Continuing coverage of Tesla's EV challenges (see Jan 5 Q4 miss analysis), UBS analyst Joseph Spak on January 5 maintained a 'sell' rating with $247 target, arguing AI ventures like robotaxi and Optimus are overvalued amid declining EV sales and slashed earnings forecasts—much upside already priced in despite tech progress.

Building on recent U.S. and European sales slumps and insider activity (see prior coverage), UBS Group on January 5, 2026, reaffirmed its 'sell' rating on Tesla (TSLA) with a $247 price target—implying 45% downside from $451.43.
