What the analyst said

Wedbush analyst Daniel Ives raised the price target on Tesla (NASDAQ: TSLA) to $550 (from $515) while maintaining an Outperform rating.

“We are raising our price target on Tesla from $515 to $550 as we have growing confidence in the demand delivery story for 2025 along with a fast tracking of the autonomous future under the Trump Administration.

Our time spent speaking to many in the Beltway the last few weeks give us a growing confidence the Trump White House the next 4 years will be a “total game changer” for the autonomous and AI story for Tesla and Musk over the coming years.

Our bull case remains $650 for 2025. We maintain our OUTPERFORM.”
