Why Tesla's valuation is hard to read as Musk's EV empire falters

Prickly billionaire Elon Musk is at a crossroads with Tesla (TSLA) — and investors are shouldering the outsized risk. "I think we are in the transition phase, so it's a very critical phase for Tesla at the moment," Gradient Investments' Lisa Schreiber said on Yahoo Finance's Opening Bid (watch above). On July 23, Tesla reported much weaker second quarter earnings compared to a year ago. During the earnings call, Musk cautioned about headwinds and shared that ride-hailing and autonomous features will be a key focus for the company going forward. Shares fell directly after the earnings announcement and closed down 8.2% on Thursday. Tesla remains an innovator, with robots and AI in its portfolio. Its EV business, however, is sharply declining as competition rises and backlash grows against Musk's politics. The expiration of a $7,500 federal credit for EVs won't help matters, either. "When we look at valuation, investors do not know exactly how to value [Tesla]. Is it an EV maker? Is it more than that? The thing is, it's not just an EV play anymore," Schrieber said. "But it's also not a robotaxi [and] robot company already. So we have struggles here." To Schrieber's point, Tesla's stock trades more like a hot tech player trying to take on juggernauts like Nvidia (NVDA). Shares trade at 161 times the estimated forward price to earnings. (Nvidia, with much stronger growth, trades around 55 times.) Ford (F), a pure-play automaker, trades at 9.6 times. Meanwhile, some perceive Tesla as a company that isn't sure what it wants to be when it grows up. The innovation around autonomous driving is noteworthy, but the waiting can make even the most patient investor antsy. "Especially with Tesla, we have to be a little bit careful," Schreiber said, noting that Musk has a history of huge promises but delayed launches. The robotaxi, for instance, launched this past June in Austin, Texas. William Blair analysts Jed Dorsheimer and Mark Shooter, who rate Tesla's stock at Market Perform, noted that rival company Google's (GOOG) Waymo robotaxi "represents a six-year head start." "We think the training wheels will get taken off quickly and the pace at which robotaxi scales will surprise the upside," the pair wrote. "Although maybe not to half of Americans by the end of the year." During Tesla's earnings call, Musk also discussed humanoid robots, AI, and their integration into the vehicle fleet, calling the company's cars "essentially a four-wheeled robot." "Optimus is a robot with arms and legs," he said. "So the same principles that apply to optimizing AI inference of the car applied to Optimus because they're both really robots in different forms." If Musk and Co. can deliver, investors like Schreiber will likely be among the first in line to celebrate, but for the time being, they are content to watch and wait. "I think we have to be a little bit careful here," she said. "For us to be able to be a buyer here, we would need to see some foot on the ground and we would need to see some realization first."Grace Williams is a writer for Yahoo Finance.

Why Is Wall Street So Bearish on Rivian? There's 1 Key Reason.

Key Points EV stocks are facing intense regulatory changes. Several key government subsidies are set to expire. Rivian's new models may experience rocky launches. 10 stocks we like better than Rivian Automotive › The average price target from Wall Street analysts for Rivian Automotive (NASDAQ: RIVN) stock is just $14.72. That implies just 5% in potential upside over the next 12 months. One analyst even downgraded the stock to a "sell," predicting 50% in potential downside. Why is Wall Street so bearish? There's one obvious cause. Expect EV stocks to feel the pain It's not a good time to be an electric car stock. The U.S. government is preparing to eliminate several key subsidies. The electric vehicle (EV) buyer tax credit -- which can effectively reduce the cost of buying an EV by as much as $7,500 -- is set to expire in September. Federal automotive regulatory credits, which have provided the industry with hundreds of millions of extra profit, will also cease to be of any value this year since penalties for non-compliance will be eliminated. Rivian's new mass market vehicles -- the R2, R3, and R3X -- were all expected to qualify for federal tax credits. The company also earned roughly $300 million in the last quarter of 2024 alone from selling automotive regulatory credits. While much of that income stream will remain from state sources, federal sources will likely be non-existent in 2026. Both of these factors will cause direct and immediate pain for Rivian, but also for competitors like Tesla and Lucid Group. Investors in any of these companies should be paying close attention. When analysts at Guggenheim downgraded Rivian stock in July, they cited "reduced confidence in demand and the impact of weaker electric vehicle (EV) incentives." This comes right as Rivian attempts to market its new models, all of which are expected to debut under $50,000. Sales should still spike due to these product introductions. But expect the sales launch to be weaker than previously anticipated. Long term, Rivian shares remain promising. However, the path to renewed growth just got a bit longer.

Best money market account rates today, July 27, 2025 (best account provides 4.41% APY)

Find out how much you could earn with today's money market account rates. The Federal Reserve cut its target rate three times in 2024. So deposit rates — including money market account (MMA) rates — have started falling. It's more important than ever to compare MMA rates and ensure you earn as much as possible on your balance. Overview of money market account rates today The national average money market account rate stands at 0.62%, according to the FDIC. Even so, some of the top accounts are currently offering rates of 4% APY and up. Since these rates may not be around much longer, consider opening a money market account now to take advantage of today's high rates. Here's a look at some of the top MMA rates available today:Additionally, the table below features some of the best savings and money market account rates available today from our verified partners. How much interest can I earn with a money market account? The amount of interest you can earn from a money market account depends on the annual percentage rate (APY). This is a measure of your total earnings after one year when considering the base interest rate and how often interest compounds (money market account interest typically compounds daily). Say you put $1,000 in an MMA at the average interest rate of 0.64% with daily compounding. At the end of one year, your balance would grow to $1,006.42 — your initial $1,000 deposit, plus just $6.42 in interest. Now let's say you choose a high-yield money market account that offers 4% APY instead. In this case, your balance would grow to $1,040.81 over the same period, which includes $40.81 in interest. The more you deposit in a money market account, the more you stand to earn. If we took our same example of a money market account at 4% APY, but deposit $10,000, your total balance after one year would be $10,408.08, meaning you'd earn $408.08 in interest. ​​
