TSLA bullish call by Brighter with Herbert

TSLABullunverifiable

“I actually think this is going to be a fun time for people that follow and like Tesla or Tesla investors because kind of everything that they've been grinding at for the last couple of years is now going to start paying off.”

Thesis at the time

Strongly Bullish

The hosts argue Tesla is regaining momentum as competitors retreat, citing recovering US EV market share, insurer-validated FSD safety data leading to cheaper insurance, and new market expansion into Vietnam. They believe years of Tesla's engineering and supply-chain investments are now compounding into a durable competitive advantage.

Key arguments

Tesla's US EV market share has recovered to over 50% after the EV tax credit repeal, which hurt subsidy-dependent competitors more than Tesla.
Zurich Insurance and Lemonade are offering cheaper premiums for FSD-supervised driving due to data showing 7x fewer collisions, improving the economics of Tesla ownership.
Tesla registered a new subsidiary in Vietnam, signaling official market entry and higher-volume growth in Southeast Asia.
Tesla maintained or grew gross margins despite losing tax incentives and facing new tariffs, unlike legacy automakers.

Counter-arguments acknowledged

Some media coverage remains skewed negative toward Tesla despite improving fundamentals.
