Musk, it's trending again!
In recent days, technology stocks in the US have shown strong performance. On December 16th local time, the stock prices of companies such as Tesla, Apple, Amazon, and Broadcom all hit historic highs. Among them, Tesla surged more than 6%, its stock price broke through $460, and its market value further climbed to $1.49 trillion.
Tesla CEO Elon Musk's net worth also skyrocketed by $19.2 billion overnight, reaching $474 billion, also setting a new personal wealth record. Since the beginning of the year, with the sharp rise in Tesla's stock price and SpaceX's valuation, Musk's net worth has increased by $245 billion.
Since the November 5th US election, Tesla's stock price has risen by over 80% cumulatively. Some analysts pointed out that the close relationship between Musk and President elect Trump of the United States, as well as the Trump team's plan to relax the regulations on autonomous vehicle in the United States, were the main reasons for the sharp rise of Tesla's share price.
The sharp rise in Tesla's stock price this Monday is also related to several investment banks significantly raising the company's target price. Recently, Dan Ives, an analyst at Wedbush Securities, raised Tesla's target price from $400 to $515. In addition, Mizuho has raised Tesla's target price from $230 to $515 and upgraded Tesla's rating to outperform the market.
However, it is worth noting that there are reports today that a large number of Tesla new cars in the United States have experienced malfunctions in their autonomous driving computers, causing multiple functions including active safety features, cameras, GPS navigation, and range estimation to fail, and putting enormous pressure on Tesla's after-sales service.
Take a look at the detailed report!
Tesla's stock price hits a new high
On the 16th local time in the United States, Tesla surged more than 6%, with its stock price breaking through $460 and closing at $463, setting a new historical high. The company's market value also further climbed to $1.49 trillion. Since the November 5th US election, Tesla's stock price has risen by 83% and its market value has increased by nearly $680 billion.
With the rise of Tesla's stock price, Musk's net worth has also skyrocketed. According to the Bloomberg Billionaires Index, as of Monday's close, Musk's net worth reached a new high of $474 billion. Last week, Musk set a new world record, becoming the world's first billionaire with a net worth exceeding $400 billion.
Musk's personal wealth mainly includes his shares in Tesla, space exploration company SpaceX, and AI startup xAI. Musk previously acquired the social media platform X (formerly known as Twitter). Recently, it was reported that SpaceX's latest valuation has reached about $350 billion (approximately RMB 2.5 trillion), making it the world's most valuable private startup company, and Musk owns 42% of the company's shares. In addition, the valuation of xAI has reached $50 billion, doubling from May.
On December 15th local time, Dan Ives, an analyst at Wedbush Securities, raised Tesla's target price from $400 to $515, the highest target price on Wall Street. Dan Ives also pointed out that in an optimistic scenario, Tesla's target price could reach $650, with an expected market value of $2.1 trillion, while the new target price of $515 corresponds to a market value of approximately $1.7 trillion.
Tesla uses artificial intelligence based computing technology to train cars for autonomous driving, and its highest level of driving assistance software - Fully Automated Driving (FSD) - is still being continuously improved. The software is currently able to complete driving tasks most of the time, but still requires human supervision. At the same time, Waymo, a self driving company under Google's parent company Alphabet, completes over 150000 autonomous taxi services per week and plans to expand its services to more cities by 2025.
With the maturity of technology, Dan Ives and many Wall Street analysts predict that Trump's policies will make it easier to provide autonomous driving services. Dan Ives' report states that the Trump administration will become a game changer for Tesla and Musk in the areas of autonomous driving and artificial intelligence in the coming years. Dan Ives wrote in the report, "We believe that Tesla has begun to move towards a market value of $2 trillion in the next 12 to 18 months
Mizuho: Tesla's stock price may continue to rise
Tesla CEO Musk is a key figure in Trump's campaign, selected to co lead the new government efficiency department with entrepreneur Vivek Ramaswami. The relationship between Musk and the President elect of the United States, as well as the Trump team's plan to relax the regulations on autonomous vehicle in the United States, prompted Tesla's share price to continue to soar.
Mizuho stated that as Musk's close relationship with US President elect Trump paves the way for further growth in the next four years, Tesla's strong rebound is unlikely to cool down soon as regulatory easing will promote the electric car manufacturer's autonomous business.
Analysts from Mizuho stated in a report on Monday that the relaxation of the regulatory framework for autonomous driving (AD) has provided more upward space for the valuation of FSD/Robotaxi, indicating a favorable environment for Tesla's expansion in autonomous driving technology. Mizuho has upgraded Tesla's rating to outperform the market and raised its target price from $230 to $515, citing several special favorable factors in the next four years.
Analysts say that Tesla's fully autonomous driving (FSD) technology may receive Level 4 approval from regulatory agencies by 2025. They added that this will greatly enhance its revenue potential, generating approximately $62 billion in revenue by 2030, a significant increase from the current less than $1 billion.
Musk supported Trump during the campaign and is expected to exert influence in the White House to benefit Tesla. Analysts say that the Trump administration's new policies, including the potential cancellation of consumer electric vehicle tax credits, put Tesla in a favorable position relative to its peers because of the company's lower cost structure for electric vehicles.
Mizuho stated that Tesla is expected to surpass global light vehicle production through a more profitable electric vehicle roadmap, particularly with the low-cost Model Q and Cybercab models expected to be launched between 2026 and 2027.
Recently, with the rise of Tesla's stock price, institutions such as Goldman Sachs, Deutsche Bank, Bank of America, Morgan Stanley, etc. have all raised Tesla's target price, citing Musk's close relationship with the Trump administration and Tesla's leading position in the field of autonomous driving. Among them, Morgan Stanley reiterated its "preferred" rating for Tesla in its latest report and raised its target price from $310 to $400; Bank of America analyst John Murphy also raised Tesla's target price from $350 to $400 and maintained a "buy" rating after visiting Tesla's Gigafactory in Austin.
Tesla's new car in the United States has experienced a computer malfunction in its autonomous driving system?
On December 17th, Beijing time, according to the automotive news website Electrek, many new Tesla cars in the United States have experienced computer malfunctions in their autonomous driving systems, causing multiple functions including active safety features, cameras, GPS navigation, and range estimation to fail, and putting enormous pressure on Tesla's after-sales service.
According to reports, Electrek has received reports from multiple new Tesla owners in the past few weeks that their new cars have experienced computer malfunctions. The malfunction is related to Tesla's new HW4 (sometimes referred to as AI4) in car autonomous driving computer, which has experienced a short circuit. Within Tesla, some people also refer to the new version as AI4.1. Although the cause is still under investigation, an informed source told Electrek that one possible reason is that the low-voltage battery caused a short circuit in the computer during the camera calibration process.
Tesla owners reported that they experienced a computer malfunction after driving a brand new car for only a few tens to hundreds of miles. Multiple functions that rely on this computer cannot function properly, including active safety features, cameras, and even GPS, navigation, and range estimation.
According to reports, insiders within Tesla have revealed that the issue has a wide-ranging impact, involving cars equipped with new computers produced by Tesla in the past few months. Two insiders said that Tesla has received a large number of complaints about this issue, but has not yet issued any relevant service announcements regarding the malfunction.
At present, it is unclear whether Tesla has reported the issue to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration in the United States. According to regulations, the damaged rearview camera violates US federal safety regulations and should be forcibly recalled. At present, Tesla's main solution is to replace the computer, but the company is also considering pushing software patches to temporarily alleviate the problem. Tesla's after-sales service is currently overwhelmed by this issue and has postponed some repair appointments until next year.
The issue occurred at the end of this year, as Tesla was striving to deliver a record number of cars.
