Tesla shares rose 5% during today's session after ARK Invest lifted its price target for the company's shares to $ 3,000! The fund points out that Tesla is currently the leader in autonomous car technology. Interestingly, despite the increase in the price target, ARK expects lower car deliveries from Tesla by 17% compared to previous forecasts. According to the fund, the price of $ 3,000 should be reached by 2025, which would increase the valuation to around $ 3 trillion. In contrast, "bearish" scenario assumes that the price would rise to $ 1,500 by then, in the absence of significant progress in autonomous car technology. Either way, this is twice the current share price. Nevertheless, the model on which the price target was calculated met with much criticism from many American analysts.
