Wall St and Tesla (Patreon)

It is clear, every time Tesla has an earnings call it turns into a poop show!  Tesla as far as I am concerned is not giving Wall St what they want.  Perhaps the new interim CFO is a big part of this. Some of these ideas came from listening to Dan Ives (tesla Bull and Wall St analyst)

Here are some reasons why Tesla stock is getting punished:

1) The majority of Tesla's stock performance issues are attributed to communication (80%), with only a smaller portion related to actual results or guidance (20%). 

2) The lack of clear communication and guidance from Tesla, especially during earnings calls, has left investors with more questions than answers, creating a significant overhang on the stock.

3) Dan Ives highlights missed opportunities for Tesla to communicate its strategy and performance effectively during conference calls, which could have reassured investors and potentially supported the stock price.

4) AI - Wall St has no belief or clue that Tesla is an AI play.  Perhaps boy who cried wold with FSD etc.  Bots mean nothing to Wall St. 

5) Tesla do not five wall st clarity on its broader AI strategy, including medium and long-term targets.  If they did, it could help institutional investors understand the potential value of Tesla's AI initiatives beyond its core automotive business. To be clear, it is an AI and Robotics company.  Wall St see it as a car company. 

6) Wall St needs data and guardrails to fill in their boxes, Tesla does not give that. 

7) Dan Ives - Despite believing in the significant potential value of AI to Tesla, Ives points out the current lack of metrics and investor guidance on this aspect. Wall St have no value how to appraise AI. 

8) Despite Tesla sharing plans and roadmap - Wall St does not get it.  Wall St need to see the Tesla plans to execute and monetize its AI and technology advancements.

9) Lack of this guidance shakes investor confidence, they see other US car makers EV business reeling and feel Tesla is in the same boat - IT IS NOT! 

10) Without clear numerical guidance, Wall St has no clue how to value Tesla.  

The good news - Elon Musk plans a State of the Union address next week is expected to cover a wide range of topics, from Tesla's AI, Bots, Model 2s, FSD etc I hope. 

I remain very bullish, will continue to match my position size along that of Crypto investments, I am also dabbling in some other positions - more miners, and some disruption. I continue to hold NVDA in addition.
