Tesla Bull Says Growth Story Still Intact and 'Catalysts' Remain Despite Musk Antics
One of Wall Street's most bullish analysts thinks Tesla's growth story is still intact and, despite a raft of negative headlines for CEO Elon Musk, upside "catalysts" remain. Writing in a note to clients on Monday, Wedbush's Dan Ives notes that Tesla stock has been under pressure for a "myriad of reasons" this year following a massive run-up after President Trump's win in November. Along with EV demand issues, Musk's heavy involvement with the Trump White House and his influence broadening into the DOGE (Department of Government Efficiency) initiative have created a "visible perceived downside impact weighing on Tesla shares."
