FULL TRANSCRIPT

0:00

there are no shortages of negative

0:02

catalysts for Tesla I will be reviewing

0:04

those negative catalysts towards the end

0:06

of this video but first i'm going to

0:08

introduce something to you that could

0:10

actually be mind-blowing and I'm not

0:12

here to fluff or pump the pricing power

0:16

good old PP of a Tesla I'm just here to

0:19

provide you what could be a very

0:21

realistic future for Tesla relative to

0:24

the competition look we've all heard

0:27

about these rumors about production Cuts

0:30

in the automotive industry and the fact

0:32

is it's true the automotive industry is

0:35

likely to reduce production in 2023 as

0:39

we go into a recessionary environment

0:41

now this is actually very very common

0:43

first of all we've already seen Toyota

0:45

reduce production in December we also

0:48

have Toyota suspending production at two

0:50

very large plants in Japan for 16 days

0:53

throughout January citing shortages and

0:56

a covid but let's be real it's probably

0:59

because of man drop off even Bentley is

1:02

reducing their production targets for

1:04

2023 as Chinese new orders slow and they

1:08

shelve their IPO plans the fact is that

1:11

North American vehicle production for

1:13

new vehicles is expected to be less than

1:16

the 18 million vehicle production cycle

1:18

Peak that we ordinarily hit before the

1:21

crazy times we've been going through of

1:23

shortages and that's because

1:25

manufacturers are likely to try to

1:28

survive rather than to increase their e

1:32

v efforts now that I really want you to

1:36

think about what I just said if

1:38

manufacturers try to focus on Surviving

1:40

rather than focusing on EV what does

1:44

that potentially mean well consider the

1:46

following price and margin become very

1:50

very important during a recession and

1:52

what does a company like Ford not have

1:55

with their lightning 150 pickup truck or

1:58

their Mach e

1:59

price and margin they don't have that

2:02

why because their gross profit on these

2:05

vehicles is negative now that's really

2:09

scary but it makes sense why right now

2:12

Ford is only producing sixty thousand

2:15

machines and thirty thousand F-150s just

2:19

one fifth that's just 20 percent of

2:22

their 2023 targets because they're money

2:25

losing money pits money losing money

2:28

bits they lose a lot of money okay now a

2:31

lot of folks say but Kevin isn't the EV

2:33

credit likely to sway more automakers

2:35

into the EV market after all it's 7 500

2:39

bucks to the consumer and it's rumored

2:41

that maybe manufacturers who make EVS

2:44

could take a lot of that benefit and the

2:46

consumer just basically pays a higher

2:47

price the manufacturer takes a lot of

2:49

that benefit

2:50

potentially but the EV credit is only

2:54

likely to represent under one percent to

2:58

at best

3:00

1.3 of vehicle sales between now and

3:04

2030. so you have to ask yourself if

3:07

you're a Legacy auto manufacturer if

3:10

you're a GM a Ford or a Toyota are you

3:13

really trying to risk the profitability

3:17

of your company chasing electric

3:19

vehicles because of a tax credit that's

3:22

going to cap at 1.3 percent of total

3:25

vehicle sales

3:26

of course not in fact you're much more

3:30

likely to actually double down on your

3:33

Antiquated ways and try to suggest that

3:36

you as part of the ice vehicle

3:40

manufacturing industry are part of none

3:43

other than folks the silent majority I

3:47

5:09

delivered on Christmas or Christmas Eve

5:12

whatever you prefer for you let me

5:14

introduce you to exhibit a a Wall Street

5:17

Journal article that talks about the

5:19

president of Toyota whose last name is

5:23

toyoda

5:24

yes yes I know uh anyway

5:27

questioning whether electric vehicles

5:31

should be pursued exclusively now we

5:34

know that EVS are difficult to

5:37

manufacture relative to ice in that you

5:39

have to secure new Supply chains but

5:41

they're actually substantially easier to

5:42

put together once you figure your stuff

5:44

out but the president of Toyota says

5:47

they would prefer to focus on hybrids

5:49

and Ice vehicles and get this hydrogen

5:53

powered vehicles

5:55

rather than focus on EVS because you

5:58

know what they say they say the

6:00

following the silent majority is when

6:03

wondering whether electric vehicles are

6:05

really okay to have as a single option

6:08

the silent majority think that the trend

6:12

is electric vehicles so I guess we can't

6:14

speak out loudly against electric

6:16

vehicles but let's be real we're all in

6:19

on Ice vehicles and hybrids and hydrogen

6:21

power powered vehicles and those good

6:23

old gas engines because that's what

6:25

people want because you know what

6:27

charging infrastructure is still too

6:29

challenging so therefore let's just

6:31

Double Down On Ice vehicles and after

6:34

all the gas engine businesses are

6:36

driving a bulk of the profits that these

6:39

companies are creating anyway and so

6:41

again why potentially risk massive

6:45

downside to your company stock and

6:47

profitability by doubling down on

6:50

electric vehicles during a recession why

6:53

not instead just paint the picture that

6:55

hey you know what electric vehicles are

6:58

a niche segment of the business just 6.5

7:01

percent of the total Global new car

7:04

market and you know what we could

7:06

instead just focus on hybrids that can

7:08

deliver a better shorter term impact for

7:11

the climate and you know what electric

7:14

vehicles are just too complicated in

7:16

fact look even us over here at Toyota

7:19

you know we've been a little slower than

7:21

Rivals to roll out electric vehicles and

7:24

maybe it's because the ones that we've

7:25

created like the bz4x got recalled

7:29

because of safety problems

7:32

well folks this is actually really

7:34

interesting because what I want you to

7:36

think about here for a moment is wait a

7:37

minute

7:39

if Kevin is suggesting that the Eevee

7:42

tax credit is ironically not good enough

7:46

to motivate manufacturers to get into EV

7:51

manufacturing other than those that

7:53

already are like lucid rivie and tassel

7:55

right if that's not enough to motivate

7:57

the forward the GMS the Teslas the Audis

8:00

the Mercedes to really double down on EV

8:02

manufacturing especially going into a

8:04

recession where they might want to

8:06

appear profitable so they Double Down On

8:08

Ice Vehicles rather than EV then wait a

8:11

minute

8:12

the competition is exiting in the

8:16

recession think about that folks the

8:19

recession is destroying Tesla's

8:23

competition okay sure look Lucid is an

8:27

EV right they'll benefit benefit prop

8:30

potentially from this EV tax credit if

8:32

they can Source locally at over 75

8:34

percent blah blah blah blah right maybe

8:36

but if they produce 17 000 vehicles in

8:39

2023 knock on wood for their sake they

8:42

will still have half of their customers

8:44

waiting until 2024 for a vehicle when

8:47

you could press buy now on a Tesla right

8:49

now baby and guess what

8:52

I don't know about you but if I want

8:54

something I kind of rather have it now

8:56

then wait another year so there's a real

8:59

big benefit to Tesla being able to say

9:01

hey push the buy now button on a car and

9:04

you'll have it tomorrow people like that

9:07

people like instant gratification and

9:09

that's why Lucid is now scrambling to

9:11

prevent cancellations I did a video the

9:14

other week when I was covering the

9:15

riving and Lucid bankruptcy potential

9:17

where Lucid is potentially now

9:19

scrambling to say if somebody wants to

9:21

cancel a local manager has to call the

9:24

person three times then a regional

9:26

manager has or store manager has to call

9:28

the person two times then a regional

9:29

manager has to call the person two times

9:31

and they all have to try to convince the

9:33

person not to cancel the deal something

9:35

to that effect now Lucid did just raise

9:37

1.5 billion dollars and add the money at

9:41

the market at the money offering which

9:44

is basically just a stock offering they

9:47

raised 1.5 billion dollars the stock

9:49

actually went up briefly on this news

9:51

because it decreases their bankruptcy

9:53

risk slightly it gives them another nine

9:55

month Runway of cash burn 1.5 billion

9:58

dollars is roughly the cash burn they

10:00

had in the last nine months but another

10:02

company expecting cancellations is

10:04

Arabian mostly due to the fact that

10:06

their entry product is now more than

10:07

eighty thousand dollars why not buy a

10:10

Tesla Model three potentially for closer

10:13

to forty thousand dollars

10:15

anyway Point here is

10:17

that this recessionary environment

10:20

interestingly from a fundamental point

10:23

of view could absolutely destroy Tesla's

10:28

competition and pave the path to none

10:31

other than

10:32

reiterating which already is dominant

10:34

Tesla's actual dominance as the other

10:37

manufacturers crawl into a hole and go

10:40

back to making the gas guzzling Vehicles

10:42

they're good at producing

10:45

wow now how's that for a fundamental

10:48

argument you haven't heard of before but

10:50

wait a minute Kevin the stunk is going

10:52

down and it's so painful I look at my

10:55

portfolio and it's red every day yes

11:00

I feel ya okay

11:02

it makes me want to go back to the

11:04

bottle

11:05

I'm talking of course about like the

11:07

baby bottle like drinking milk and

11:09

crawling up into a hole and being

11:10

covered in a little blankie and going to

11:12

sleep until it's all over it does hurt

11:14

it sucks and if you define yourself buy

11:18

your portfolio every morning you're

11:20

gonna get watery eyes and and your

11:23

stomach's gonna feel bad and you're

11:24

gonna oh God you're gonna feel a

11:26

shortness of breath why because in the

11:28

stock market and this is something we

11:30

teach in the stocks and psychology of

11:31

money group and this is not a get rich

11:33

quick kind of scheme my courses are

11:36

long-term programs on building your

11:37

wealth trying to teach you how to change

11:39

the way you think in painful times that

11:42

is hard to do and let me just give you

11:45

one Insight here it is hard to see your

11:49

portfolio go down why because my friends

11:52

because because because

11:53

when we are in pain or in fear we seek

11:59

the natural reaction of either fight or

12:02

flight well guess what folks you can't

12:05

fight stocks just like you can't fight

12:08

the Fed so what are you left with flight

12:11

that's it it's either you eat the pain

12:15

or you flee

12:18

and you sell and that sucks and I'll

12:21

tell you there are no shortages of

12:24

short-term garbage catalysts

12:27

tax loss harvesting please tax loss

12:30

Harvest some Tesla most retails sell in

12:33

December to tax loss Harvest and most

12:35

retail rebuy in January probably because

12:39

of tax loss harvesting

12:41

guess what else you have an

12:44

institutionally Untouchable stock with

12:46

every single credit or maybe not every

12:48

single but many different uh price

12:50

targeting firms uh reducing their price

12:53

targets for Tesla because guess what

12:55

that's what they do when stock prices go

12:57

up they increase their price targets

12:59

when stocks go down they decrease their

13:01

price targets you want to fact check

13:03

that go look up what the price targets

13:05

were for Nikola when the stock was going

13:07

up everybody on wall Street's raising

13:10

their price targets about how great

13:11

Nikola is

13:12

all a farce it's all a short-term farce

13:16

I kid you not it's all a farce sure Elon

13:19

Musk is looking for a new CEO for

13:20

Twitter yes Elon Musk is robbing the

13:22

piggy bank of Tesla yes yes Elizabeth

13:25

Warren is correct when she says Elon

13:29

Musk is using Tesla as his play thing

13:32

she is right and I almost never agree

13:34

with Elizabeth Warren okay but she is

13:36

right Elon Musk is using Tesla as his

13:40

piggy bank to go dick around at Twitter

13:43

but you know what

13:45

that's his right okay it might be a slap

13:49

in the face to every Tesla investor it

13:51

might be a slap in the face to every

13:54

engineer and hard-working soul with

13:56

stock options at Tesla and they might

13:58

see their net worth plummeting and they

14:00

might doubt the own company they work

14:03

for but the reality is just because Elon

14:06

absorbs six weeks of retail order book

14:09

of hoddle order book with one foul swoop

14:12

of selling doesn't change the long-term

14:14

fundamentals for Tesla now I know some

14:16

people then go oh my gosh but Kevin the

14:20

volume is so much higher on Tesla stock

14:21

what do you mean six weeks of the order

14:23

book

14:24

listen institutions trade stocks retail

14:28

individuals trade stocks that's how you

14:30

get volume volume is trading but there

14:32

are also hodlers of a stock like

14:34

employees who believe in the company or

14:37

long-term investors who believe in the

14:38

company and when those people have their

14:41

shares eradicated by Elon selling you

14:45

actually Notch the fundamental floor for

14:48

Tesla stock down and I should not use

14:51

the word fundamental here because

14:52

fundamentals should be long-term

14:54

business fundamentals but you have to

14:56

think that huddlers long-term Believers

14:58

in a stock create a floor a trading

15:01

floor for a stock and when those floors

15:04

get broken and they're purchasing their

15:07

fundamental based purchasing gets eaten

15:09

Away by Insider selling because elon's

15:12

going to go play with uh you know

15:13

Twitter

15:15

it sucks there's nothing you can do

15:18

about it but that's what happens and you

15:20

end up absorbing six weeks of retail

15:22

buying pressure huddle buying pressure

15:25

on Tesla because of Elon sales and if

15:27

he's selling again uh yeah you know

15:29

today where the NASDAQ is flat and

15:31

Tesla's down two percent again

15:34

maybe maybe and it's painful but let's

15:37

also consider something else some folks

15:40

are worried that Tesla might have to

15:42

drop prices or hey what's going on with

15:45

the Tesla China demand okay look China I

15:49

believe is in the biggest depression

15:51

ever not only that but they're lying to

15:54

our faces about how many people are now

15:56

dying to covet as overnight they just

15:58

lifted the blanket of covet and they're

16:00

like you know what everybody gets sick

16:01

if you die oh well okay who the hell is

16:05

gonna buy a car in China when everybody

16:08

is stuck at home either fearful of

16:10

getting sick or they are sick okay

16:13

China's gonna go through hell for the

16:15

next two or three months and it's gonna

16:17

suck

16:19

but which should not make you fearful

16:22

is the reiteration Tesla is giving you

16:25

about Tesla Mexico

16:27

Tesla Mexico is expected to be at least

16:29

an 800 to 800 million to one billion

16:32

dollar investment into the northeastern

16:34

facility of Giga tax era of gigas Giga

16:37

Mexico actually and uh this is initially

16:40

expected to produce a components

16:42

supplying uh Giga Austin Texas but in

16:46

the future could have as much as 10

16:49

billion dollars of investment flow into

16:51

Giga Mexico and potentially be the site

16:54

of a new low-cost production Tesla this

16:56

is a huge game changer for Tesla and an

17:00

incredible opportunity to exercise

17:03

optionality on the long-term value of of

17:06

Tesla uh Giga Mexico is going to be huge

17:10

especially in my last video about gig at

17:13

Mexico where we talked about Tesla is

17:14

likely to explode soon because Giga

17:18

Mexico is part of the free trade

17:21

agreements that we need for Tesla to

17:23

maximize that 7 500 EV credit for all

17:26

their customers over the incremental

17:29

incrementally harder targets that are

17:31

set over the next years and think about

17:33

this put these pieces of the puzzle

17:35

together here

17:37

yes in the short term you have China fud

17:41

it's real okay it's not it's not fake

17:43

news it's real china demand falling off

17:45

a cliff because of what's happening in

17:47

China

17:48

but in the long term what do we have

17:50

other manufacturers going away and

17:52

moving away from EVS to protect their

17:55

profit margins where Tesla can now step

17:58

in and just take more of the EV tax

18:00

credit and is now likely rather than

18:03

doing stock BuyBacks to appease the

18:05

whiny people on Twitter

18:07

reinvesting in itself because it

18:09

believes so much in its own demand

18:11

now I know some people are concerned but

18:13

why when you go on Tesla can you now hit

18:15

buy now instead of custom order this is

18:17

a good thing we talked about this in the

18:20

course member live stream yesterday this

18:21

is a good thing if I go into the Apple

18:24

Store and I'm like and I did this I

18:26

bought this in Paris this is uh you know

18:30

I don't know this is like the star star

18:32

color or whatever of the iPad Mini here

18:34

I walked into that store and I said I

18:36

want the mini iPad if they told me well

18:38

it'll be three weeks I'm like well then

18:40

I won't buy it I mean I'm on vacation

18:41

now I want a smaller iPad to have while

18:43

I'm walking around Paris and traveling

18:44

and stuff but no what do they say sure

18:47

hey you know what we don't have all the

18:49

colors available but we got this one oh

18:50

yeah you know what I'll take it because

18:52

I want it now that's America

18:55

or first world country since that was in

18:58

France but anyway

18:59

that's what we want we want things now

19:01

and if Tesla can provide now and they're

19:05

still not yet reducing prices that's a

19:08

really good sign now I do want you to

19:09

prepare price Cuts will come but as long

19:12

as price Cuts occur

19:14

slower than costs decline that could

19:19

actually be okay because it means that

19:22

Tesla can actually potentially either

19:24

maintain or increase margin while

19:29

reducing prices and remember even if

19:31

Tesla doesn't necessarily reduce prices

19:33

even if prices stay stable it's still a

19:37

good thing for the Federal Reserve

19:38

because we just don't want to see prices

19:40

increasing we want to see stability that

19:43

stability is zero percent inflation so

19:46

long and short out of all of this yes

19:49

other manufacturers are going to scale

19:51

back their EV production in a recession

19:53

yes there are a hell of a lot of bad
