After conducting checks, Pacific Crest analyst Brad Erickson says that orders for Tesla's Model X have improved, and he expects the company's Q3 deliveries to be "solid." However, he believes that the company is offering "aggressive" discounts on Model 3 vehicles, and he thinks the company "faces overall ASP and margin risk," along with a questionable long-term demand outlook. Erickson remains cautious on the stock and keeps a Sector Weight rating on the shares.

Morgan Stanley noted that Bloomberg reported earlier this week that Contemporary Amperex Technology Co. Ltd., or CATL, is working with Tesla on faster charging batteries, which follows news that CATL is supplying machinery to Tesla's Giga Nevada factory. China's CATL is effectively barred from selling into the U.S. directly, but is able to license battery tech to partners and charge a royalty fee, noted the analyst, who notes that the U.S. is an under-penetrated EV market in need of high quality, cheap battery tech and that China is a highly penetrated EV market with an oversupply of batteries. The firm, which believes a Tesla-CATL partnership "could be a game changer" for the U.S. electric vehicle market, has an Overweight rating and $320 price target on Tesla shares.

Tesla CEO Elon Musk told staff in an internal memo to give buyers a "short test ride" to demonstrate the company's Full Self-Driving technology, now a "hard requirement" in North America, Bloomberg's Edward Ludlow reports. Workers will also have to perform checks on any vehicles returned from service. "I know this will slow down the delivery process, but it is nonetheless a hard requirement," Musk said in the memo, adding that "This is very important." Reference Link

Citi analyst Itay Michaeli lowered the firm's price target on Tesla to $196 from $224 and keeps a Neutral rating on the shares. Ahead of Tesla's Q1 delivery release, the analyst lowered estimates to reflect recent data points. The firm's Q1 delivery estimate goes to 429,9000 from 473,300. The Q1 setup for Tesla "looks tough on aggressive consensus estimates," the analyst tells investors in a research note. In recent weeks, consensus estimates have come down, but March data points have also disappointed, says Citi. It believes Sheet estimates are still looking too high, not only for 2024 but also 2025.

After this morning's collapse of the Francis Scott Key Bridge in Maryland closed the Port of Baltimore, JPMorgan economist Michael Feroli noted that the port ranks 17th among U.S. ports in tonnage handled, but ranks first for light vehicle imports and is also an important coal export terminal. However, the firm's initial assessment is that this development will "likely only have minimal implications for vehicle inflation" given that many more vehicles are imported over land from Canada and Mexico and that vessels are already being diverted to other East Coast ports. Publicly traded automakers include Ford (F), General Motors (GM), Honda (HMC), Mercedes-Benz Group (DDAIF), Nissan (NSANY), Stellantis (STLA), Tesla (TSLA), Toyota (TM) and Volkswagen (VWAGY).
