Tesla stock is big buy, Goldman Sachs says

Tesla's stock has been on an electrifying run this summer, and it may not yet be over.

 

Shares of the EV maker are up 12% in the last three months, handily outperforming the S&P 500's nearly 5% decrease over that time.

 

Wall Street credits the push higher in Tesla shares to optimism around new government legislation that will support the adoption of EVs in 2023 and beyond. Tesla's strong execution in the first two quarters of the year has also won over the bears.ote details

 

Despite the stock's rise, Goldman Sachs analyst Mark Delaney believes there is more upside to Tesla. Delaney's hot take comes after a meeting with Tesla's head of investor relations Martin Viecha.

Here's what Delaney had to say on Tesla following that pow-wow.

 

Price Target: $333.33

 

Rating: Buy (reiterated)

 

Stock price movement assumed: +22%

 

Takeaway #1: Tesla's costs are headed lower

"Tesla’s automotive cost of goods sold per vehicle fell to about $36,000 in 2021 from over $70,000 in 2017. While this metric increased in the second quarter driven by factory shutdowns, factory start-up costs, and input cost pressure, cost of goods sold per car can trend lower over time as Tesla benefits from the ramp of the Berlin and Austin factories (and the reduced percentage of vehicles coming from Fremont, which is a converted ICE factory with higher costs than Tesla’s purpose-built EV factories), scale, and vehicle platform and battery improvements."

 

Takeaway #2: Tesla is a winner from the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA)

 

"It’s too soon to say what impact the Inflation Reduction Act will have for Tesla, and a lot will depend on guidance from the government about how the law will be interpreted. However, we note that the IRA does seek to encourage a North America based EV supply chain and Tesla has more local manufacturing than average (with Model 3 and Y recognized as the most American-made vehicles per media sources), and we believe this will be a positive for Tesla to potentially qualify for at least partial credits on some vehicles over time (and Tesla could potentially benefit as well in our view from incentives for solar, batteries, charging, and commercial vehicles)."
