Behind the video
TESLA STOCK IS CRASHING.... (Bad News)
Overall Thesis
The video discusses recent market crashes and Fed policy decisions, with Tesla stock mentioned as experiencing negative price action amid broader market volatility.
Narratives
METAMeta PlatformsThe host characterizes Meta's earnings as outright bad, citing an EPS miss, a Q3 revenue guidance miss, a large operating income miss, and continued heavy losses at Reality Labs. He attributes the roughly 6-7% stock decline to these misses rather than to the capex outlook, which barely changed.
Key Arguments
- EPS came in at $6.18 versus $7.14 year-over-year, a miss
- Q3 revenue guidance of $61-64 billion missed the $63.2 billion estimate
- Operating income of $18.78 billion was down 8.2% year-over-year and badly missed estimates
- Reality Labs posted a larger-than-expected operating loss of $4.62 billion
Risks acknowledged
- Meta raised the low end of its full-year capex guidance, which in isolation could have been viewed positively
TSLATeslaThe host sees Tesla as fundamentally sound and believes its 40%+ drawdown from all-time highs is unjustified, framing it as a buying opportunity, while acknowledging near-term volatility tied to the broader market rotation, the Iran conflict, and oil prices. He expects Tesla could eventually be re-rated as an AI winner rather than grouped with struggling hyperscalers.
Key Arguments
- Tesla is down over 40% from all-time highs, which the host says 'you can't really justify'
- Tesla could benefit from a rotation trade out of hyperscalers/AI stocks into cyclicals and industrials
- Tesla may eventually be re-categorized as a beneficiary of AI rather than a spender on it
- Everything is 'going right fundamentally for Tesla' in the host's view
Risks acknowledged
- Tesla has a 20% weighting toward cyclicals, so if cyclicals can't catch a bid, Tesla will struggle to rally
- Outcome depends heavily on the Iran conflict and oil prices
- Selling in Tesla after hours may be algorithmic and not fundamentally driven
Predictions (1)
"Which you can't really justify that. So, I think that is an opportunity at this stage."
MSFTMicrosoftThe host views Microsoft's earnings as strong, highlighting beats on revenue, operating income, and cloud revenue, along with capex spending guidance that came in lower than expected. He notes the stock rose about 4% on the results.
Key Arguments
- Revenue of $90.01 billion beat the $87.72 billion estimate
- Operating income of $40.6 billion beat the $39.02 billion estimate
- Cloud and Azure revenue both beat expectations
- Capex including leases came in at $41 billion versus a $42.05 billion estimate, lower than feared
