Tesla’s shares experienced a 2% increase on Monday after Morgan Stanley reinstated the electric vehicle maker as its top U.S. auto pick, citing the company’s advancements in artificial intelligence (AI) and robotics as key drivers for future growth.
Analyst Adam Jonas emphasized that Tesla’s evolution from a traditional automotive manufacturer to a diversified entity in AI and robotics could unlock significant value. He reaffirmed a price target of $430 for Tesla’s stock, implying a potential 44% increase from its current trading levels.
Despite recent challenges in its core automotive business, including a 45% decline in European sales in January,
Tesla’s strategic focus on AI and robotics, particularly through initiatives like its Dojo supercomputer, positions the company for substantial growth in these emerging sectors.
Overall, Morgan Stanley’s endorsement underscores the potential of Tesla’s technological innovations to drive future success beyond its traditional automotive operations.
