Isn't Tesla Stock Highly Undervalued? (2020)
- tgsovlerkhgsel 5y agoFor context: When this post was written (2020-05-18), TSLA was at ~$165 per share. Right now, it is at $1028 after yet another massive jump (+13% today, [1]). This means that Tesla has reached the market cap of $1B that the article gave them a 50% chance of reaching by 2027. That could also mean that (if you consider this analysis to be accurate) it has stopped being undervalued. Personally, I agree about the lead in EV production. Everyone else is playing catch-up, although the other manufacturers do have more experience with building cars (just not EVs). Tesla also has a unique approach with their vertical integration that could be deciding (for good or bad). I have very little confidence in their autonomous driving capabilities. Can someone say more about their battery tech and battery manufacturing? Do they have any unique/ahead-of-competitors capabilities when compared to battery (not car) manufacturers? [1] Edit to add, the reason is likely a Hertz deal https://www.teslarati.com/tesla-tsla-shares-jump-hertz-4-3-billion-model-3-order-announcement/ https://www.teslarati.com/tesla-tsla-shares-jump-hertz-4-3-b... - I had mostly given up on searching for explanations for stock rises because it tends to bring up algorithmically generated clueless speculative drivel, but this was big enough to have an actual explanation.
