NEUTRAL IMPACT
Goldman Sachs analyst Mark Delaney reiterates a Neutral rating on Tesla with a $235 price target, citing potential growth in AI licensing/services and FSD. He forecasts significant revenue growth for Tesla's FSD by 2030 and slightly lower FY23 revenue/EPS than consensus.
The analyst's neutral stance and the price target close to the current trading price suggest a balanced view with no immediate strong positive or negative impact expected. The potential for significant revenue growth in AI and FSD services is acknowledged, but the emphasis on execution amidst competition tempers the short-term impact.
