Investing.com - Wedbush maintained its Outperform rating and $500 price target on Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA) in a research note issued Friday. The target represents the high end of analyst estimates, which range from $115 to $500. According to InvestingPro data, Tesla currently trades at a P/E ratio of 184, reflecting high growth expectations.
The research firm cited the importance of CEO Elon Musk’s commitment to remain with the electric vehicle maker through 2030, following incentives approved by Tesla’s Board of Directors.
Wedbush noted that these incentives were largely included in a three-step plan mentioned in early July, when the Board intervened to secure Musk’s long-term commitment to the company.
The research firm emphasized that with this groundwork in place, Musk can now accelerate Tesla’s current trajectory and capitalize on upcoming opportunities in the automotive sector.
Wedbush described this development as "a critical next step" for Tesla as the company enters "one of the most important stages of its growth cycle," particularly regarding its autonomous driving technology and robotics initiatives.

In Germany, Tesla evacuated part of its plant due to a battery pack fire, with no injuries or environmental damage reported.
