Tesla Motors (TSLA - Free Report) has been on its hottest streak, rising 20% in the initial week of 2020 and surpassing the $500 per share level for the first time in its history. This has boosted the company’s market cap to about $90 billion, which is nearly $5 billion more than that of General Motors (GM - Free Report) and Ford (F - Free Report) combined.
With the latest gain, Tesla has added about 103% in the past three months compared to 10.2% gain for the S&P 500. The rally began in October when the electric carmaker reported a surprise profit for the third quarter of 2019. Then, Tesla’s entrance into China and solid fourth-quarter delivery numbers published earlier this month led to bullishness on company’s growth.
Tesla has started delivering Model 3 cars made at its Shanghai factory to Chinese consumers in its cooling electric vehicle (EV) market. Meanwhile, the company produced a record 105,000 (86,958 Model 3 and 17,933 Model S and X) vehicles and delivered a record 112,000 (92,550 Model 3 and 19,450 Model S and X) vehicles. The number is above analysts’ expectation of 106,000 polled by FactSet. This has pushed 2019 total deliveries to 367,500 vehicles, up 50% from 2018 and in line with its guidance range of 360,000-400,000 vehicles (read: Tesla Reports Record Q4 Deliveries: ETFs to Ride the Surge).
Further, analysts’ optimism has bolstered the momentum in the stock. Oppenheimer has raised the price target on Tesla by nearly 60% to $612, citing that the company has advantages over its competitors, including battery technology, powertrain design and customer enthusiasm. The move is the latest in the string of upward revisions in the stock’s target price by analysts like Piper Sandler, Argus Research and Credit Suisse.
The growth levels for the electric carmaker are also impressive. The company is expected to see year-over-year growth of 79.7% for 2019 when it reports earnings later this month, and an enormous 2324% for 2020. Moreover, optimism over car demand will likely push the stock up to new heights this year (read: Electric Vehicles to Rev Up in 2020: Play These ETFs (Revised)).
Given the bullishness, it seems Tesla is a great candidate for a portfolio. The stock currently has a Zacks Rank #2 (Buy) and a Growth Score of A. It belongs to a top-ranked Zacks industry (in the top 44%). All these indicate continued solid trend in the near future.
