TSLA bullish call by Jo Bhakdi

TSLABullunverifiable

“At 340, are you kidding me? It's a buy.”

Thesis at the time

Strongly Bullish

The speaker reduced Tesla holdings tactically before disappointing July 2026 earnings, correctly avoided the crash to $300, and has now re-entered fully around $325-$340. He remains extremely bullish long-term, arguing the stock is undervalued relative to progress in energy, automotive, Optimus and Cybercab, and expects a near-term recovery toward prior highs as institutional buyers accumulate shares.

Key arguments

Institutional ownership rose roughly 20-25% (from about 1.8 million to 2.2 million shares), signaling smart money is accumulating despite poor retail sentiment.
Tesla's core businesses (automotive, energy/megapack) are improving even though the stock is down from $490 to around $340.
Cybercab production is ramping toward roughly 2,000 units per month, which the speaker sees as evidence of a real commercial plan despite slow deployment.
Robotaxi/Cybercab represents a far larger scalable TAM long-term than SpaceX's terrestrial compute business, making Tesla's growth story more attractive.

Counter-arguments acknowledged

The pace of FSD/robotaxi deployment has been slower than projected in December 2025, causing the stock to be re-rated down from about $490.
He estimates only a 40-50% chance that 10,000 Cybercabs will be commercially deployed by year end, even though he is 90%+ confident 10,000 will exist 'in the wild.'
