Citi analyst Itay Michaeli lowered the firm’s price target on Tesla to $196 from $224 and keeps a Neutral rating on the shares. Ahead of Tesla’s Q1 delivery release, the analyst lowered estimates to reflect recent data points. The firm’s Q1 delivery estimate goes to 429,9000 from 473,300. The Q1 setup for Tesla “looks tough on aggressive consensus estimates,” the analyst tells investors in a research note. In recent weeks, consensus estimates have come down, but March data points have also disappointed, says Citi. It believes Sheet estimates are still looking too high, not only for 2024 but also 2025.
