Tesla - Analysts' Recommendations and Stock Price Forecast (2025)

MarketBeat calculates consensus analyst ratings for stocks using the most recent rating from each Wall Street analyst that has rated a stock within the last twelve months. Each analyst's rating is normalized to a standardized rating score of 1 (sell), 2 (hold), 3 (buy) or 4 (strong buy). Analyst consensus ratings scores are calculated using the mean average of the number of normalized sell, hold, buy and strong buy ratings from Wall Street analysts. Each stock's consensus analyst rating is derived from its calculated consensus ratings score (0 to .5 = Strong Sell, .5 to 1 = Sell, 1 to 1.5 = Reduce, 1.5 to 2.5 = Hold, 2.5 to 3.0 = Moderate Buy, 3.0 to 3.5 = Buy, >3.5 = Strong Buy). MarketBeat's consensus price targets are a mean average of the most recent available price targets set by each analyst that has set a price target for the stock in the last twelve months. MarketBeat's consensus ratings and consensus price targets may differ from those calculated by other firms due to differences in methodology and available data.

Tesla
Bull Case

Here are some ways that investors could benefit from investing in Tesla:

Tesla has a strong market capitalization of $1.32 trillion, indicating robust investor confidence and a solid position in the electric vehicle market.
The company reported earnings per share (EPS) of $0.72 for the last quarter, surpassing analysts' expectations, which reflects strong financial performance and growth potential.
Recent analyst upgrades have set a consensus target price of $283.39, suggesting potential for price appreciation from current levels.
Tesla's revenue increased by 7.8% year-over-year, demonstrating its ability to grow sales in a competitive market.
The company operates in two segments—Automotive and Energy Generation and Storage—diversifying its revenue streams and reducing reliance on a single market.

Tesla
Bear Case

Investors should be bearish about investing in Tesla for these reasons:

The stock has a high price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio of 112.45, which may indicate that it is overvalued compared to its earnings, posing a risk for potential investors.
With a beta of 2.36, Tesla's stock is more volatile than the market, suggesting that it may experience larger price swings, which can be risky for investors.
Analysts have given Tesla a mixed rating, with nine sell ratings and a significant number of hold ratings, indicating uncertainty about its future performance.
The company has a relatively low net margin of 13.07%, which may limit its profitability compared to competitors in the automotive sector.
Recent trading volumes have been below average, which could indicate a lack of investor interest or confidence in the stock at current price levels.
