For profitable companies where revenue is a key driver of future potential, the P/S ratio is a useful cross check on valuation because it ties the share price directly to each dollar of sales, regardless of capital structure or accounting differences in earnings. Our Discounted Cash Flow (DCF) analysis suggests Tesla may be overvalued by 148.4%. Discover 55 high quality undervalued stocks or create your own screener to find better value opportunities. When all those projected cash flows are discounted back, the model arrives at an estimated intrinsic value of US$153.27 per share. Against the recent share price of US$380.78, this implies the stock trades at a very large premium. The DCF suggests it is about 148.4% overvalued. For Tesla, the model used is a 2 Stage Free Cash Flow to Equity approach based on cash flow projections. The latest twelve month free cash flow is about $5.3b. Analyst inputs and extrapolations feed into a ten year path that includes an estimated free cash flow of about $27.1b in 2030, with further years extended by Simply Wall St using estimated growth rates. A Discounted Cash Flow, or DCF, model estimates what a company might be worth by projecting its future cash flows and then discounting those back to today using a required rate of return. It is essentially asking what Tesla's future cash generation could be worth in today's dollars. Tesla scores just 0/6 on our valuation checks. See what other red flags we found in the full valuation breakdown . Despite the strong multi year track record, Tesla currently holds a value score of 0 out of 6 .

Photographer: Kiyoshi Ota/Bloomberg via Getty Images Bloomberg | Bloomberg | Getty Images Asia-Pacific markets jumped Tuesday, with South Korean equities leading regional gains after a sharp drop in oil prices eased investor concerns following signs of de-escalation in the Middle East conflict. South Korea's Kospi surged 3.5%, while the small-cap Kosdaq was 3.29% higher. Japan's Nikkei 225 rose 2.2%, while the Topix added 2.47%. Australia's S&P/ASX 200 rose by over 0.74%. Hong Kong Hang Seng index futures were at 25,020, compared with the index's last close of 24,382.47. The gains came after U.S. President Donald Trump said Monday he had instructed the U.S. military to delay planned strikes on Iran's power plants and energy facilities for five days, after discussions with Iranian officials. However, Iranian state media, citing an unnamed senior security official in a Telegram post, disputed Trump's account, denying that any talks had taken place between Washington and Tehran. Oil prices tumbled on Monday following Trump's comments. "I AM PLEASE TO REPORT THAT THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, AND THE COUNTRY OF IRAN, HAVE HAD, OVER THE LAST TWO DAYS, VERY GOOD AND PRODUCTIVE CONVERSATIONS REGARDING A COMPLETE AND TOTAL RESOLUTION OF OUR HOSTILITIES IN THE MIDDLE EAST," Trump said Monday in a Truth Social post. In early trading on Tuesday, crude prices were largely stable. The U.S. West Texas Intermediate was about 1.5% higher at $89.5 per barrel. Overnight in the U.S., stocks rallied Monday. The Dow Jones Industrial Average jumped 631 points, or 1.38%, to close at 46,208.47. The S&P 500 rose 1.15% and ended at 6,581.00, while the Nasdaq Composite gained 1.38% and settled at 21,946.76. Before Trump's comments, posted on Truth Social early Monday, futures pointed to more losses for equity markets under siege from s...

Shares of Norwegian Cruise Line (NCLH +6.17%) rose on Monday after oil prices retreated from their highs. By the close of trading, Norwegian's stock price was up more than 6%. Welcome relief Fuel is typically one of the largest expenses for cruise ship operators. It therefore comes as no surprise that Norwegian's stock price took a hit in recent weeks, as oil prices surged amid intensified conflict in the Middle East. Additionally, consumers tend to pull back on vacations and other discretionary spending when gasoline prices rise and overall inflation increases. These factors likely also contributed to the recent swoon in Norwegian's shares.

koto_feja/E+ via Getty Images The following segment was excerpted from The Goldman Sachs VIT Mid Cap Value Fund Q4 2025 Commentary. The Goldman Sachs VIT Mid Cap Value Fund underperformed its benchmark, the Russell Midcap Value Index (net), during the quarter. The Industrials and Energy sectors contributed to returns, while the Materials and Health Care sectors detracted from returns. Western Digital Corporation ( WDC ) (1.5%) was a top contributor to relative returns during the quarter. The company is a global provider of solutions for digital content collection, storage, management, protection, and use. Western Digital Corporation's stock price rose throughout the quarter as the company benefitted from continued strong demand within its cloud segment, alongside increasing needs for artificial intelligence-driven data storage. We believe Western Digital Corporation is an industry leader in the hard disk drive market, strategically positioned for structural growth driven by increasing cloud capital expenditure and the emergence of artificial intelligence with its sales increasingly dominated by data centers. This strong market position, coupled with anticipated margin and free cash flow improvements, may offer upside potential. Our position in Coherent Corp. ( COHR ) (1.2%) was a top contributor to relative returns during the quarter. The company operates globally in engineered materials, lasers, and photonics. Coherent's stock price rose following its earnings results, delivering better than expected earnings and revenue, robust future guidance, and strong demand for its optical solutions, while demonstrating significant progress towards its margin expansion goals. We believe Coherent presents a compelling investment opportunity due to its market share and capabilities in essential data transmission technology and strong revenue growth across its industrial, telecom, and datacenter segments. The company leverages proprietary laser and optical components, actively e...

Hundreds Of Gas Stations Run Dry In Australia As Hormuz Shock Exposes Energy Security Failures Australia's weird obsession with "green energy," compounded by a lack of urgency regarding proper energy security, has now collided with the worst energy crisis the world has ever seen. A country heavily dependent on imported refined petroleum products, many of which transit the Strait of Hormuz, has reached the fourth week of the U.S.-Iran war, but with a full-blown fuel supply shock now underway, and hundreds of gas stations across the country running dry. Energy Minister Chris Bowen warned federal parliament on Monday that more than 109 gas stations in Victoria had run out of at least one grade of gas. He said 47 outlets in Queensland had no diesel, 32 had no regular unleaded, and 37 stations in New South Wales had completely run out of fuel. Earlier, NSW Premier Chris Minns warned that 105 gas stations across his state had completely run out of diesel. The Guardian noted that the energy minister did not disclose how many gas stations in Western Australia, the Northern Territory, South Australia, or Tasmania had run out of fuel. On Sunday, Bowen said that six tankers from Malaysia, Singapore, and South Korea that had been expected to unload refined petroleum products next month were canceled or deferred. He told local outlet ABC TV that the federal government is urgently working to replace those fuel cargoes. Six oil ships bound for Australia have been turned back or deferred as the nation’s fuel crisis deepens, Energy Minister Chris Bowen has revealed.

He continued, "Peopl...
