A caller asked if their child should start a position in Tesla, Inc. (NASDAQ:TSLA), and Cramer commented:

“Absolutely. Absolutely. And… Tesla, you know, broke down after that report, that bad quarter. Adam Jonas, my favorite analyst in this space, said, listen, it’s time to start thinking about this. This is a technology company. I went out hard with his, I don’t mind being derivative with his idea. Boy, we’ve caught a lot and we’re not done. It’s going to go higher.”

Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA) designs, builds, and sells electric cars and energy products. The company offers services that include selling vehicles, providing financing. It provides energy storage solutions and delivers solar power systems. Baron Focused Growth Fund stated the following regarding Tesla, Inc. (NASDAQ:TSLA) in its Q1 2025 investor letter:

“Tesla, Inc. (NASDAQ:TSLA) manufactures electric vehicles (EVs), solar products, and energy storage solutions alongside the development of advanced real-world AI technologies. Shares fell due to declining analyst expectations for auto delivery volume and margins in 2025 as a result of 1) a refresh of the Model Y, its highest volume vehicle and the world’s best selling car in 2024; 2) Elon Musk’s controversial role in the Trump administration; and 3) regulatory changes that could pose potential operational challenges. Despite these headwinds, we remain confident in Tesla’s long-term growth, underpinned by secular trends in EVs and energy storage adoption, a compelling product line, its leading cost structure, and cutting-edge technology. A Model Y refresh alongside the debut of new mass-market models should boost demand. Over time, we expect the political pressure to fade, while Tesla’s AI ambitions—a robotaxi service launching this year and a fast-growing humanoid program—hold the promise of transforming its growth story.”

(NASDAQ:TSLA) as an investment, our conviction lies in the belief that AI stocks hold greater promise for delivering higher returns, and doing so within a shorter time frame.
