Why Cathie Wood Is Bullish on TSLA Stock

Tasha Keeney, an Ark analyst, said the following about the firm’s stance on Tesla:

“We’ve actually modeled the opportunity in Robotaxis in autonomy, and if you look at the future of Tesla vehicles that are capable of becoming robotaxi enabled, and earning a recurring revenue stream at what we think will be a software as a service like margins, this is an amazing potential for Tesla […] It’ll definitely be the highest return on investment per battery produced, as we’ve analyzed in our new report.”

Wood has even gone so far as to say that she expects TSLA stock to eventually reach $2,000 per share. For comparison, TSLA shares closed out trading on Wednesday at $153.75 each. That represents a roughly 1,200% upside for the stock.

TSLA stock is up 1.3% as of Thursday morning and is up 44% year-to-date (YTD).
