Can Tesla Stock Reach $310? Here’s What Piper Sandler Expects

9 months 3 weeks ago
Tesla ( NASDAQ:TSLA) left many investors disappointed last week as hopes for a boost from its robotaxi unveiling failed to materialize. In fact, not only did the stock fail to rise, but it also took a hit, with critics pointing to a lack of substance at the flashy Hollywood-based event. For his part, Piper Sandler analyst Alexander Potter was hoping the unveiling would “yield an excuse to boost estimates.” In this regard, says the analyst, “optimism is fading.” “On the other hand,” Potter goes on to say, “there’s no need for estimate cuts, because we had always assumed that revenue from full self-driving (FSD) software wouldn’t begin ramping until 2027/2028.” So, it’s basically back to square one. And in Tesla’s case, square one means selling cars, and that, says the analyst, might just be a “good thing.” Prior to the hype-fueled robotaxi event, sentiment around Tesla was already not great after investors were left unimpressed with the Q3 delivery haul. Not Potter, however, who expected a lower volume than the 463,000 units the EV leader delivered in the quarter. As such, driven by strong seasonal demand in China and the ongoing ramp of Cybertruck production, Potter is comfortable on his Q4 forecast of 465,586 units. Additionally, Potter highlights the fact that Q4 always represents Tesla’s best delivery quarter, so the usual end-of-year surge should also be forthcoming. Looking forward to next year, the analyst thinks 2025 deliveries will reach ~1.9 million units, amounting to year-over-year growth of around 8%. Fueled by lower interest rates and “greater penetration in new regions,” legacy models (S, 3, X, and Y) will account for about half of the growth. Another “key assumption” for 2025 is that the Cybertruck will notch 100,000 deliveries. Potter is also hopeful that a Model 2 will be unveiled in time to have an impact on the 2025 forecast, although he says it’s uncertain whether that will actually happen.   Bottom line, Potter rates Tesla shares an Overweight (i.e., Buy), while his $310 price target makes room for ~42% gains in the months ahead. (To watch Potter’s track record, click here) Bulls will like that, but the majority of Potter’s colleagues aren’t quite as convinced. Overall, the analyst consensus rates the stock a Hold (i.e. Neutral), based on 16 Holds, 11 Buys and 8 Sells. Meanwhile, given the average target stands at $207.83, the shares are anticipated to shed 5% of their value by this time next year.

Musk’s SpaceX Makes History: Starship Booster Caught Mid-Air in Pivotal Test Flight

9 months 3 weeks ago
In a remarkable feat, Elon Musk‘s space company SpaceX achieved a significant milestone – its first-ever catch of its rocket booster. SpaceX achieved this feat on the fifth test flight of its Starship rocket. This feat is crucial in SpaceX’s mission to create a fully reusable rocket system. How Did SpaceX Achieve This Feat? SpaceX’s starship rocket took off from the company’s Starbase facility near Brownsville, Texas at 8:25 am ET. The rocket’s massive “Super Heavy” booster roared to life and, just under seven minutes after liftoff, returned to the launch site, where it was caught by the tower’s “chopstick” arms. Meanwhile, the upper portion of the Starship rocket separated from the booster, continuing its flight into space. It traveled halfway around the planet before re-entering Earth’s atmosphere and splashing down in the Indian Ocean, successfully concluding the test as planned. It is important to note that no crew was aboard this flight, and SpaceX intends to refine the system over hundreds of missions before it launches with astronauts. Starship is the company’s tallest (397 feet tall) and most powerful rocket ever launched, with 16.7 million pounds of thrust. Why Is Today’s Launch of SpaceX’s Starship Significant? Remarkably, Starship’s four previous test flights have surpassed the milestones achieved by its predecessor. Today’s feat of Starship is vital in terms of space travel, as a reusable rocket system could revolutionize space travel by significantly reducing costs and enabling routine flights of cargo and people beyond Earth. Is Tesla a Buy, Sell, or Hold? When it comes to Musk’s electric vehicle (EV) company Tesla, analysts remain sidelined about TSLA stock, with a Hold consensus rating based on 11 Buys, 16 Holds, and eight Sells. Over the past year, TSLA has slid by more than 10%, and the average TSLA price target of $207.83 implies a downside potential of 4.6% from current levels. See more TSLA analyst ratings
