Are you a business or investing publication if you don’t find a way to mention Elon Musk these days? We’re taking a slightly different tact this week - no Twitter.

Morgan Stanley's Research Note on Tesla, Introduction to the 'Giga Press'
Last week was a big one for Tesla. It became just the 6th American company to reach the $1 trillion market cap and did it with far less revenue than any of the 5 that have come before it. The market expects big things from Tesla. In this research report released last week, Morgan Stanley upped their price target from $900 to $1,200 per share (when released shares were around ~$1,000) and made the case that this price is based on a conservative case (in particular, half the company’s growth target, constrained growth in China and no improvements in autonomous driving).5th Nov, 2021
