Tesla rated Sell due to weak Q3 results and stalled growth despite beating expectations.

Tesla's Q3 results showed a superficial beat of expectations, but operating income fell 56% and free cash flow was boosted by working capital, masking underlying weakness. The company's growth has stalled, with revenue growing only 3.29% annually over three years and net income declining by 32.18% annually. A potential SpaceX merger poses a risk to the bearish outlook but would not resolve Tesla's automotive business challenges and could dilute shareholder value further. Overall, Tesla remains rated Sell due to extreme valuation and deteriorating fundamentals.

As of Oct 22, 2026 19:01 WIB, Tesla (TSLA) shares trade at USD 371.44 on Pluang, down 3.89% for the day. The stock shows significant selling pressure with 76% of order activity leaning Sell. Tesla's market cap stands at $1.53 trillion, reflecting its continued status as a major player despite recent operational challenges.
