Major Tesla Stock Catalysts | The Next 90 Days.
完整文本记录
Let's talk Tesla. It's been a minute.
We've done some big deep analysis on the
channel. A lot of folks wondering,
Kevin, what's the catalyst now to get
through 318? We've now, for the second
time, bounced off of 295 thanks to Elon
pooping on Donald Trump. But we have a
host of good catalysts on the horizon
for Tesla. Question is, are those
catalysts actually going to lead the
stock to go up? So, first and foremost,
the first thing that I think is a big
catalyst is that this big, beautiful
bill is going to pass. In my opinion,
that's actually great. Why? Because
Elon can stop pooping on the fact that
this bill is going to happen and it's
going to increase the debt. Elon's not
wrong. Yes, we should try to constrain
the debt, but deficit spending can lead
to economic growth. And frankly, if you
need something to be bullish about, not
only for Tesla stock, but also broadly,
Tax Foundation suggests that starting in
2026, our GDP will be 1.2 percentage
points higher because of the deficit
spending in the big beautiful bill. So
regardless of what we think about the
debt, the reality is we're basically
borrowing from the future to give to the
present and we're boosting our economy
at a pretty sensitive time in the
economy. Uh so that combined with once
the BBB passes uh Elon's negativity
towards Trump may wayne because Elon
will no longer have something to really
complain about with Trump. That's
probably a bullish catalyst or as we'd
like to say in the bullish catalyst.
Exactly. So BBB passing is actually a
positive catalyst for Tesla. Right. This
is great. Uh but in addition to that,
we've got a few other things that are
positive catalyst in the near term. The
uh September 30th EV credit expiration
of 7500 may be a bullish catalyst.
rationale here uh being you get some
reason to sort of rush in and buy uh a
new Tesla before the expiration of the
$7,500 credit, especially since the
Cybertruck is now included. Uh see, I
actually got the Cybertruck before the
$7,500 credit was included, but right
now you could get a $7,500 credit on the
Cybertruck, which is kind of cool. So to
me, this actually creates a pretty nice
catalyst for July, August, September
sales for Tesla. So Q3 could actually
get a nice little EV boost here because
of this EV credit uh uh you know,
expiration here. On top of that, you
have a Q4 December 31st uh residential
energy credit expiration. So this is
going to be that 30% in the big
beautiful bill. Well, in the inflation
reduction act and and previous acts
where basically you get 30% uh that you
can, you know, take as a tax credit when
you invest in home solar or home energy,
a lot of these residential energy
credits expire December 31st. So, I
think that creates some pull forward as
well for people to get their home energy
storage batteries or their solar
systems. Uh though that's also
questionable just because there are a
lot of homes that also have uh natural
gas lines that could benefit from just
using a Generrack generator. Uh I
personally think you know while while I
recognize Generrack generators aren't
they don't serve the same purpose as as
a battery for backup purposes you don't
have the sort of like home range anxiety
with a natural gas generator as you do
with a battery because the battery
you're waiting for that four hours of
usable solar that you're getting on a
regular basis. That's the average,
right? Generally, solar panels are rated
for about 4 to 4 and 1/2 hours of like
good energy deployment per day. When you
spread it out over the year, that makes
up for cloudy days as well. Yes, I
realize there are many days we have more
than four hours of light. I get it. Uh,
but functional direct energy solar, it's
usually rated for four to four and a
half hours. You could look it up. But
anyway, what's interesting is batteries
also help you reduce your uh higher peak
hour energy usage. So, if you fill up
your batteries with the sun around 10,
11, 12, 100 p.m., 2:00 p.m., and then
you utilize that energy in some of those
higher, more expensive energy periods
like 4, 5, 6, 7 p.m., those are usually
great opportunities for you to use your
batteries and offset some of the energy
you'd otherwise be using. And I think if
people make these calculations, they
might see, okay, if that credit's going
to go away, could be a good opportunity
to buy some Tesla solar uh walls, the
batteries, the power walls, as well as
solar panels before the end of the year.
I'm a big fan of solar and batteries.
Uh, and if I really wanted to be sort of
off-rid, I'd probably be solar batteries
and natural gas, right? I'd be in a
combination. Of course, technically
using natural gas, you're still on the
grid unless you were using propane. But
anyway, that's sort of just a more side
comment. So, I think these are actually
three really good catalysts here in the
short term. But there's some other
catalysts as well. Some of them not so
great, some of them more hopeful. Uh,
and so let's talk about those. The first
would be the Model Q. So, this is this
talk about potentially this newer Model
2ish, lowerpriced car that, you know,
there's there have been so many rumors
as Baron is talking about here that
we're going to get a Model 2 or a lowerc
cost Tesla, but we haven't seen it. We
haven't, you know, there there's been a
rumor we'll get like a twodoor version
of a Tesla or a hatchback. Although,
twodoor versions of cars aren't really
that popular in America. And Elon has
really dumped on the idea of a $25,000
car. So, I'm probably going to put this
as uh a maybe catalyst. We could call
it, you know, maybe we'll get that sort
of Model Q. Uh a newer, less expensive
vehicle would be a huge positive
catalyst for Tesla. Uh would be really,
really exciting. So, you've got a few
things that could really help us here.
the BBB passing the Q3 pull forward on
the electric vehicles, the Q4 pull
forward uh and then of course uh the
potential for Model 2, though I think
this is less likely. These are these are
good for positive catalysts. Uh and then
of course we have we have excitement
over uh robo taxi and uh Optimus, but
these are more I'd call them hype right
now. And that's not to be negative on
them in the future. just to be patient
and and realize that they're just more
in a hype cycle right now. The uh idea
about this sort of like write off
interest on car uh in 2026
uh thanks to the BBB. I don't actually
see this as that useful mostly because
when you go to tesla.com,
most of the cars they pitch indicate 0%
financing anyway. uh see 0% APR with FSD
the Cybertruck. This is actually a
little hard to read. Uh you really to
benefit most from this, you actually
ironically want a higher interest rate.
So most people seem to buy and finance
vehicles when they have the promotions,
which they don't always. See right here
you've got a 5.4 APR, which that helps.
I mean, if you put four grand down and
you finance this vehicle, you're
financing, let's see, cash, you're going
to finance, call it 40 $440ish,000 with
your taxes and stuff that you'll finance
$40,000.
We'll uh not advertise for a moment. Uh
it'll just make our numbers look a
little higher. Anyway, uh so we'll go
with a $40,000 loan quickly and just do
a quick little0554
interest rate, which rates might come
down. That'd be about $2,200 of savings
if uh you buy this in 2026 and it
qualifies for the Americanmade car loan
interest rate deduction. You're not
using this for business, just personal
write off. That might save you somewhere
around $6, $700 in actual cash, which is
like onetenth of the benefit you would
get from the $7,500 credit. So
