Bulls
Tesla has the potential to disrupt multiple industries with its technology for EVs, AVs, batteries, and humanoid robots.
Bears
Traditional automakers and new entrants are investing heavily in EV development, which will result in declining deliveries. This will force Tesla to cut prices due to increased competition, eroding profit margins.
