Wedbush’s Dan Ives raises Tesla price target to $400, says Trump win is a ‘gamechanger’

Shares of Tesla are set to soar under a second Trump presidency, according to widely followed analyst Dan Ives of Wedbush. Ives reiterated his outperform rating and hiked his 12-month price target for the electric vehicle manufacturer to $400 from $300. This new forecast signals about 25% upside from Friday’s close. Ives cited Donald Trump’s victory for a second presidential term as a catalyst for the price target change. CEO Elon Musk has been a strong advocate for the president-elect. “We believe the Trump White House win will be a gamechanger for the autonomous and AI story for Tesla and Musk over the coming years,” Ives wrote.

for the overall electric vehicle industry, since it’s more likely that rebates and tax incentives will be pulled. But this, coupled with more stringent ******** tariffs, could actually provide another advantage for Tesla. “Tesla has the scale and scope that is unmatched in the EV industry and this dynamic could give Musk and Tesla a clear competitive advantage in a non-EV subsidy environment starting in 2025, coupled by likely higher China tariffs that would continue to push away cheaper ******** EV players (BYD, Nio, etc.) from flooding the US market over the coming years,” Ives added. Shares of Tesla have climbed around 39% in 2024. TSLA YTD mountain TSLA YTD chart
