“my expected price goes up from 10,900 to 11,600 which would be my new price target for 2030.”@ 17:44 · open at this moment on YouTube ↗
Thesis at the time
Strongly BullishThe updated DCF model with lower robotaxi risk yields an expected Tesla price of $11,600 by 2030, with annual fair-value ramp implying $717 in 2025 and $1,300 in 2026, driven primarily by Optimus scaling to a 1 billion per year run rate by 2039.
Key arguments
- Robotaxi technology risk lowered from 30% to 15% after FSD v13 progress.
- Political risk lowered from 15% to 5% given Trump administration posture.
- Optimus at $12K RaaS undercuts advanced-nation factory labor by 80%.
- Wall Street will be forced to adopt this methodology because public YouTube/X models keep being right.
Counter-arguments acknowledged
- 2025-2027 ramp numbers are the decisive risk; failure to hit 100K robotaxis by 2028 would undermine the model.
- Optimus competition from China and Figure is higher risk than robotaxi.
