The Week

Tesla ended the week at $364.27, down 0.32%, lagging the S&P 500 by about 0.24 percentage points. Trading was choppy across the five sessions: it opened Monday at $359.78, dipped to a low of $354.05 on Tuesday, recovered through Wednesday and Thursday, reached a weekly high of $374.12 on Thursday, then pulled back on Friday to close at $364.27. Weekly amplitude was 5.58%. Average daily volume of 37.16 million shares ran about 9.5% above its 60-day median.

Key Events

Quarter delivery forecasts drew attention. Goldman Sachs cut its Q3 delivery forecast to 435,000 on Friday, while Barclays said the same figure could beat expectations, adding that fundamentals seemed an ‘afterthought’ to the AI story. On the product side, Roadster reservations reopened in Canada and the US on Saturday. Tesla joined Forum Mobility in building electric-truck charging stations in California, IMC Logistics added 50 Tesla Semis to its California fleet, and 144 Megapacks powered Australia’s first eight-hour grid battery. Optimus factory footage was called a turning point, though Figure’s humanoid made headlines for improving its performance in unknown environments.

Analyst Ratings

Forty-six institutions cover Tesla. Fifteen give it a buy and four an over, making 19 buy or over; 20 are neutral, two are under, two are sell, and three have no opinion. The consensus rating is buy, with a target price of $396.94, about 8.97% above the latest close. Target prices range from $125 to $600, a wide spread. Within the automobile manufacturers industry, Tesla ranks first, with more covering institutions than the industry mean of 10 and median of 4.

The Week Ahead

No Tesla earnings are scheduled next week. The US macro calendar includes the Richmond Fed composite index on Tuesday, EIA weekly crude and Cushing crude stockpiles on Wednesday, and a busy Thursday with initial jobless claims, the current account deficit, new home sales and EIA natural gas storage. Elevated yields and oil prices were in focus this week, and these releases may shape broader risk appetite. The split between Goldman Sachs and Barclays over Q3 deliveries also shifts attention to upcoming delivery data and prediction-market moves.

In Short

Tesla traded in a high range between roughly $354 and $374 this week, finishing slightly lower while the S&P 500 was nearly flat. Product and partnership news kept coming, from electric-truck charging and Semi orders to Roadster reservations and Optimus updates, but Goldman Sachs’ cut to its delivery forecast sat alongside Barclays’ more upbeat view. Analyst ratings skew toward buy and the consensus target sits about 9% above spot, while the latest session’s large-lot flow turned toward selling. The open question is how delivery figures and macro data this week will shape sentiment.
