“I'm still extremely bullish on Tesla.”
Thesis at the time
BullishThe host remains bullish on Tesla, citing potential synergies with SpaceX (Starlink connectivity in vehicles, a possible merger via Optimus) and referencing his own 20-year valuation model. However, he explicitly states that relative to SpaceX's growth potential, Tesla is 'no contest,' implying SpaceX is currently his stronger conviction play.
Key arguments
- Every future Tesla will include built-in Starlink connectivity, enabling phone-to-vehicle networking including robotaxis.
- A potential SpaceX-Tesla merger via Optimus could unify the service/labor economy on Earth and in space.
- The host has built a 20-year valuation model for both Tesla and SpaceX suggesting continued upside for Tesla.
Hedges and caveats (from the video)
- No company in world history has reached $1 trillion in revenue
- Requires consistent incremental progress on current trajectory
- Starlink's satellite-to-mobile market capture is speculative
- Elon's capital allocation decisions on excess Starlink cash flows are uncertain
- Valuation assumptions for SpaceX merger with Tesla are speculative
