FULL TRANSCRIPT

0:01

oh man have the fundamentals of Tesla

0:04

changed after all Tesla down over 8.6

0:07

percent while the NASDAQ 100 up 2.27

0:10

leading a lot of folks especially retail

0:13

traders who were a big support for Tesla

0:15

stock like physically they underlie a

0:18

lot of the volume for Tesla stock

0:20

helping prop up Tesla prices and until

0:23

recently helping Tesla actually

0:25

outperform the NASDAQ 100 index year to

0:28

date well folks that has all shifted and

0:31

there are three major reasons why this

0:33

has occurred now none of my three

0:36

reasons are likely things in my opinion

0:38

at least that you've heard of before at

0:41

least not with my perspective see by now

0:43

you already know that a Tesla deliveries

0:45

missed consensus Expectations by about

0:48

five percent but that's not actually my

0:51

first reason in terms of why Tesla fell

0:53

it has to do with something different an

0:56

expectation that I think the market has

0:58

for Tesla that could be entirely wrong

1:01

let's see if that's true because if it

1:03

is it could create an opportunity for

1:05

Tesla and towards the end I'll talk

1:07

about was this a by the dip opportunity

1:09

or is this time to just sell forget the

1:11

fomo that is Tesla and move on well

1:14

first in order to understand issue

1:17

number one that I believe the market is

1:18

seeing we have to understand that

1:20

there's a ratio that Tesla has known as

1:23

delivereds to produced it's very simple

1:25

just go to Q3 2021 for example divide

1:28

240 000 delivered units divided by how

1:31

many units were produced that means you

1:33

delivered 240 000 Vehicles which is

1:36

actually more than you made of 238 000

1:39

units and you have a delivered to

1:41

produced ratio of 100.8 percent when the

1:44

number's over 100 it means you're

1:45

actually delivering more Vehicles than

1:46

you've produced in Q4 2021 that ratio

1:50

was 101 again you delivered more

1:53

Vehicles than you produced it actually

1:55

shows that uh manufacturing is behind

1:57

how many vehicles you're selling in q1

2:00

2022 we read

2:02

101.5 notice how in those three quarters

2:06

the numbers actually going up we are

2:09

delivering more Vehicles than we're

2:11

producing and production is actually

2:13

falling behind the deliveries that

2:17

signals at least to the markets not just

2:20

supply chain constraints but it also

2:22

signals potentially and well certainly a

2:24

lot of excess Demand right and this is

2:26

where it gets interesting watch this

2:28

when we go to Q2 we notice that we

2:32

produced 258

2:34

000 units which was obviously low

2:36

because of the Shanghai shutdowns but we

2:38

still produced more Vehicles 200 well

2:41

more we produce more Vehicles than we

2:43

delivered and that was actually a

2:44

reversal see in the quarter of the

2:47

Shanghai shutdowns we produced 258

2:51

000 Vehicles 500 plus 580 and we

2:54

delivered 254 695 that means we actually

2:57

produced more Vehicles than we delivered

3:00

in a month or in a quarter where

3:03

Shanghai was almost completely shut down

3:05

that's interesting now when we do the

3:07

ratio instead of being over a hundred

3:09

percent we're actually at 98.5

3:12

delivered to produced

3:15

now go to Q3 the numbers that just came

3:17

out we produced way more Vehicles than

3:21

we delivered we produced 365 923

3:25

vehicles and delivered only 343 like the

3:28

studio that makes Halo 343 830

3:32

000 vehicles

3:34

now what's interesting about that is

3:37

well 343 830 let me clarify my numbers

3:41

there sitting at the airport sometimes

3:42

the numbers just jarble together but

3:44

anyway what's interesting about that is

3:46

not only does the production represent a

3:48

53 growth weight rate in Q3 2022 to Q3

3:53

2021.

3:54

but it shows a substantial mismatch

3:57

between the number of vehicles that were

3:59

actually able to deliver and produce in

4:01

fact we only delivered 94 of what we

4:04

produced

4:05

this is a complete reversal from what

4:08

has consistently been a problem at Tesla

4:10

and the problem a Tesla has always been

4:12

that we're not able to produce enough

4:14

Vehicles compared to what we can deliver

4:15

now however markets just by looking at

4:19

this data I believe are concerned that

4:21

the excess demand for Tesla is over that

4:24

the delivery backlog is not just falling

4:26

that it's gone that now

4:29

Tesla is no longer a product that we

4:32

actually think can sell millions of

4:34

units per year sure maybe we can get to

4:37

a 1.5 million annual run rate of

4:40

vehicles but it's certainly not going to

4:41

be three four five six 10 million

4:43

vehicles and it's time to dump Tesla

4:46

stock

4:46

see the greatest fear for Wall Street

4:49

when it comes to Tesla is that not that

4:51

Tesla will produce the vehicles but that

4:53

nobody's going to be around to buy them

4:55

that's the concern especially in what's

4:58

likely a global recession

5:01

and these numbers this ratio

5:03

flip-flopping from last year being over

5:05

a hundred to now just 94 of of produced

5:10

Vehicles being delivered is a potential

5:12

red flag to markets now Tesla argues

5:15

that this is because of what they call a

5:19

logistic Nightmare and In fairness

5:21

they've produced more Vehicles than they

5:24

ever have before they produced again at

5:26

a 53 growth rate so maybe that makes

5:28

sense think about it you want to call up

5:30

a a company to deliver your Tesla from

5:33

manufacturing facility to distribution

5:35

facility and you're like hey I got

5:36

another 10 Teslas and they're like dude

5:38

we're already doing like 50 more Teslas

5:41

than you had for us last year at this

5:43

time we don't have as many trucks if you

5:45

want to pay us like double time to drive

5:47

your cars around sure we'll deliver all

5:49

of them but we're going to increase your

5:51

costs twofold for deliveries and Tesla

5:54

might look at that and go oh that

5:56

actually will cause even larger issues

5:57

to our numbers because that'll compress

5:59

our margin if we have to pay another say

6:01

thousand or fifteen hundred bucks just

6:03

to deliver these vehicles in this

6:04

quarter

6:05

or we just wait a week and still get the

6:08

same profit we would have otherwise it

6:09

just means we have a more disappointing

6:11

Q3 then we protect our margins so this

6:14

is actually a case in my opinion of

6:17

Tesla actually doing what is actually

6:20

good for shareholders which is reducing

6:23

cost and preserving margin

6:26

while at the same time unfortunately

6:29

disappointing Wall Street see even Elon

6:31

Musk went to Twitter yesterday and said

6:33

his job is not to pump the stock so that

6:36

leads to Temporary pain and a lot of

6:38

temporary selling at a time when there's

6:40

not a lot of extra cash and liquidity

6:42

around to be buying the dip in fact

6:44

retail buy orders have been trending

6:47

down over the last two months we used to

6:50

buy the dip at a rate of 1.1 to 1.3

6:53

billion dollars per day in in the market

6:54

in terms of retail Traders and and now

6:57

we're under a billion dollars a day in

6:59

buying the dip it's because the money's

7:01

running out and so we got less money to

7:03

to prop up Tesla stock so to speak but

7:06

this now is an argument that Wall Street

7:08

and Tesla are going to have and it's one

7:11

that only time will prove and it will

7:13

demand patience if you're a Tesla bull

7:16

you're going to say look there's plenty

7:17

of demand for Teslas we know that like

7:19

Tesla's doing the right thing here

7:20

they're preserving their margins

7:21

especially at a time they're probably

7:22

going to get whacked by currency

7:24

exchange uh fees I think that in Q3

7:27

we're going to probably see somewhere

7:29

around a billion dollar write down in

7:31

losses simply for currency exchanges

7:34

which is which is terrible but well

7:35

that's really problem number two we'll

7:37

get to that in just a moment uh and so

7:39

Tesla's decided you know what the last

7:41

thing we need is is more of an impact to

7:42

our margin because that's going to lead

7:43

to even more doubt for the company being

7:46

able to go forward and actually produce

7:47

vehicles at scale that'll actually

7:48

create more damage in the long term than

7:50

just shifting some of these deliveries

7:52

from a Q3 to Q4 basically

7:55

so regarding problem number one here's

7:57

my belief

7:58

according to at least what we can see on

8:01

Twitter and in financial news whether

8:04

it's Bloomberg or or you know Wall

8:06

Street expectations we believe that

8:08

Tesla still has an order backlog around

8:09

the world of somewhere around 300 000

8:11

Vehicles so we don't have a lack of

8:13

demand issue

8:14

and this is obviously evidenced or

8:16

hopefully evidenced by the fact that we

8:18

still have lead times for vehicles that

8:20

Rise Above and Beyond uh just supply

8:23

chain constraints or battery constraints

8:25

so I actually don't believe we have a

8:27

demand issue if Tesla actually has a

8:29

demand issue then it should rightfully

8:31

be down eight and a half percent in fact

8:32

it probably should be down more because

8:34

if Tesla's demand evaporates the stock

8:36

is screwed you do not want to be

8:38

anywhere near the stock

8:39

and remember the last time I confidently

8:41

said something like that was when a firm

8:43

was like 65 and I'm like you don't hold

8:46

this stock going into a recession

8:49

only some people listen to me but

8:51

whatever

8:52

um so problem number two is the currency

8:54

issue I don't want to just gloss over

8:56

that I want to make that very clear look

8:57

right now only 55 of Teslas are actually

9:00

sold within the United States based on

9:02

the Q2 report

9:03

we need that number to go up because you

9:05

do not have a U.S a strong U.S dollar

9:07

issue if more vehicles are sold in the

9:10

United States in fact it actually helps

9:12

you the strong dollar helps us if more

9:14

of the vehicles are sold in the United

9:15

States however if more vehicles are sold

9:17

in Europe or in Great Britain with a

9:19

weak pound or a weak Euro or or in China

9:23

with with a week you on uh even though

9:25

the Chinese are pulling back you know we

9:27

know that but even in other areas of

9:29

Asia their currencies are weakening

9:31

compared to the dollar then we end up

9:33

having to take an impairment for

9:34

currency a foreign exchange impairments

9:37

uh basically you know you sell a vehicle

9:40

for you know what should be forty five

9:43

thousand dollars in uh Chinese yen let's

9:46

say but by the time you convert it to

9:48

Dollars you're only left with 40 000

9:50

because the currency moved that much in

9:51

a quarter right that can happen that has

9:53

happened just look at Great Britain it's

9:54

a disaster look at the Euro it's a

9:56

disaster

9:57

so I think that's going to lead to a big

9:58

one billion dollar write down uh that's

10:00

gonna be temporary though we can work

10:02

that out of margin and see that

10:04

manufacturing is still scaling margin we

10:06

can make projections based on that which

10:07

I expect to be quite bullish

10:10

the third problem is AI day okay AI day

10:13

was was for the stock a disaster the

10:16

robot looked like an idiot

10:18

it was very hated on Twitter it was

10:21

compared to a robot that took millions

10:23

of dollars to develop from uh Honda uh

10:26

that that took 20 years to develop it

10:28

was compared to Boston Dynamics who

10:30

spent two decades uh manufacturing a

10:32

robot not at scale not with a brain but

10:35

a programmed robot

10:37

and what we got was a robot that looked

10:39

like it couldn't walk the new version

10:41

couldn't walk the new version looked

10:43

like it shot itself and quite frankly it

10:45

was a disaster now I covered all of my

10:47

thoughts on AI day in my Aid video

10:49

because what I actually saw was not a

10:51

disaster I saw a six-month prototype

10:54

with a brain and one that could be

10:56

produced at scale one that actually

10:58

makes me incredibly bullish and I don't

11:00

even have the Tesla bot in my valuation

11:02

that's just extra cream pie baby

11:05

or extra icing on the cake I I don't

11:08

know one of those anyway

11:10

the other thing is I was in full self

11:12

driving this weekend and finally I could

11:15

say this thing's actually driving a

11:17

little bit more like a human it doesn't

11:18

sit for 10 minutes at a red light on a

11:20

right turn lane waiting to turn right it

11:22

actually goes it moves it doesn't stop

11:25

at a stop sign when nobody's around I

11:28

mean it still stops at the stop sign but

11:29

what I mean like waiting forever it

11:31

actually like goes like a human in some

11:33

cases and it shouldn't do this but in

11:35

some cases it actually rolls the stop

11:36

sign which I actually think is quite

11:38

hilarious because it is driving like a

11:40

human and it's doing it in in a in a way

11:42

that a human would but it's actually

11:44

doing really well so I'm I personally

11:47

breaking apart these issues here

11:50

going backwards FSD massively bullish

11:53

more bullish than I've ever been and I

11:54

still don't have it myself I had to get

11:55

in somebody else's car thank you to the

11:57

person who let me drive with it or in it

12:00

AI Day Disaster for the stock phenomenal

12:03

for AI by the way did you notice their

12:05

labeling was just like the labeling that

12:08

we do for the house hack AI I got a lot

12:10

of hate for the househack AI for the

12:12

vision AI that we use for determining

12:14

wedge Deals they had the same radial

12:16

buttons that same old look it was great

12:20

it was such an honor I'm like damn

12:22

Tesla's labeling Vision just like

12:24

Kevin's labeling Vision I mean then they

12:26

also do Vision Video labeling which is

12:28

much more impressive I mean but that you

12:30

don't need to video label real estate

12:31

it's pretty static

12:33

um again going backwards the currency

12:36

issue will be a temporary hit that will

12:37

hurt us temporarily that'll hurt EPS

12:39

temporarily which means Tesla will look

12:41

more Rich valuation will rise

12:43

temporarily uh and honestly the the

12:45

delivery issues I I side with Tesla on

12:48

this I don't want them to spend more

12:49

money squeezing these into the last

12:51

minute uh you know delivery process save

12:54

the money on the deliveries take a

12:56

little longer to deliver them take your

12:57

time but I'm actually really impressed

12:59

by the production because I know the

13:00

demand is there the demand is there so

13:02

I'm not worried about the deliveries

13:03

even though that ratio is flipped that's

13:05

a Wall Street problem

13:06

but a 53 growth rate on production

13:09

holy so what did I do I bought the

13:12

dip all right I bought the dip I got

13:14

somewhere around 27k shares pre-split

13:17

still haven't divided it I don't know

13:19

what would that be let's just do it in

13:20

my head right now

13:21

that would be 81 000

13:25

25 times 3 is 75 3 times 2 is 6. yeah

13:28

like 81 000 shares-ish something like

13:32

that I don't know I need to actually

13:34

update it and do the math but anyway I

13:35

bought the dip today

13:37

and if we look at the valuation now it's

13:40

actually improved

13:41

so last time we did my spreadsheet if

13:45

you held Tesla for five years I believed

13:47

that we would get to a Target into the

13:49

500s it was like 580 or something like

13:51

that you'd have a compounded annual

13:52

return of like 19 well now because of

13:54

the sell-off if you held Tesla today for

13:57

five years in my opinion the compounded

13:59

annual return for Tesla would be closer

14:00

to 23 because you're getting it at a

14:02

lower price

14:04

my thoughts if you haven't heard this

14:06

stuff before let me know in the comments

14:07

down below I actually want to make sure

14:09

I continue to provide value that's

14:10

unique and I just I I don't want to just

14:13

rehash the garbage that other people say

14:14

or or tell you to go buy index funds or

14:17

you know something boring anyway thank

14:18

you bye
