Tesla - Analysts' Recommendations and Stock Price Forecast (2024)

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.

  • Recent analyst ratings show a positive outlook, with firms like Royal Bank of Canada raising their price target to $313.00, suggesting confidence in Tesla's future performance.

Tesla
Bear Case

red Wall Street bear icon

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

  • Insider selling has been notable, with significant transactions such as a director selling 100,000 shares at an average price of $346.02, which may raise concerns about the company's future prospects.
  • The stock has a high price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio of 93.71, which could indicate that it is overvalued compared to its earnings, making it a riskier investment.
  • Despite recent growth, Tesla's revenue fell short of analyst estimates by approximately $290 million, which could signal potential challenges in meeting future expectations.
  • The company has a beta of 2.29, indicating higher volatility compared to the market, which means that investors may face greater risks with price fluctuations.
