Key Points
Shares traded down about 1.2% to roughly $454 mid‑day with volume ~58.6M (about 40% below the average session), leaving the stock exposed given a very high P/E (~302.9) and recent multi‑day pullback.
The main near‑term headwind is Tesla's company‑compiled consensus showing roughly 15% fewer Q4 deliveries (~422,850 vehicles), compounded by Cybertruck demand/quality concerns and a sharply reduced battery‑deal value.
Analysts are mixed: some firms remain bullish on long‑term catalysts (robotaxi/FSD — ~7B miles of fleet data, Optimus, energy) with high targets (e.g., Baird ~$548), but the MarketBeat consensus is a Hold with an average price target of $414.50, and recent insider/large‑fund selling has added selling pressure.
