On Friday, Tesla climbed as much as 8.4%. That's the 11th straight day of gains as the automaker's massive rally continues into the new year. The billionaire investor Chamath Palihapitiya said Thursday that Tesla's market cap stood to triple from its already lofty levels. Investor Michael Burry told Tesla bulls in a tweet on Thursday that they should enjoy the rally "while it lasts."
Business Insider reports that Elon Musk is now the richest man in the world. His net worth has skyrocketed to $187 billion. He is the CEO of two companies, Tesla and SpaceX, and the founder of three more. He's also been married three times and has triplets and twins. He recently had another baby with his girlfriend, the musician Grimes.
Tesla’s issues with faulty production and inconsistent quality extend outside the U.S. market: As first reported by Bloomberg, the automaker is set to recall close to 30,000 of its imported Model S and Model X cars from China, citing problems surrounding the vehicle’s suspension systems. Per a statement from China’s State Administration for Market Regulation—a relatively new and broadly empowered agency with functions similar to the SEC, CFTC, FDA, and USPTO in the United States—Tesla’s Beijing branch issued recalls for 29,193 Model X or Model S cars made between September 17th, 2013 and January 15th, 2018. The vehicles built during that roughly four-and-a-half year window may have rolled off the factory line with major suspension defects.
Billionaire investor Chamath Palihapitiya told CNBC Tesla's stock could be worth three times more than its current valuation. According to Business Insider that would make CEO Elon Musk the first trillionaire in history. Palihapitiya's comments come as Tesla shares shot up 6.9%. Elon Musk surpassed Jeff Bezos as the richest person on the planet on Thursday. Palihapitiya said Tesla is a "distributed energy business." He's believed for a while that the world's first trillionaire will be a person who is fighting climate change. Palihapitiya said "Don't sell a share" of Tesla, he told investors.
On Monday, Tesla stock climbed as much as 5%. Business Insider reports that Tesla's market capitalization is north of $700 billion. Elon Musk's company exceeded its production target of 500,000 vehicles last year. The company has fallen just short of 500,000 deliveries. "So proud of the Tesla team for achieving this major milestone!" Musk tweeted about the news. Tesla's stock price soared by more than 740% in 2020.
