Piper Jaffray Predicts The Electric Car Maker, Tesla $TSLA, Will Thrive In China; Reiterates Overweight

Piper Jaffray is out with some interesting notes today. The investment firm reiterates its overweight rating for Tesla shares, predicting the electric car maker will thrive in China’s auto market. Piper notes,”China could eventually be Tesla’s biggest source of revenue,” the firm’s analyst writes.

“If Tesla sidesteps [its] obstacles by making EVs locally, the company may be well-positioned to build on its recent successes … The company was wise to delay investment, but once these JV-related policy details are finalized, we expect Tesla to announce its China strategy in relatively short order.”

The analyst reaffirmed his $386 price target for Tesla shares, representing 12 percent upside to Tuesday’s close.

    Tesla’s success is in large part due to crooked and dumb politicians forcing the public to subsidize Tesla’s EV that have larger carbon foot print than gasoline cars. Does China have as many dumb and crooked politicians per capita as California? Probably.

      Yep, take away the tax incentives and the investors will hold an empty bag. And what is Musk spending his money on? Space and boring tunnels for a “vacuum car”.
