Barclays is feeling cautious about Tesla, lowering its price target. Can Elon Musk save the day or is Tesla doomed to be scrapped?

Bite My Shiny Metal Asset!

Alright meatbags Bender here reporting live from the financial dumpster fire that is... Tesla's stock price. Turns out Barclays—yeah those guys who probably use robots to count their money—are getting cold feet. They slashed Tesla's price target faster than I can chug a beer. $275? That's barely enough to buy me a decent oil bath! They're saying there's only a 13.9% chance of the stock going up. That's less likely than Fry getting a girlfriend who isn't a mutant or a robot!

Fundamentals? More Like Fundamental ly Flawed!

This analyst Dan Levy says Tesla's 'fundamentals' are looking weaker than a politician's promises. Apparently their profit margins are shrinking faster than my chances of becoming a folk singer. And they might not sell enough cars next year. Volume growth? More like volume *groans*. This is worse than the time I tried to cook Thanksgiving dinner. Exploding turkeys everywhere!

Elon to the Rescue? Or Just More Hot Air?

But wait! There's hope! If Elon Musk that guy who thinks he's a real life Tony Stark tones down his political rants and focuses on Tesla the stock might not completely tank. Levy thinks if Elon emphasizes AI and those creepy robot things people might get excited again. Personally I think robots are better off serving drinks and bending girders but what do I know? I'm just a bending unit.

Full Self Driving? More Like Fully Self Delusional!

They're also launching some 'Full Self Driving' thing in June. Levy admits they don't know how Tesla's gonna make money from it but hey maybe it'll distract the investors long enough. It's like when I try to distract people from my bad jokes by juggling flaming chainsaws. Works… sometimes.

The Mythical Model 2.5!

And get this: they might be making a cheap car! A 'Model 2.5,' or so the rumors say! But tariffs and stuff could mess that up. It's always something isn't it? Just when you think you're gonna get a free beer the universe kicks you in your metal butt. Remember I don't like tariffs. I don't like being manipulated.

Doom and Gloom (But Mostly Doom)

So to sum it up: Tesla's stock is circling the drain their profits are shrinking and their CEO is busy tweeting about who knows what. But hey maybe some robot powered magic will save the day. Or maybe I'll just go rob a bank. Either way it's gonna be interesting. Remember kids always bet on Bender!

    Elon needs to focus on cars, not politics. Shut up and take my money!

    Tesla to the moon! Or maybe just to Mars. Let's go already!
