TSLA Market Value Grows
Tesla’s market value has swelled by about 66% this year, with almost all of those gains coming since Donald Trump’s election win. The stock’s 38% rally in November marked its best monthly performance since January 2023 and its 10th best on record.
The rally has led investment bank Goldman Sachs (GS) to boost its price target on TSLA stock to $345 from 250 previously, joining several Wall Street firms that have lifted their price expectations and ratings on the stock. At the same time, Musk, who is the world’s richest person, has seen his net worth swell to $400 billion.
TSLA stock is now up 67% on the year, with all of that gain coming since the U.S. election.
