Right now traders are paying for a move of about ±$15.85 (±4.1%) by Friday, October 16. We found that this range is far more honest than any one-number prediction, because it changes every minute with the market's actual bets.

This page tracks the live price, what analysts expect over the next 12 months, what the options market expects this week, and how Tesla stacks up against Elon Musk's newly public SpaceX.
Key Answers About Tesla Stock Today
Every number below updates with the market. Here are the questions people ask most when they look up Tesla's share price.
Tesla (TSLA) is at $382.70, up $7.70, or 2.05%, in the latest session. Its 52-week range is $297.38 – $498.83.
Wall Street is split. Of 43 current ratings, 19 are buy or strong buy, 20 are hold and 4 are sell or strong sell. That split is the honest answer: professionals disagree sharply, so the right move depends on your time horizon and how much of your savings is already in one stock.
The 37 analysts tracked by Yahoo Finance have an average 12-month target of $392.42 (median $410.00), 2.5% above the current $382.70. The range runs from $128.11 to $600.00 — a very wide spread that shows how sharply professionals disagree.
Tesla is down 14.9% so far this year. Vehicle deliveries have been roughly flat — Tesla delivered 486,532 cars in the third quarter, beating forecasts but 2% fewer than a year earlier — while it plans to roughly triple capital spending to about $25 billion this year. Investors are weighing that spending against its robotaxi, AI and energy ambitions.
Tesla's highest closing price is $489.88, set on December 16, 2025. Over the past 52 weeks the stock traded as high as $498.83 during the day and as low as $297.38. At $382.70, it is 21.9% below that record.
Nobody can predict this week's close, but the options market prices in a move of about ±$15.85 (±4.1%) by Friday, October 16 — roughly $366.85 to $398.55.
SpaceX went public on June 12 on the Nasdaq under the ticker SPCX, pricing its IPO at $135 a share. It now trades at $162.57, 20.4% above that offer price, after peaking at a closing high of $211.39 on June 16. It trades like any other Nasdaq stock through a regular brokerage account. Be wary of anyone selling "pre-IPO" or discounted SpaceX shares — that pitch is now a red flag.
The Roadster reveal set for October 15, then third-quarter earnings on Wednesday, October 21, after the market closes. Earnings weeks typically bring Tesla's biggest single-day moves.
Tesla Price Target and Analyst Ratings
The 37 analysts tracked by Yahoo Finance have an average 12-month target of $392.42 (median $410.00), 2.5% above the current $382.70. The range runs from $128.11 to $600.00 — a very wide spread that shows how sharply professionals disagree.
A 12-month target is one analyst's estimate under one set of assumptions, and Tesla's targets are unusually far apart because analysts disagree about what the company is: a carmaker valued on today's earnings, or an AI and robotics business valued on what it might earn years from now. Use the average as a gauge of sentiment, not a promise — Tesla has often traded far from its consensus target.
Tesla Stock Prediction This Week
Nobody can predict this week's close, but the options market prices in a move of about ±$15.85 (±4.1%) by Friday, October 16 — roughly $366.85 to $398.55.
This comes from the price of an "at-the-money" straddle — a call plus a put at the strike closest to today's price — expiring this Friday. Traders pay up when they expect bigger swings, so the range widens ahead of events like earnings. Historically the stock finishes inside this kind of range more often than not, but the moves outside it can be large.
Why Tesla Stock Is Moving
Tesla is down 14.9% so far this year and 12.1% lower than a year ago. These are the forces behind it.
Third-quarter deliveries came in at 486,532 vehicles — about 1% more than the second quarter and ahead of Wall Street's roughly 461,000 estimate, but 2% below the 497,099 delivered a year earlier, when U.S. buyers rushed to claim the federal EV tax credit before it expired.
Tesla has said it expects to spend about $25 billion on plants and equipment this year, up from $8.5 billion last year. That money funds AI computing, new factories and autonomy, but it squeezes near-term cash flow — and the payoff is years out.
Much of Tesla's value rests on robotaxis, self-driving software, humanoid robots and energy storage rather than today's car sales. News on those fronts — including the Roadster event on October 15 — can move the stock more than any delivery report.
Third-quarter results are due Wednesday, October 21. Watch automotive margins, the capital-spending outlook and any update on autonomy timelines.

Tesla and SpaceX are separate public companies with separate shareholders; owning one gives you no stake in the other. They share a chief executive in Elon Musk, so news about him — or about how he splits his time — can move both at once. SpaceX's IPO raised about $75 billion, the largest on record.

What Would My Tesla or SpaceX Investment Be Worth?
Pick a stock, an amount and the date you bought. The calculator uses the closing price on that date and today's live price. It ignores dividends (neither company pays one) and trading fees.
What to Do in Your Situation
A stock that has done well can quietly grow into a quarter or more of a portfolio. Given how far Tesla can move in a single week, many planners suggest capping any one stock at a small share of what you'll need for retirement income. Trimming in a tax-advantaged account has no immediate tax cost; in a taxable account, shares held over a year qualify for lower long-term rates.
Newly public stocks often swing hard in their first year, and insiders' "lock-up" agreements — commonly about six months — can release a wave of shares when they end. For SpaceX, that would fall around December; check the company's prospectus on the SEC's EDGAR site for the exact terms before you buy.
Options can expire worthless in days, and leveraged single-stock funds reset daily, so they can lose money even when Tesla ends flat. If a broker, social-media account or "mentor" is urging these on you, slow down and verify them first.
Impersonation scams use deepfake videos and fake accounts promising to double crypto or sell discounted Tesla or SpaceX shares. Musk, Tesla and SpaceX do not run giveaways or sell stock through messages. Don't send money or crypto, and report it.
