TSLA

Tesla, Inc. (NASDAQ:TSLA) announced a price hike for the Model Y starting in the second quarter, following a quarter-end discount on Models S, X, and Y. Analysts are divided on the implications of these price adjustments for Tesla's demand and margins. Gene Munster of Deepwater Asset Management sees a challenging near term but remains optimistic for 2025 and 2026. Ross Gerber views the price hike as an old sales tactic. Tesla's Q1 delivery expectations are tempered due to slow sales in China and production ramp-up issues, with an estimated delivery of 435,000 units versus a consensus of 475,000 units.
