Jim Cramer Remains Bullish on Tesla Despite Weak Share Performance
Despite a challenging year for Tesla, Inc. (NASDAQ:TSLA), with shares down nearly 30% year-to-date and missing earnings estimates in its latest quarter, CNBC's Jim Cramer remains confident in CEO Elon Musk’s leadership. Cramer emphasized that while concerns persist around falling vehicle prices and regulatory credit revenue, the company is positioned for long-term growth through AI-driven initiatives like Optimus robot, FSD autonomous driving, and robotaxis. Tesla plans to invest $26 billion in 2026 into AI infrastructure, a move that has divided investors between those who see transformative potential and others worried about financial strain. The company reported Q2 revenue of $28.24 billion but fell short on earnings per share at $0.33 versus expectations of $0.51. With negative free cash flow in the second quarter, bears argue Tesla’s forward P/E ratio is not justified by its current margins.
