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

green Wall Street bull icon

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

  • Tesla reported earnings per share (EPS) of $0.66 for the latest quarter, which, while below analysts' expectations, indicates ongoing profitability and potential for growth as the company continues to innovate in the electric vehicle market.
  • The current stock price of Tesla is approximately $374.21, which may present a buying opportunity for investors looking to enter at a lower price point compared to analysts' target prices.
  • Analysts have a consensus price target of $318.77, suggesting that there is potential for price appreciation, especially given the company's strong market position and brand recognition in the electric vehicle sector.
  • Tesla's return on equity stands at 10.31%, indicating effective management and the ability to generate profits from shareholders' equity, which is a positive sign for potential investors.
  • Recent insider trading activity shows that company insiders have sold shares, which can sometimes indicate confidence in the company's future performance, as insiders often have a deep understanding of the company's operations.

Tesla
Bear Case

red Wall Street bear icon

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

  • The company missed analysts' consensus EPS estimates by $0.08, which may raise concerns about its ability to meet future financial expectations and could lead to volatility in the stock price.
  • Insiders have sold a significant number of shares recently, totaling 523,386 shares valued at $195,995,200, which could signal a lack of confidence in the stock's short-term performance.
  • With 20.70% of the stock currently owned by insiders, any significant selling could impact the stock price negatively, as it may be interpreted as a lack of faith in the company's future prospects.
  • Analysts have mixed ratings on Tesla, with ten giving it a sell rating, which could indicate a lack of consensus on the stock's future performance and potential risks involved in investing.
  • The automotive market is highly competitive, and Tesla faces challenges from both established automakers and new entrants in the electric vehicle space, which could impact its market share and profitability.
