Zhitong Finance APP has learned that Tesla (TSLA.US), the U.S. giant in artificial intelligence, humanoid robots, autonomous driving technology, and electric vehicle manufacturing, whose stock price has been on an upward trajectory since late July, has seen its rally remain unabated in the view of some Wall Street strategists. In their view, the luxury car Roadster is responsible for demonstrating Tesla's strong engineering capabilities, while Optimus (the "Optimus Prime" humanoid robot) and Cybercab (the Robotaxi fully autonomous taxi) carry Tesla's core imagination for breaking through the automotive industry's valuation framework. Tesla and SpaceX CEO the world's richest person Musk made it clear over the weekend that humanoid robots and robotaxis will constitute the vast majority of Tesla's future value.
