Why It Matters: Earlier this year, Wood, CEO of ARK Invest, reaffirmed her bullish stance on Tesla despite a sharp downturn in its stock price. Wood emphasized the transformative potential of autonomous taxi networks, predicting a turnaround driven by these innovations.
In February, Wood reaffirmed her projection that her favorite electric vehicle company could reach $2,000 within five years, noting plans to revise the target. This valuation would imply a market capitalization exceeding $5 trillion for Tesla.
During the second-quarter results, Tesla reported a revenue of $25.5 billion, surpassing Street consensus estimates. However, the company’s EPS, operating margins, and free cash flow fell short of expectations, leading to a decline in Tesla’s stock.
Musk discussed various operational aspects, including a delay in the robotaxi project and the potential postponement of the Mexican Gigafactory due to tariff concerns.
Gene Munster, a tech analyst at Deepwater Asset Management, highlighted Musk’s strong conviction regarding vehicle autonomy. Musk stated that those who do not believe in Tesla’s ability to solve vehicle autonomy should not hold its stock.
Price Action: Tesla’s stock closed at $246.38 on Tuesday, down 2.04% for the day. In after-hours trading, the stock fell further 7.77%. Year to date, the stock has declined 0.82%, according to data from Benzinga Pro.
