Tesla Second-Quarter Sales in California
Registrations of Tesla vehicles in California, the major market for the electric-car maker, tanked by almost 48% compared with a year earlier to 9,774 vehicles in Q2. Model 3 registrations in the state fell 63.6% to 5,951 vehicles. Total vehicle registrations in 23 states dropped by nearly 49% to 18,702 vehicles.

With Tesla stock price being around $1,500 level, experts believe there is room for further growth. Many have already raised their price targets for the company. For example, Piper Sandler analyst Alexander Potter believes that it may hit a $2,300 all-time high. Wedbush tech analyst Dan Ives also thinks that Tesla stock price will remain bullish. He predicts it could reach $2,000.
There is a question whether Tesla is a buy now or it needs to drop by at least $1,000 to attract investors. Some say that it is wise to invest in the company now as its production may go up more than 20-fold from the current 400,000 cars a year to 10 million vehicles. Tesla’s market cap that is nearing $300 billion shows investors’ optimism and strong interest in TSLA stock. Therefore, Tesla stands good chances of further growth.
