This summary was created by AI, based on 54 opinions in the last 12 months.

Experts remain divided on Tesla Inc. (TSLA), reflecting a mix of optimism and skepticism regarding the company’s future. While Tesla continues to report earnings that beat estimates and shows revenue growth, concerns about declining vehicle deliveries and soaring competition, particularly from Chinese manufacturers, weigh heavily on investor sentiment. The company's lofty valuation, often cited at around 200 times earnings, has led many to question whether the stock is overly speculative as hopes pivot towards future revenues from robotics and autonomous vehicles. Analysts urge caution, advocating for a closer examination of Tesla’s fundamentals and the viability of its ambitious projects given the risks associated with high expectations and market volatility.

BUY
Is one of 7 growth stocks where investors don't care about earnings during this pandemic, so buy them: Its valuation is crazy. Investors stubbornly believe that CEO Musk will grow its high valuation, and that shareholder base won't budge. They won't believe anyone else will build a better e-car.
DON'T BUY
Avoids stocks that trade on emotion and news instead of fundamentals. Retail-driven-story stock. Crazy valuation. No interest in owning.
DON'T BUY
He's a skeptic. Admires Musk, the company, and the product. Priced for perfection. Stock level is crazy. Won't have the predicted 20% of the electric car market by 2025. Cars are a fashion statement, so don't bet that Tesla has a monopoly on those.
COMMENT
Investors hoped Elon Musk would talk about a million-mile battery today, but instead he spoke about a $25,000 car Tesla will release in three years. The market was disappointed and the stock sold off. This is a case of investor expectations. But they missed the significance of a cheap e-car that Musk announced. That said, Tesla has still run up too high and, though worth buying, isn't ready to enter yet.
N/A

Oil Sector and Impact from E-cars. He thinks they will continue to grow over the next little while. TSLA-Q is not the only one. GM, Ford and all the majors are coming out with electric vehicles. Tesla has grabbed the imagination of consumers. He thinks E-cars will be more and more of the auto industry. It is hard to recommend getting out of the oil business just because of E-cars. The oil curve is still in co tango. Hydro carbons are not going away tomorrow.

DON'T BUY
It's twice as expensive as it should be. Subject of extraordinary speculation and trading activity. Traders buy the stock not based on fundamentals, but on momentum and sentiment. Based on psychology, not on economics or finance. When momentum cools, everyone heads for the exits. Remember the cautionary tales of Nortel and JDS Uniphase.

TOP PICK
However, why is there such a vast discrepancy in PE between Facebook and Tesla. Tesla stock tripled in the last six months, but not its revenues. One reason is that the market perceives Tesla has having faster growth than its tech peers, a view the pre-dates COVID, as this Morgan Stanley analyst explained last February. Since then, a Barclays analyst has doubted that CEO Elon Musk can live up to his targets, and saw flaws in his growth story. Last July, this analyst forecast Tesla to plunge in Q4. Our verdict: sell.
DON'T BUY
There is a lot of hype and expectations are very big for this company. They will have to execute everything perfectly like a robo-taxi service, software platform and a dominance in self-driving cars to justify their high multiple.
BUY ON WEAKNESS
Continues to move like crazy after the stock split. Pure momentum is driving it. Merit to what they're doing, but doesn't know that the sharp move up is sustainable. Periods of volatility. If you believe in the name, just wait for periods of weakness and chip away at it. Expensive, due to DIY trading.
RISKY
Broadly, they've built an electric car that the rest of the industry couldn't do. The traditional car companies can't compete with them. Tesla has improved the technology, and will continue to grow. You have to be able to stomach the volatility, but this presents buying opportunities. In the sweet spot in the industry.
DON'T BUY
Short it? It's shot up and challenged investor perceptions. Everyone is talking about Tesla. They have advantages over traditional carmakers, because Tesla records all driving data in their cars which they analyze. You really have to believe in huge market share gains in the coming decade, and revenues from software which offer high margins. A lot of things like these have to go right for Tesla. Don't short--or buy--it here. When the current buzz wears off, consider shorting.
DON'T BUY
He hasn't seen a stock with such a cult following. The short-sellers have been punished. He's been dying to short this, and thankfully he didn't. Tesla does not generate a profit. Logic fails here. This is pure momentum chasing this. There will be a day of reckoning for Tesla. Other car companies are developing their own e-cars, too.
COMMENT
Short sellers losing big time. About $18 billion has been lost by short-sellers, according to analysts. They delivered over 91,000 vehicles in their last report -- not huge.
DON'T BUY
Can't deny the momentum. 155x PE for a 35% growth rate. Beta is 1.5. Expensive. Market has high expections. Stay away. Can buy safer companies with a better valuation. Lots of competition.
PARTIAL SELL
At one point someone is going to have to pay for the extra capacity of charging eclectic cars. He would wait for 5 years. TSLA-Q is an expensive start-up run by a guy he does not have much confidence in. He would take your gains off the table.
