Core Viewpoint - The current market volatility presents opportunities for long-term investors to acquire growth stocks at lower prices, specifically highlighting Tesla and Rocket Lab as attractive options due to their recent stock price declines [1][2]. Tesla - Tesla's stock has decreased by 15% this year, primarily due to disappointing sales and concerns over CEO Elon Musk's involvement with the Department of Government Efficiency [4]. - Despite the decline, Tesla has several positive catalysts, including the potential success of its robotaxi launch, which could generate significant recurring revenue [5]. - The company has transitioned Model Y production to a new model, plans to release lower-cost vehicles, and aims to mass-produce the Cybercab robotaxi by 2026, with an unsupervised autonomy launch planned for June [6]. - There is skepticism regarding Tesla's ability to meet its robotaxi and full-service driving goals, but the delay may benefit the company as public acceptance of robotaxis increases [7].
