What Investors Should Know About a 10-Year Tesla Investment

Long-Term Performance Indicators

The profit development of a Tesla investment between 2015 and 2025 cannot be calculated exactly, as data for May 2015 is missing. Nevertheless, examples show that an early investment would have generated significant profits. A sale worth 7,700 EUR would be valued at 142,000 EUR today – a sign of extreme value appreciation.

Fundamental Data 2024

  • Revenue: 97.69 billion USD
  • Net Profit: 7.09 billion USD
  • Earnings per Share (diluted): 2.04 USD

Price Development and Return Potential

Since its IPO in 2010, Tesla stock has been able to achieve high returns, accompanied by typical volatility. The price is currently around 211 EUR. Without data from 2015, a precise return calculation remains difficult.

Context to Other Stocks

In comparison, Deutz stock showed an increase of about 89% between 2015 and 2025, while the S&P 500 outperformed Novo Nordisk. This underscores Tesla’s higher risk-return profile.

Aspect Details
Time Horizon Long-term holding (>10 years) has historically been lucrative for growth stocks like Tesla
Volatility Extreme price fluctuations require strong nerves
Benchmarking Outperformance against industry indices possible, but not guaranteed

For a precise analysis, less common data would be necessary, such as end and beginning closing prices of Tesla stock for 2015 and dividend-adjusted historical data.
