Why TSLA Is Climbing Today

More specifically, the company’s newly redesigned Model Y appears to be popular in China, while Morgan Stanley unveiled a very ambitious “bull case price target” on TSLA.

 Strong Demand in China Reported for the New Model Y

In just roughly 24 hours, Tesla received 50,000 orders in China for its updated Model Y EV, according to Chinese bloggers who said that they had obtained the information from Tesla’s salespeople. The 50,000 orders were reportedly tallied on the first day that they could be made.

 The SUV, whose price tag is 5% higher than that of its predecessor, is slated to start being handed over to buyers in March.

The refreshed Model Y is supposed to become available in Europe and North America in a number of months. TSLA has confirmed that it has begun producing the EV in Germany.

Morgan Stanley Places $800 “Bull Case Price Target” on TSLA

In a note to investors on Monday, the bank suggested that TSLA stock could jump to $800 in a year. According to Morgan Stanley, AI has become more critical for the automaker’s outlook as the EV sector becomes more competitive.

Boding well for the outlook of TSLA stock, Elon Musk’s firm has a meaningful edge over other firms in network services and autonomous ridesharing, according to Morgan Stanley.

The bank contends that Tesla can entice the owner of its EVs to pay subscription fees to it.
