Mizuho Says This EV Company's Margins Are Ahead Of The Entire Industry

On CNBC, Mizuho Securities analyst Vijay Rakesh said growth stocks have seen some headwinds in the recent period due to the prospects of rate hikes by the Federal Reserve.

He added that Tesla, Inc. TSLA is a technology leader in the electric vehicle space and its growth and profitability margins are well ahead of other companies in the industry.

Tesla has a vertically integrated model and does almost everything in house, including battery, which can help in controlling costs and driving better margins, he said. No other automotive original equipment manufacturer is “as vertically integrated or even close” to Tesla, Rakesh said.
