Inc.'s stock initially plunged post-robotaxi event, but rebounded strongly due to impressive Q3 earnings and improved margins, gaining 26.2% over two sessions. Q3 highlights: Adjusted EPS of $0.72 beat estimates by 24.14%, net income rose 17.3%, and gross profit surged 20% annually. Despite high forward valuation metrics, Tesla's recent price movements suggest market confidence, breaking long-term downtrend lines and establishing higher lows since January 2023.
Major insider stock sales, particularly those executed near highs not seen in some time, tend to unnerve investors, though they are generally pre-planned to ensure compliance with regulatory rules and guidelines and mostly not reflective of short-term dynamics or expectations.
