Tesla (TSLA) demand to recover as 'hackers' are finding new jobs in AI

Tesla (NASDAQ: TSLA) analyst Trip Chowdhry of Global Equities Research sees a demand recovery for the EV company starting in August 2023 and previously laid-off tech workers are finding new jobs due to the AI boom.

Chowdhry highlights that the demand for Tesla vehicles is a function of tech layoffs, and he believes the majority of the tech layoffs will complete by July.

He highlighted that at recent hackathons, almost 60% of hackers had lost their jobs. These hackers are now reinventing themselves in the AI world and getting multiple job offers at about a 5-10% haircut to their prior tech jobs before they were laid off.

Chowdhry said they asked a few of these hackers, what large purchases they plan to do once they get a job. Their top answer to the question... "Will buy a Tesla".

The analyst believes Q2 will be the bottom for Tesla revenue, with a slight recovery in Q3 and normalized demand in Q4. He sees 2024 back to 50% or more revenue growth rates for the company.
