> Our confidence level that this stock is heading for $7,000 over the next five years is very high

Wood said Ark arrived at the target by weighting the probabilities of 10 scenarios, including bankruptcy. She argued Tesla's battery costs are three to four years ahead of other automakers, and the article says the target assumes rising electric-vehicle demand, Tesla keeping its market share and improving margins through cheaper batteries. Wood also tied the target to Tesla developing an autonomous taxi fleet with software-like margins around 80%, while assuming only a 25% chance that it is running within two to three years.
