Should I Buy $TSLA Stock?
The bull case for Tesla ($TSLA) centers on its strong performance in the energy sector, demonstrated by an impressive energy gross margin of 24.4%, which exceeds prior estimates. Anticipation over the Cybertruck launch may further bolster profitability with a production target of 250,000 units annually, while advancements in battery technology promise continued cost efficiencies. Additionally, significant year-over-year growth in both Energy and Storage revenue and the Service & Other segment illustrates Tesla’s successful diversification and operational strength. Conversely, the bear case highlights troubling indicators from Tesla's third-quarter performance, such as a disappointing sales figure of $23.350 billion that missed market expectations, a decline in automotive gross margins from 18.1% to 16.3%, and a concerning outlook for 2024 EPS growth of less than 5%. Moreover, a decrease in customer deposits to $894 million—the lowest in over two years—points to potential challenges in consumer confidence, hinting at difficulties in maintaining pricing strategies and fostering innovation amidst a competing market landscape.
