有可能跌破200美元，小心观望，持续关注即可因为马斯克吹唏太大了，很多事情实现都持续延后

(NASDAQ:TSLA) stock has dropped after its \"disappointing\" Q3 earnings announcement. Tesla is trading around $225, down roughly 7% in pre-market when writing this. While Tesla's margins contract during this challenging phase, margin compression could be transitory. The slow growth and high-interest rate economic environment negatively impact Tesla's bottom line.Price cuts, inflation, high borrowing costs, and other temporary elements are eating into Tesla's bottom line, negatively impacting its stock price. However, Tesla's fundamental backdrop should strengthen as the economic downturn passes and the economy returns to normalized financial conditions. Due to Tesla's dominant, market-leading position, its economies of scale, and other competitive advantages, its revenue and EPS growth could accelerate in the coming quarters, leading to a much higher stock price in future years.Tesla's Buy-In Zone Approaches: $220-200TSLA (StockCharts.com)Tesla's stock is still in the $200-300 range. Tesla has consolidated in this range for around five months and could continue moving sideways in the near term. The technical image is stable, neither oversold nor overbought. However, constructive fundamental factors should push Tesla's stock higher, likely above the $300 resistance level in Q1 2024. We can continue making money from Tesla's stock via the wheel and the covered call dividend (\"CCD\") options strategies.The Tesla CCD PlanI sold covered calls against my Tesla position earlier this month, earning about 5% on my Tesla position after repurchasing the $270 covered calls before earnings. I then sold the $250 covered calls closer to its earnings announcement. Now, I am repurchasing those covered calls for a substantially lower premium. I own Tesla for the long term, and the stock makes money for me in times of volatility via the covered call dividend strategy.Tesla's Wheel StrategyWe can implement the highly effective wheel options strategy with Tesla. We can sell/create cash-secured put options, selling the 11/17/23 $220 puts for $20, earning a 10% premium, earning the possibility to purchase Tesla shares in our $220-200 buy-zone. Also, I am not worried about Tesla in the intermediate and long term, as its stock price should go much higher.Tesla's Transitory Margin CompressionTesla recently reported Q3 non-GAAP EPS of $0.66, missing the consensus estimate by seven cents. Additionally, Tesla reported $23.35B in revenues (+9% YoY), missing the consensus mark by $790 million. Tesla reported a Capex of $2.46B, a 19% rise over the same time last year.However, the primary reason why Tesla missed revenue estimates and reported slightly lower-than-expected profits was due to price cuts in the electric vehicle (\"EV\") segment. Tesla's most recent round of price cuts could cost the company around $2 billion in annual sales.While this may seem detrimental, Tesla's price cuts should be transitory. Tesla's ability to drop prices enables it to capture market share from other car companies. Moreover, Tesla can afford to decrease price tags due to its high level of profitability. This phenomenon represents a distinct advantage for Tesla, as it can raise prices in the future. Additionally, this dynamic should push Tesla toward advertising more, enabling increased sales.Tesla's Financial SummaryFinancial summary (ir.tesla.com)Total automotive revenues were $19.625B last quarter, a 5% YoY gain. Yet, deliveries surged by 26% YoY, illustrating the significant impact of the price cuts. However, EG&S revenues surged by 40% YoY, demonstrating solid demand and robust growth in Tesla's energy space. Services and other revenues also surged by 32%. Additionally, Tesla's Cybertruck and Tesla Semi segments should provide increasingly more revenues in 2024 and 2025. Moreover, Tesla's viral and ultra-profitable Model 3/Y segments should provide improved revenue growth in future years as ASPs go up.Tesla Deliveries - By Quarter, YearlyTesla deliveries (Statista.com)If we dig deeper, we see that Tesla's automotive sales revenue was about $18.58 billion in Q3. Once we adjusted for lease accounting, Tesla delivered around 14,706 Model S/X vehicles and approximately 402,311 Model Y/3 cars in the third quarter. If we use an ASP of about $110,000 from the Model S/X segment, we reach nearly $1.6 billion in Model S/X sales. Therefore, the Model 3/Y segment accounted for roughly $17 billion in revenues. This dynamic suggests that Tesla's Model 3/Y segment ASP was around $42,250.This ASP is a decrease over last year's ASP and is less than my (higher-end) $44,000 ASP estimate in Tesla Q3 projections. However, we should see Tesla ASPs increasing as the economic landscape improves, the Fed adopts a more accessible monetary stance, and cheaper financing options become widely available. Despite the challenging macroeconomic atmosphere, Tesla's gross margin was 18% last quarter. Tesla's GAAP net income margin was 8%.While we see some temporary margin compression, Tesla's margins remain healthy. Additionally, margin compression occurred due to price cuts, inflation, higher R&D spending, and other transitory factors. As economic conditions normalize, margins and profitability should improve in future years and quarters.The Bottom Line: Buy The Drop In TeslaWe get few compelling opportunities to buy drops in Tesla. Like all companies, Tesla has moments of imperfection and goes through challenging periods. Tesla is going through a transitory margin compression phase, but there is no reason to panic. Tesla's stock could go marginally lower from here, yet the downside risk is likely minimal.Tesla 5-Year ChartTSLA (StockCharts.com)Tesla's stock appreciated considerably. It also fell nose-first from its $420 top. However, the $100 bear market bottom may have been a generational buy. Therefore, we should not see Tesla's stock back near par again. However, we could see a more significant pullback to about the $200 level, roughly a 33% giveback from its recent high.Additionally, around $200, Tesla's stock would trade at 28 times $7 in next year's EPS estimates (higher ed EPS estimates go to $8). Despite Tesla's transitory slowdown in earnings growth, it could expand EPS more efficiently due to its dominant market-leading position, economies of scale, and other competitive advantages in future years.Source: The Financial Prophet.Risks to TeslaTesla faces challenges due to increased competition, inflation, margin compression, and a general economic slowdown. These and other risks could negatively impact Tesla's revenue and EPS growth, leading to lower-than-expected profitability. This bearish dynamic (if it plays out) could worsen sentiment, potentially leading to multiple compressions and a lower-than-anticipated stock price in the coming years. Investors should examine these and other risks before investing in Tesla.","kind":null,"is_publish_news":true,"is_publish_highlight":false,"is_publish_live":false,"is_publish_wemedia":null,"editions":null,"column":"","sentiment":"0","news_tag":"","news_rank":0,"symbols":[],"gpt_button":1},"commentList":[{"id":232595710353696,"gmtCreate":1697813897526,"gmtModify":1697813899563,"author":{"id":"3497006675108652","authorId":"3497006675108652","name":"enjoylife168","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/e6aa6e5e2392f958e0b4f4c6bac84d1f","vip":1,"crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"authorIdStr":"3497006675108652","idStr":"3497006675108652"},"htmlText":"有可能跌破200美元，小心观望，持续关注即可 因为马斯克吹唏太大了，很多事情实现都持续延后","listText":"有可能跌破200美元，小心观望，持续关注即可 因为马斯克吹唏太大了，很多事情实现都持续延后","text":"有可能跌破200美元，小心观望，持续关注即可 因为马斯克吹唏太大了，很多事情实现都持续延后","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/232595710353696","repostId":1180445624,"repostType":2,"isVote":1,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false,"reportStatus":false,"tweetType":1,"langContent":"CN"}],"isCommentEnd":false,"newsSizeData":{"likeSize":1,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":1,"favoriteSize":0,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false},"APP":{"userAgent":"Mozilla/5.0 AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko; compatible; ClaudeBot/1.0; +claudebot@anthropic.com)","isDev":false,"isTTM":false,"deviceId":"web-server-community-laohu8-v3","version":"4.29.1","shortVersion":"4.29.1","platform":"web","vendor":"web","appName":"laohu8","isIOS":false,"isAndroid":false,"isTiger":false,"isTHS":false,"isWeiXin":false,"isWeiXinMini":false,"isWeiBo":false,"isQQ":false,"isBaiduSwan":false,"isBaiduBox":false,"isDingTalk":false,"isToutiao":false,"isOnePlus":false,"isHuaWei":false,"isXiaomi":false,"isXiaomiWebView":false,"isOppo":false,"isVivo":false,"isSamsung":false,"isMobile":false},"href":"/m/news/1180445624"}
