Piper Sandler set a $400 price target for Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) following Tuesday's Q1 earnings call.
What Happened: The investment bank confirmed the price target on Wednesday, with analyst Alex Potter reiterating an overweight rating on the stock despite Tesla's poor performance in the latest quarter.

"In our preview last week, we predicted that (at best) Q1 would be a non-event. With the stock trading up slightly in the after-hours session, it appears our best-case scenario has materialized," the investment bank said.
Piper Sandler also maintained that Tesla didn't ‘hedge expectations' by announcing plans for launching the robotaxis, as well as more affordable models. Referring to the robotaxi launch in June, the statement then mentioned how there were some "interesting catalysts" for the investors ahead.&nbsp;
However, the investment bank did mention that it would largely depend on how Tesla's product launches, like the robotaxi and affordable models, materialize. "We reiterate our $400 price target,&#8221; Piper Sandler said.
Why It Matters: Piper Sandler isn't the only one optimistic about Tesla, with <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/44945402/wedbushs-dan-ives-raises-teslas-price-target-to-350-as-musk-promises-to-significantly-reduce-doge-time">Wedbush Investment's Dan Ives </a>also setting a price target of $350 on Tesla stock.
The analysts' optimism stems from Elon Musk reiterating his commitment to the EV giant as the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/44940401/elon-musk-says-hell-only-spend-day-or-two-per-week-on-government-matters-to-ensure-fraud-does-not-come-roaring-back-ceos-focus-to-shift-to-tesla-beginning-may">billionaire will scale back </a>on his DOGE duties with the Trump administration.
The company also announced it will <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/44942792/tesla-q1-earnings-call-company-says-more-affordable-models-launching-this-year">release an affordable model</a>, which will be based on Tesla's current line-up of vehicles like the Model S, Model Y, Model X, Model 3, and the Cybertruck.
However, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/25/04/44941889/teslas-sweet-little-lies-hide-worst-performance-ever-elon-musks-robot-takeover-talk-is-just-a-smokescreen-says-ross-gerber">analysts like Ross Gerber </a>aren't as optimistic about Tesla. Following the earnings call, the TSLA bull shared his thoughts on the social media platform X, calling it the "worst performance in Tesla's history."

Banning Nvidia Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) chips won&#8217;t stop China&#8217;s artificial intelligence development, according to Bernstein analysts, who suggest the export restrictions could instead strengthen domestic competitors like Huawei Technologies.
What Happened: &#8220;Banning the H20 would make no sense as its performance is already well below Chinese alternatives; a ban would simply hand the Chinese AI market completely over to Huawei,&#8221; Bernstein analysts wrote Wednesday, <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/nvidia-chip-export-bans-unlikely-hinder-china-ai-growth-2025-4">reported</a> Business Insider.
The President Donald Trump administration is expected to require licenses for exporting powerful AI semiconductors to China, effectively creating an export ban, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/44835247/nvidias-reported-failure-to-inform-chinese-clients-on-new-chip-restrictions-could-give-huawei-a-strategic-edge?utm_source=chatgpt.com">Nvidia disclosed in a regulatory filing last week</a>. 
The company <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/44830406/nvidia-to-take-55-billion-hit-over-china-chip-export-restrictions-but-top-analyst-dan-ives-says-hes-not-overly-concerned-all-part-of-the-high-game-of-poker">anticipates a $5.5 billion charge</a> related to inventory and purchase commitments for its H20 chip in the first quarter ending April 27.
Chinese companies have been reducing dependence on Nvidia by training models on unrestricted edge devices like personal computers and connecting Huawei chips with Nvidia processors. According to Bernstein&#8217;s channel checks, &#8220;most companies are able to carry on without H20 chips.&#8221;

Why It Matters: Huawei is reportedly preparing <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/02/43945751/huawei-boosts-ai-chip-production-despite-taiwan-semi-and-asml-ban-aims-to-challenge-nvidia-in-china?utm_source=chatgpt.com">mass shipments of its advanced 910C AI chip</a> as early as next month. The chip reportedly matches Nvidia&#8217;s H100 performance by integrating two 910B processors into a single package, according to Reuters.
Huawei has doubled the yield rate of its AI chips from about 20% a year ago to approximately 40% now, making its Ascend <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/02/43945751/huawei-boosts-ai-chip-production-despite-taiwan-semi-and-asml-ban-aims-to-challenge-nvidia-in-china?utm_source=chatgpt.com">chip production profitable for the first time</a>, the Financial Times reported. The company aims to reach the industry standard of 60% yield.
Chinese AI companies focused on foundation model subscriptions face the biggest challenge transitioning from Nvidia&#8217;s proprietary CUDA software. Bernstein noted one Chinese company required 200 engineers and six months to migrate to Huawei chips, achieving only 90% of previous performance.

On Wednesday, following Tesla Inc.'s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/25/04/44937440/tesla-q1-misses-estimates-as-tariff-pressures-weigh-on-outlook-lower-cost-evs-still-on-track">first-quarter earnings report</a>, longtime investor and Future Fund managing partner Gary Black voiced skepticism over the company's strategy to offer lower-priced EVs.
What Happened: In a post on X, formerly Twitter, Black expressed concern that these upcoming affordable models will simply be decontented versions of the existing Model 3 and Model Y, rather than entirely new vehicles that could expand Tesla's total addressable market (TAM).
Black stated that Tesla CFO Vaibhav Taneja said during the call that these vehicles would be "within the [existing] form factor," which reinforced his view that the models may not attract new buyers but instead cannibalize sales of more expensive versions.
Black also criticized Tesla CEO Elon Musk's <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/tech/25/04/44941657/elon-musk-equates-car-ownership-in-future-to-riding-a-horse-while-using-a-flip-phone-pierre-ferragu-says-teslas-iphone-moment-hinges-on-full-autonomy">analogy comparing Tesla's EV strategy</a> to Apple Inc.'s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>) disruption of Nokia Corporation (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NOK#NYSE">NOK</a>).

He argued that without truly new vehicle types, Tesla risks repeating its 2023-2024 pattern, when price cuts led to steep earnings estimate revisions with little volume growth.
A user on X said that cheap base models don't usually sell well because buyers prefer lightly used, better-equipped versions. The user predicted that the same might happen with Tesla, too.
In response, Black said analysts are currently expecting Tesla's sales declines to ease in the second quarter and even turn positive in the fourth quarter. However, if the affordable car flops or gets delayed, then Tesla's full-year 2025 deliveries could drop even more.
&#8220;Without the new more affordable car, TSLA [deliveries] would likely be revised to -5% to -8% YoY,&#8221; he stated.

Why It's Important: Tesla reported first-quarter revenue of $19.34 billion, marking a 9% decline from the same period last year and falling short of Wall Street's consensus estimate of $21.35 billion.
The EV giant noted that it will revisit its 2025 guidance during the second-quarter update. Despite the revenue miss, Tesla said it maintains sufficient liquidity to support both its current product roadmap and long-term plans for capacity expansion.
Tesla also reaffirmed that its more affordable vehicle models are still on schedule to enter production in the first half of 2025. Additionally, the company announced that volume production of its autonomous Robotaxi, dubbed the Cybercab, is slated to begin in 2026.
Price Action: Tesla shares climbed 5.37% on Wednesday, ending the session at $250.74. However, the stock is still down 33.89% year-to-date, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">Benzinga Pro</a>.
According to Benzinga Edge Stock Rankings, Tesla holds a growth score of 67.63%. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/premium/ideas/benzinga-edge-2#:~:text=Turn%20Market%20Chaos,when%20markets%20rebound">Click here to see how it compares with other</a> companies in the sector.

Outlook 2025
In response to macro headwinds and uncertainty around trade tariffs, the Company is optimizing its 2025 spending plan and will employ its portfolio optionality.

This reflects a better outcome than the changes to the reference scenario imply.&nbsp;</li>
<li>Oil and gas production is still expected at 1.7 mln boe/d, assuming a FY Brent price of 65 $/bbl.&nbsp;</li>
<li>FY GGP proforma adjusted EBIT is confirmed at €0.8 bln with an upside to over €1 bln in the event of positive negotiation outcomes and supportive market scenario.&nbsp;</li>

A new biography on Elon Musk sheds light on the billionaire entrepreneur&#8217;s Icarus moment. Hubris Maximus, by Washington Post technology reporter Faiz Siddiqui, uncovers &#8220;The Shattering of Elon Musk&#8221; across three distinct periods in recent years.
What Happened: On Wednesday, Siddiqui offered a brief glimpse of his upcoming book on Musk, discussing his opinions on CNBC&#8217;s &#8220;Squawk Box.&#8221;
Siddiqui says that his book depicts the Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) CEO in three distinct phases, starting with the controversial <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/23/01/30588579/elon-musk-tweets-funding-secured-in-2018-how-much-would-1-000-in-tesla-stock-be-worth-now">&#8220;funding secured&#8221; tweet</a> in 2018, which prompted a Securities and Exchange Commission investigation, followed by the COVID-19 era, and then the acquisition of Twitter, or as it&#8217;s now called, X.
See More: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/25/04/44965461/elon-musks-ex-wife-jumped-into-a-random-thread-to-answer-what-it-takes-to-be-a-billionaire-her-message-the-world-doesnt-care-what-you-want">Elon Musk&#8217;s Ex-Wife Jumped Into a Random Thread To Answer What It Takes To Be a Billionaire — Her Message: The World Doesn&#8217;t Care What You Want</a>
The book describes a pattern that Siddiqui notices with Musk, which often involves a big event, such as the acquisition of Twitter, resulting in public backlash, followed by a quiet period, and then reinvention, with Musk moving on to something else.
According to Siddiqui, his book depicts several instances of individuals who &#8220;fiercely&#8221; and &#8220;devotedly&#8221; believed in Musk&#8217;s promises, and while they still support his goals, they were &#8220;disappointed in the man.&#8221;
Unlike Icarus, the author doesn&#8217;t believe that Musk has, or is going to, crash and burn. What&#8217;s &#8220;shattered&#8221; is essentially the &#8220;veneer on Elon,&#8221; Siddiqui says. &#8220;Elon was unimpeachably our Tony Stark,&#8221; he says, but he doesn&#8217;t think that&#8217;s true anymore, thanks to the tech mogul&#8217;s &#8220;Hubris,&#8221; or exaggerated pride. 
Why It Matters: Recently, Musk&#8217;s behavior and <a href="https://benzinga.com/general/health-care/25/01/42935746/is-elon-musks-mental-health-a-cause-for-concern-biographer-thinks-so">mental health issues</a> came under scrutiny when his biographer, Seth Abramson, voiced his fears.
Musk himself has <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/biotech/24/03/37797951/elon-musk-on-ketamine-and-investors-value-if-there-is-something-im-taking-i-should-keep-taking-it">acknowledged and defended</a> his use of prescription Ketamine to treat occasional depressive episodes, adding that the drug has been beneficial for investors in his companies.
Back in 2017, when asked if he was bipolar by a user on Twitter, Musk replied, &#8220;Yeah,&#8221; before adding, &#8220;Maybe not medically [though].&#8221; Around the same time, he tweeted about experiencing &#8220;greater highs, terrible lows, and unrelenting stress,&#8221; hinting at bipolar disorder.

On Wednesday, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/44955303/tesla-stock-is-ripping-higher-wednesday-whats-driving-the-action">Tesla shares rallied</a> after Musk announced he would scale back his involvement in the Department of Government Efficiency starting in May, a market reaction that came in spite of the company's weak first-quarter results.
Analyst Dan Ives of Wedbush Securities <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/44945402/wedbushs-dan-ives-raises-teslas-price-target-to-350-as-musk-promises-to-significantly-reduce-doge-time">raised his target</a> for Tesla to $350, a 40% upside from current levels, merely on news of Musk&#8217;s return as a full-time CEO. This comes despite a range of challenges and headwinds now facing the EV giant. This &#8220;removes the black clouds over Tesla,&#8221; Ives said, as he will be &#8220;laser-focused&#8221; on Tesla again. 
Price Action: Tesla shares rallied 5.37% on Wednesday, following the company&#8217;s much-anticipated first quarter earnings, which was released on Tuesday.

Regarding the tariff situation, there could be some short-term disruption. We will continue to utilize the flexibility of our global manufacturing network to minimize impact of the evolving tariff landscape. Based on what we see today, we currently expect a EUR 20 to 30 million impact to our comparable operating profit in the second quarter from the current tariffs. Given the lack of visibility, we have not taken an assumption related to tariffs in the second half of 2025.

Only 15 percent of Americans, ages 18 to 29, think the nation is headed the right way, deepening what researchers call a generational crisis of confidence.
What Happened: The <a href="https://iop.harvard.edu/youth-poll/50th-edition-spring-2025">spring</a> Harvard Youth Poll of 2,096 respondents, aged between 18 and 29 years, found 51 percent believe the country is on the wrong track and 31 percent are unsure. Just 3 percent declined to answer. Trust in Washington is equally sparse, with only 19 percent saying the federal government "does the right thing" most of the time, while fewer than one in three trust Congress, the president, or the Supreme Court.
President Joe Biden still fares better than his successor on the question of who presided over sunnier times. 41 percent say the nation was better off under Biden, compared with 25 percent for former president-turned-incumbent Donald Trump.
Trump's approval rating among young people stands at 31 percent, virtually unchanged from the same point in his first term. Trust in congressional Democrats has tumbled to 23 percent, down from 42 percent in early 2019.

Pollsters tested nine items from Trump's 2025 agenda; none topped 35 percent support. The most popular, creating a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/startups/24/11/42069236/trump-tasked-elon-musk-to-oversee-government-efficiency-heres-how-musk-has-streamlined-costs-at-his-own-companies">Department of Government Efficiency</a>, drew barely a third of young Americans. Tariffs, abolishing the Education Department, and pardons for Jan. 6 rioters each mustered backing from two in 10 or fewer.
Why It Matters: Data from the Harvard Youth Poll coincides with the release of a new Reuters/Ipsos survey, which finds approval of Trump's handling of the economy and inflation has <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/25/04/44948841/trump-economic-approval-rating-drops-to-37-as-market-selloff-erodes-public-support-poll">slid to 37 percent</a>, down from 42 percent recorded just after his Jan. 20 inauguration. Together, the polls paint a picture of mounting public unease as Trump nears his 100-day mark.
Other gauges echo the turbulence. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/04/44890428/trumps-gallup-approval-stands-at-45-topping-same-point-in-first-presidency-but-hes-down-16-in-economist-survey">Gallup</a> put Trump's overall approval at 45 percent in April — up from 41 percent at the same point in his first term — while an Economist/YouGov survey reported a 16-point plunge since January. An <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/global/25/03/44183107/trumps-approval-rating-48-voters-disapprove-of-handling-of-russia-ukraine-war-55-think-world-war-to-happen">Emerson College poll</a> in March showed a steadier 49 percent rating, even as opinions split over his handling of the Russia-Ukraine war. However, the latest Reuters/Ipsos figures suggest a sustained downward trend tied to economic anxieties and jittery financial markets.
