Transcripts
guys Tesla is up
51% in the last one month that is right
51% when I see Twitter back to talking
about how these are the stocks you own
forever and Tesla's one of them again
after we had the flip Mo what was it
before before when when Tesla was at
4:15 two and a half years ago it was
Tesla stocked forever then what happened
then uh Elon went to buy Twitter now X
if I remember correctly correct um um
there's a lot of news that drove this
stock around yep and news nothing
fundamental no that's right fact
everything fundamental is getting better
and better and better at
4:15 to now
262 revenues almost doubled up almost
100% yeah I'd like to just show two are
you talking about 2021 yeah the peak of
414 which was on yep November 4th 2021
53.82 billion in Revenue in 2021 the
last 12 months last 12 months 94.7
billion guys it's like 90% increase in
Revenue this is proof absolute proof
that news follows a stock price I've
said before I'll say it again there will
be a time when people say you're stupid
to own Tesla that all the Bulls who sit
there and say I love Tesla I would never
sell Tesla will have their reason for
selling Tesla Tesla will be a much
better company in the future than it is
today when everybody's saying you got to
own Tesla forever and that's the beauty
of of investing it's the emotional part
emotion drives investing what I'm trying
to teach is this process of looking at
it and saying wait a second if the
fundamentals are getting better and it
made sense at X price and now the price
has fallen why would I not buy more but
what usually happens out there and
what's going to make you different as an
investor is you're going to realize that
this is just a ticker price what matters
is the fundamentals of the company the
revenue the profit and as long as the
revenue and profit are growing and the
business is getting better as the stock
Falls you should want more of it now
making the initial purchase is important
because you have to sit there and
realize that every investment's the
present value evolve future cash flow
and now Mo on that very same Twitter I'm
getting people saying Paul you don't
understand the power of this company
being a tech company FSD is huge now FSD
is huge for those you don't know that's
full self-driving and they're charging
currently $99 per month well what do you
think the gross margin is on this night
by the way gross margin means for every
doll every unit they sell how much of
this is profit before overhead and all
that stuff 70% I would guess it's 70 or
80% let's call it 75% so every extra
unit they sell they're getting
$75 probably per month in extra added
profit okay so times 12 months equals
$900 per year in extra cash flow all
right so every extra unit they sell if
you apply a 20 multiple to this it adds
$188,000 in market cap right so we had
$75 month in profit times 12 months 900
bucks times 20 PE equals $188,000 in
value for every time they sell a unit
now to generate the Kathy Wood idea of
trillions of dollars in value driven by
their technology right now they're 500
no they're more than that 700 billion
dollar company let's call it one
trillion 900 900 3 billion I'm sorry so
one trillion dollar market cap to get
to5 trillion that's $ trillion do in
value divide that by the 18,000 per car
they sell FSD on What's the total value
they have to be in
222 million cars jeez oh man okay before
I get into how reasonable this number is
I just want you to understand this this
is very very important for understanding
investment the story about FSD is
wonderful the story about Tesla is
wonderful I'm not against Tesla I have a
cyber truck on order I had a model X
plaid I'm not against Tesla I love Tesla
I think Elon Musk is brilliant but I
separate stock from the from the actual
company I don't know where Tesla stock
is going in the next few months I don't
know where it's going in the future my
job here what I'm trying to teach you is
that you have to look at Tesla and say
can I pay a reasonable price for the
company today that makes sense on this
company I'm only focusing on FSD Mo 50
million cars a year are sold worldwide
okay now remember our goal is to sell is
to have 222 million
cars actively buying FSD there are
283.15 a year on F
SD so that's the issue here guys we're
in the US where the average car is like
40 the average new car is like
$40,000 okay in the US we sell 15 call
it 20 million new cars a year I don't
think it's t 20 million but it's called
it 20 million that means it would take
11 years of 100% of the cars on brand
new cars selling let me said there say
well Paul some people are going to buy
for their you I get it it was all brand
new cars because Buick just sign a deal
with Tesla about putting they they're
talking about it it's very close in
talks about putting FSD in their cars
wonderful but it has to be put into
there I don't know what the other
technology will be but let's assume
every single car for the next 11 years
they'd finally get there that 220 sorry
it was 50 million cars not $50
million this is what I'm looking at
going it's going to take 11 years to get
that covered assuming that every single
car correct it's like best case scenario
now if 50 million cars are sold
worldwide let's say 25% of them which is
an egregious amount a percent by this
12.5 million what are we at 18 years or
so of cars before they get there my
point about this isn't to say it's going
to take longer my point is to say it's
probably not likely and in that time
what's going to happen with technology
are other people going to come out with
other versions of FSD maybe maybe not
there was map quest for a long time then
it was Google Maps and now it's Apple
Maps right I look at the saying guys FSD
has a great future but to just add $1
billion doll in free cash flow to to to
Tesla one billion in free cash flow
would be20 billion in value at a 20 PE
times 20 remember $188,000 per car in
value it takes 1.1 million cars having
the
software 1.1 million why do I keep
putting dollar signs here I'm so used to
it guys this year they're hoping toell
1.8 million cars now is there a lot of
growth potential in this absolutely but
remember people said before Oh Tesla's
going to grow like guys they're
struggling to even hit this 1.8 million
the stock is up a ton and guess what
happened they missed their deliveries
they didn't even hit their deliveries
guys this 51% run up is a combination of
many things I think one of them is short
sellers having to bail now maybe I'm
wrong because now I read today like
short selling has gone up to 3.7% of
shares outstanding are now short on
Tesla wow the point I'm trying to make
about all this data is guys there's a
great story but as professor aswa says a
story without numbers is a fairy tale
numbers without a story is an Excel
sheet you got to couple them together
the story of
FSD is a wonderful story it's a great
story the numbers on FSD not so much and
how much is the FSD price Fallen oh yeah
it used to be what $12,000,000 then it
dropped it was a one time 12000 y then
it dropped to 10 then it dropped to 999
bucks a month I I don't know guys the
same point
like I probably if if the software
wasn't perfect I probably wouldn't pay
$99 a month even if I had a Tesla but
look at this this is just autopilot this
is not even full self-driving Tesla
vehicles using autopilot
technology look at how many millions of
miles driven per accident it's only
gotten better
7.63 million miles driven before an
accident when the US average is 6
670,000 miles this is 12 times safer now
I also saw some other report that said
Tesla's had the most accidents from
November 2022 to November 2023 I don't
know what that was about but this is a
report here and it says Tesla vehicle is
not using autopilot it was still better
by 50% than the US average but how much
better using autopilot guys the
autopilot the full self driving it is
absolutely awesome I love hearing about
it is a great tool but don't overpay for
that now guys this is exactly how our
community talks about stocks it is not
just a ticker price we have to look Way
Beyond the ticker price there is
something behind that price there's a
value and our goal and the goal I'm
trying to teach here is whatever you're
looking investing in I want you to have
a new way of thinking and that way of
thinking is there's a value and there's
a price I want to buy when value is
significantly higher than prices and
that's why this whole entire software is
made but if you watched our channel
before you've probably noticed that we
have limited daily spots for this
community and software and the reason
for that is because the software as it
exists today includes everything we have
to offer for stocks retirement in real
estate as you can tell from all these
tools up here it helps you in all those
areas now we are making some changes
behind the scenes so that in the near
future that offer is going away as we've
been getting feedback from our community
members people have expressed that they
want us to focus on specific aspects of
everything money for them they want to
focus on what applies to them in that
moment they don't want to have too many
options like the Cheesecake Factory they
want to say this is what I'm focused on
right now so if you've been watching for
a while you'll remember that I built
this software selfishly for myself
that's how the software started people
ask how do I get that software and it
was always built for my team and I so we
could use it to constantly make the
right decisions for Real Estate stocks
and retirement but as the channel is
grown and our community is grown it
obviously has to become a lot less about
me and more about how I can can better
serve you and the community members so
the good news is we have not made those
changes yet so if you go there today and
join you'll be grandfathered in for life
with all of these tools 100% of them
you'll get them for life no matter what
and I'm telling this now because you
still have that time so go click at the
link below before we make these changes
go do it right now if you sign up today
you'll be able to keep all the tools
even after we make those changes and
trust me this will be the best decision
you've made all here that is what's key
about investing with like-minded people
there are people in our community who
absolutely love Tesla and think it's
awesome and I would tell people out
there if you own Tesla stock and bought
it real cheap it's hard to decide should
you stay in or stay out is there a lot
of potential for Tesla of course but
right now the numbers look like a car
company 95 billion in Revenue $13
billion in profit it's better than the
average car company don't get me wrong
but you have to sit there and realize
that over 90% of its Revenue comes from
I think it was 83 84% Mo remember we did
the numbers like wait a second the other
services included like used car sales
and I was like wait a second it's like
90% plus cars
guys if I'm a high school athlete and
I'm a top prospect I'm not a
professional athlete yet don't pay me
professional athlete money let Tesla
become the software business that you
think they're going to become valued in
there you have to account for that but
remember you got to sit there and put
some sort of value to that future and
the chance of it happening so let's see
what analysts are saying about
this Mo do you see this big time growth
in EPS according analysts almost
tripling oh yeah I was surprised to see
this a drop this year of 20% but going
to
$743 in the next four or five years
Revenue doubling revenue dou from 100 to
28 billion you know what the interesting
part is Mo if this 28 billion was all
software and there were like Microsoft
that had 30% bottom line it'd be a $60
billion business which is 15 PE and
today's numbers guys that's what I mean
people are overpaying for the future
they're overpaying for the future the
average car company sells for between
0.5 and one times Revenue Tesla's
currently selling for almost 10 times
Revenue this is Microsoft money
Microsoft's like 13 but fair value is
probably around 10 times revenue or
something lower than that people are
valuing this as a software company 100%
without a car component if you don't
agree with me that it's a car component
company I don't to tell you if you used
to think that and go wait a second those
numbers are adding up I think there's
hope for you I do think there's value to
Tesla being a software business the
question is what's that value so that's
when you pull up stock analyzer tool Mo
I'm GNA pull up the last time I did
Tesla so I remember when I did this one
and I did a a low middle and a
ridiculous high so we can go through
that if you want Oh Revenue growth same
numbers 720 and 60% Revenue growth by
the way only did five years though
profit margin 820 and 35 this makes it
more software like yep right so we're
sitting there saying listen they crush
it next five years and guys they're not
going to have this kind of profit margin
20% re I mean I don't well maybe it will
next five years maybe it will PE I did
18 25 and 30 what about you I did the
same numbers okay and a 9% desire return
because that's the market return 9 or
10% let's put what's the market value
but remember you need to have a higher
when you're doing this s from the
software you need to put a higher
desired return for a larger margin of
safety you need margin of safety because
the future is unknown and we're humans
we make mistake you've got to be able to
sit there and factor in what mistakes am
I making in all of these assumptions you
are making mistakes we are I am I'm
making a ton of mistakes the question is
what's my margin of safety but here's
what's interesting let's hit the analyze
button by the way the fiveyear analysis
was for Kathy Wood's 2030 prediction
correct guys 4 on the low side 2,000 on
the high side with 60% Revenue growth
247 in the middle so if you want to see
my reaction video to Kathy Woods
egregious price target for Tesla watch
this next video thank you for your time
