We now think our previous concerns regarding Tesla's financial performance amid macro weakness and price cuts are factored into the stock for the most part. Tesla's stock is down ~15% over the past week, underperforming the S&P 500 (SP500) by 10%; over the past three months, the stock is down roughly 18%, underperforming the S&P 500 by around 11%. We remain more cautious about the auto industry in 2H23 due to the auto correction, macro weakness, and end demand weakness from China - the largest car market with a lot of market power over electric vehicles ("EVs").</p><p>To understand the significance of the slower-than-expected recovery in China, it must be noted that China's EV sales "share is currently double the global average." We understand investor concern over the company's exposure to weakness in China at ~23% of total sales. We're more optimistic now because we think the demand weakness has been priced into the stock at current levels. We think Tesla is better positioned than the competition, including NIO Inc. (NIO), Ford (F), and General Motors (GM), to recover delivery growth toward 2024. We now see a more attractive risk-reward profile for the stock into 2024 after aggressive pricing supported by cost reductions.</p><p>The following graph outlines Tesla's stock performance over the past three months against the S&P 500.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/28cc5634e8cfb7b8244babef1d08b84f\" alt=\"YCharts\" title=\"YCharts\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"450\"/><span>YCharts</span></p><h3 id=\"id_2703470193\">Negatives Priced In; Better Horizon Ahead</h3><p>Our upgrade is partially driven by how negative Musk was on the Q3 2023 earnings call; the stock dropped over 12% after the call due to investor disappointment in the challenges to volume production with the Cybertruck and the longer outlook for positive cash flow for the vehicle coupled with persisting macro weakness and contracting margins. Musk noted:</p><blockquote><p>"I'm worried about the high-interest rate environment we're in... If interest rates remain high or if they go even higher, it's that much harder for people to buy the car."</p></blockquote><p>We continue to be cautious of the auto industry in the near term, as we think a correction is underway and see it reflected in the analog and power management industry on the semi-front. Our upgrade is driven by our belief that Tesla's economic moat and position in the EV industry will enable it to outperform the peer group into 2024.</p><p>We think our negative thesis of Tesla struggling to achieve financial outperformance played out and expect stabilization towards 2H24. This was the first quarter since July 2019 that Tesla missed on both top and bottom lines; the company reported revenue of $23.35B, missing by $790M, and Non-GAAP EPS of $0.66, missing by $0.07. Our forecast of shrinking margins has also been unfolding, with the company reporting an operating margin of 7.6% this quarter.

We now think our previous concerns regarding Tesla's financial performance amid macro weakness and price cuts are factored into the stock for the most part. Tesla's stock is down ~15% over the past week, underperforming the S&P 500 (SP500) by 10%; over the past three months, the stock is down roughly 18%, underperforming the S&P 500 by around 11%. We remain more cautious about the auto industry in 2H23 due to the auto correction, macro weakness, and end demand weakness from China - the largest car market with a lot of market power over electric vehicles ("EVs").</p><p>To understand the significance of the slower-than-expected recovery in China, it must be noted that China's EV sales "share is currently double the global average." We understand investor concern over the company's exposure to weakness in China at ~23% of total sales. We're more optimistic now because we think the demand weakness has been priced into the stock at current levels. We think Tesla is better positioned than the competition, including NIO Inc. (NIO), Ford (F), and General Motors (GM), to recover delivery growth toward 2024. We now see a more attractive risk-reward profile for the stock into 2024 after aggressive pricing supported by cost reductions.</p><p>The following graph outlines Tesla's stock performance over the past three months against the S&P 500.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/28cc5634e8cfb7b8244babef1d08b84f\" alt=\"YCharts\" title=\"YCharts\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"450\"/><span>YCharts</span></p><h3 id=\"id_2703470193\">Negatives Priced In; Better Horizon Ahead</h3><p>Our upgrade is partially driven by how negative Musk was on the Q3 2023 earnings call; the stock dropped over 12% after the call due to investor disappointment in the challenges to volume production with the Cybertruck and the longer outlook for positive cash flow for the vehicle coupled with persisting macro weakness and contracting margins. Musk noted:</p><blockquote><p>"I'm worried about the high-interest rate environment we're in... If interest rates remain high or if they go even higher, it's that much harder for people to buy the car."</p></blockquote><p>We continue to be cautious of the auto industry in the near term, as we think a correction is underway and see it reflected in the analog and power management industry on the semi-front. Our upgrade is driven by our belief that Tesla's economic moat and position in the EV industry will enable it to outperform the peer group into 2024.</p><p>We think our negative thesis of Tesla struggling to achieve financial outperformance played out and expect stabilization towards 2H24. This was the first quarter since July 2019 that Tesla missed on both top and bottom lines; the company reported revenue of $23.35B, missing by $790M, and Non-GAAP EPS of $0.66, missing by $0.07. Our forecast of shrinking margins has also been unfolding, with the company reporting an operating margin of 7.6% this quarter.

Additionally, we think the model upgrades will help push the deliveries higher.
