| 0:00.0 | Hey everybody Rob Maurer here and today we are talking about downgrades for |
| 0:10.6 | Tesla stock from Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley, some new features for |
| 0:14.3 | Tesla autopilot waiting in the wings, some news on solar roof as well as the Ford Electric |
| 0:18.7 | F-150. Tesla stock on the day today did finish down 3.9% so a couple of rough days here after crossing $1,000 per share. |
| 0:26.5 | Never seen Tesla investors so disappointed up with a $935 close, but it is what it is that was on a couple |
| 0:32.2 | downgrades today from Goldman Sachs and |
| 0:34.1 | Morgan Stanley likely contributing to Tesla's underperformance versus the NASDAQ |
| 0:38.1 | which finished up 1%. Neither downgrade was significant from a price target change |

| 1:21.0 | Morgan Stanley has downgraded Tesla from equal weight to underweight and again lower their price target from $680 to $650. |
| 1:27.0 | They're projecting $490,000 deliveries for 2020. |
| 1:31.0 | Of course, a few weeks back I walked through Tesla's path for beating |
| 1:34.4 | guidance this year which was more than 500,000 vehicles. I was pretty |
| 1:37.7 | confident in that at that time and I've only grown more confident since. |
