That said, Tesla remains one of the most expensive stocks in the market right now. There are very few examples where paying 122 times forward earnings turned out to be a good investment.

As one of the foremost electric vehicle companies in the world, Tesla continues to be an important company to watch in tech, but its Q4 2024 didn’t bring as good of news as investors might have expected. The company put out its latest earnings results, and with it came a miss on both revenue and earnings-per-share (EPS) versus analyst expectations.

Tesla said it sold 1.79 million vehicles in 2024, the first drop in more than a dozen years despite offers of 0% financing, free charging and low-priced leases

Shares of EV maker Tesla (TSLA) fell in after-hours trading after the company reported earnings for its fourth quarter of Fiscal Year 2024.
