Shares of electric-vehicle and energy specialist Tesla (TSLA +1.16%) boast a staggering market capitalization of about $1.5 trillion as of this writing. The growth stock's extraordinarily high valuation is fascinating -- especially considering the company's core automotive business is currently shrinking. So, what gives? Why are investors paying a price tag of about 360 times earnings as of this writing? And, more importantly, is the stock a buy, sell, or hold? With the company's 2025 results in the rearview mirror, let's look at the underlying business and the stock's valuation to help investors think through how they want to approach the stock. A business in transition Tesla's recent financial results highlighted a company leaning heavily on its secondary businesses to offset weakness in its primary one. Vehicle deliveries fell 16% year over year in Q4 to about 418,000 units. But looking at just the back half of the year can be slightly misleading. Tesla experienced some unusual factors impacting its third and fourth quarters due to the timing of the expiration of an electric vehicle credit, which pulled some demand forward into Q3, leaving Q4 unusually weak. Because of this noise, a look at full-year trends for vehicle deliveries does a better job of telling investors what's actually going on. Unfortunately, that full-year picture still shows a business under pressure. Total vehicle deliveries in 2025 totaled roughly 1.64 million, a decline of about 9% from 2024. This broader volume decline weighed heavily on the company's top line, with total automotive revenue for the year dropping 10% to roughly $69.5 billion. Fortunately, the company's fast-growing energy generation and storage business helped offset some of this pain. Energy revenue climbed 27% year over year to nearly $12.8 billion for the full year. This surging segment helped keep total company revenue at $94.8 billion -- down just 3% from the prior year. But profits are still moving in the wrong directio...

If you believe Elon Musk, Tesla (NASDAQ: TSLA) is not an automaker anymore, it's an artificial intelligence (AI) and robotics company. That makes it much harder to assess the potential and value of the stock because there's very little in AI or robotics revenue at Tesla today. Where is Tesla going, and should investors buy the stock? Let's break it down into components. The EV business isn't what it once was Tesla's business today is primarily selling electric vehicles (EVs) with an adjacent energy storage business. For the purpose of this article, I'm going to combine those two businesses and treat them as one. You can see that free cash flow is in decline and so is net income if you pull out the $5.9 billion benefit from deferred tax assets recorded in the fourth quarter of 2024. The reason net income is declining is pretty simple. Tesla was able to raise prices -- and, in turn, its margins -- during the pandemic when the entire industry was in short supply, but it has had to cut prices over the past two years. That will show up in lower margins. Margins are falling, and you can see below that they are now only slightly better than GM (NYSE: GM) and Ford (NYSE: F), despite the EV maker's stock trading for 30 times more on the basis of its price-to-sales ratio (P/S). And remember: Tesla's deliveries and revenue are falling, too. So the market must be putting a lot of value on AI and robotics. AI and Tesla's FSD strategy We know Tesla has been selling Autopilot since 2014 and its Full Self-Driving (FSD) feature -- automated driving that requires human supervision -- since 2020. What we don't know is the adoption rate or anything about the option's margins. For now, it's folded into the auto business. Third-party estimates have the rate of adoption at 2%, although Elon Musk said it was "much higher," without elaborating. If we assume the adoption rate is 5% on 2 million vehicles sold per year, it could add $120 million per year in incremental revenue at the current p...

Nordea Bank Abp is putting as many as 1,500 jobs at risk as it expects artificial intelligence to make processes more efficient and cut costs. The reduction of as much as 5% of the workforce through next year is part of a structural efficiency improvement, the Helsinki-based bank said in a statement Tuesday. The move supports Nordea’s 2030 strategy, which is centered on technology, data and artificial intelligence. Nordea will book restructuring costs of about €190 million ($219 million) in the first quarter, it said. Cost savings will amount to at least €150 million from 2028, Nordea said. Nordea is the latest bank to shed staff in favor of AI models, joining global peers such as Goldman Sachs Group Inc. , ING Groep NV and the Commonwealth Bank of Australia . Worldwide, lenders will cut as many as 200,000 jobs in the next three to five years as artificial intelligence encroaches on tasks currently carried out by human workers, analysts at Bloomberg Intelligence estimated last year. Chief information and technology officers surveyed for BI indicated that on average they expect 3% of their workforce to be cut, according to the report. At Nordea, some of the affected employees will be offered other roles internally, the bank said. The changes will be subject to relevant union negotiation and consultations and Nordea plans to support employees with learning new skills.

Muthoot FinCorp Ltd. , a gold loan lender, is planning an initial public offering that could raise as much as $300 million, according to people familiar with the matter. The flagship company of Kerala-based Muthoot Pappachan Group is in talks with bankers to advise on the offering, with a formal appointment expected soon, the people said, asking not to be identified because the information is private. The IPO, which will be a mix of new shares and an offer for sale by existing investors, could take place later this year, the people said. Even as gold loans emerge as one of the fastest-growing segments in India’s retail credit market, driven by high bullion prices and demand for short-term liquidity, the sharp slide in the stock market this month has dampened sentiment for new offerings. Walmart Inc.-backed PhonePe Ltd. on Monday put its IPO plans on hold, underscoring the challenging listing environment. Deliberations are ongoing, and the terms of the potential offering could still change, the people said. Muthoot FinCorp spokesperson said bankers have not been hired. Founded in 1997, Muthoot FinCorp is a non-deposit-taking financial company that primarily lends against gold jewelry. The company has also expanded into secured and unsecured lending to micro, small, and medium enterprises. It employs more than 23,000 people and operates over 3,700 branches, according to its website.

Military escorts to protect tankers in the Strait of Hormuz are not a sustainable solution, according to the International Maritime Organisation (IMO). “It reduces the risk, but the risk is still there,” IMO Secretary General Arsenio Dominguez told the Financial Times. He said that a military deployment was “not a long-term or sustainable solution”. US President Donald Trump has called for an international naval operation off the Iranian coast to secure oil shipments, saying at the weekend that securing the waterway “should have always been a team effort, and now it will be”. Advertisement But on Monday there was only a lukewarm response, with German Chancellor Friedrich Merz saying the war started by US-Israeli strikes on Iran was “not a matter for Nato ”, while Britain, Spain, Poland, Greece and Sweden all distanced themselves from the calls. Australia and Japan also opted not to join. Dominguez also expressed concern about the ship crews stranded in the Gulf. Tankers sail in the Gulf off the United Arab Emirates coast, near the Strait of Hormuz, on Wednesday. Photo: Reuters “The situation is concerning, particularly because ships are actually not able to operate freely in the Strait of Hormuz or in the region of the Gulf. Access to ports is limited as well because port facilities are being targeted,” the head of the UN organisation said.
