To The Moon

$Tesla Motors(TSLA)$ $Lemonade, Inc.(LMND)$  $Alphabet(GOOGL)$  22Jan26 ET 🇺🇸 | 23Jan26 NZT 🇳🇿

🧠 Structural Reality Check

I’m anchoring on what the chart confirms, not the noise. $TSLA structure remains intact on higher timeframes despite volatility. This still reads as consolidation within trend rather than structural failure.

• Weekly structure remains constructive

• 21 week EMA continues to act as the dominant trend anchor

• $422–$435 remains a critical structural pivot and decision zone

• 4H compression suggests volatility expansion ahead

• All time highs remain the upside magnet if momentum and flow rebuild

🧩 Technical Context That Matters

I’m seeing mean reversion behaviour inside a broader bullish framework. As long as Tesla holds above medium-term trend support, the primary structure remains valid. The chart continues to argue digestion, not breakdown.

🚗 Robotaxi and Unsupervised Autonomy, From Promise to Deployment

Tesla has officially launched unsupervised Robotaxi operations in Austin with no safety monitor in-car as of 22Jan26, marking a material shift from experimental autonomy to real-world execution.

• Tesla completed a 10,000 mile unsupervised FSD drive with zero interventions, reinforcing system maturity

• Supervised FSD approval targeted next month in Europe, with China expected on a similar timeline

• Arizona ride hailing permit secured, expanding Robotaxi operational footprint

• Musk signals rollout scaling through 2026, with early production ramps slow before acceleration

🧠 FSD Hardware Roadmap and AI Compute Acceleration

Tesla is compressing AI innovation cycles into 9 month hardware iterations, accelerating autonomy and robotics compute.

• AI5 enters production Q3 2026, targeting near-perfect autonomy and advanced Optimus reasoning

• AI6 planned for 2027, expanding Optimus and data centre compute

• Tesla is reviving Dojo with Dojo 3 chips to support AI training

• Potential SpaceX orbital data centre integration expands Tesla’s long-term compute moat

📊 Insurance Market Validation, A Third-Party Endorsement of FSD Risk Reduction

Morgan Stanley reiterates Equalweight with a $425 PT, highlighting Lemonade’s autonomous insurance model tied to Tesla FSD miles as a meaningful external validation of autonomy performance.

This is not marketing, it is insurance industry risk pricing signalling growing confidence in Tesla’s real-world safety data.

• Premium discounts of up to 50% for miles driven under FSD

• Insurance pricing reflects lower actuarial risk for autonomous driving, not subjective optimism

• Lower premiums create an economic adoption flywheel: cheaper insurance → more FSD usage → more driving data → improved safety → further premium reductions

• This reframes FSD from a speculative feature into a measurable, monetisable and economically credible platform

• Broader Street PT range remains wide at $25–$600, reflecting autonomy upside versus EV margin pressure

🤖 Optimus and Cybercab, Production Reality With Ramp Risk

Optimus remains a transformational opportunity, with Musk warning early production will be agonisingly slow due to all-new components and manufacturing processes.

• Mass production audit completed for Optimus v3

• $685M supplier order finalised with Tier-1 Chinese partners

• Tariffs may increase Optimus costs by ~25%

• Meaningful production now shifting toward late 2026, with public sales likely 2027

• Factory deployments already underway for simple tasks, expanding in complexity over time

External conviction on upside potential continues to grow. Jason Calacanis argues Optimus could unlock a $10 trillion market, eclipsing automotive manufacturing by transforming global labour efficiency, productivity and AI-driven automation. The long-term thesis frames humanoid robotics as a platform-scale industry, not a side project, with revenue potential that could ultimately dwarf Tesla’s vehicle business if execution scales.

📉 Demand Reality and Competitive Pressure

I’m not ignoring demand risk.

• California registrations down 11.4% YoY

• Global Tesla deliveries fell roughly 9% in 2025

• Analysts forecast about 13% revenue growth in 2026 following an estimated 3% decline

• Competitive pressure from BYD and global EV pricing remains a headwind

This reinforces why Tesla’s valuation increasingly hinges on software, autonomy, Robotaxi, insurance economics, AI compute and robotics, not vehicle unit growth alone.

📅 Upcoming Earnings, Volatility Catalyst and Fundamental Reset

Tesla reports Q4 earnings on 28Jan26 after hours, a major volatility and narrative catalyst.

Consensus expectations:

• Revenue: $24.78B, down ~9.12% YoY

• EBIT: $1.26B, down ~53.51% YoY

• Adjusted EPS: $0.44, down ~41.94% YoY

Margin pressure remains driven by automotive pricing, partially offset by Energy and software mix gains.

📊 Last Quarter Financial Context

• Revenue: $28.10B

• Gross margin: 17.99%

• Net profit: $1.37B

• Adjusted EPS: $0.50

Segment revenue:

• Automotive: $21.21B

• Services and Other: $3.48B

• Energy Generation and Storage: $3.42B, supported by strong Megapack deployments

🔋 Energy Generation and Storage, Megapack as Margin Anchor

Energy is emerging as Tesla’s most promising near-term growth engine.

• Utility-scale Megapack deployments driving backlog visibility

• Segment margins running above automotive margins

• Data centre and grid demand supporting sustained growth

• Potential for mid-to-high 20% segment gross margins to cushion automotive volatility

🧠 Software and Autonomy Monetisation, EPS Leverage

Software remains central to Tesla’s margin and valuation narrative.

• FSD subscription adoption offers high-margin EPS leverage

• Investors watching attach rates, churn, and revenue recognition cadence

• Even modest growth in paid FSD users can disproportionately lift EPS

• Tesla benefits from roughly 14M daily training miles, creating a durable data moat versus Waymo and Cruise

⚠️ Key Risks I’m Monitoring

• Cybercab and Optimus production delays

• Regulatory scrutiny and autonomy safety metrics

• Camera-only FSD performance concerns

• Tariff-driven cost inflation

• Macro pressure, interest rates, EV tax credit shifts

• Execution credibility versus long-term vision

🧬 Strategic View

I see Tesla evolving into a software-defined autonomy platform and robotics company, not just an automaker. The story is not the quarterly print. The story is whether FSD, Robotaxi, AI compute, Energy and Optimus scale into durable, high-margin, recurring revenue engines that materially expand Tesla’s total addressable market over the next decade.

The chart still matters. The data still matters. The roadmap matters more.
