Tesla Cuts U.S. Vehicle Prices For The Fifth Time Since January
Tesla is once again cutting prices for its vehicles in the U.S., in a sign that the company continues to look to spur more demand after disappointing the market with its Q1 2023 deliveries number just days ago.
The company cut the Model S and Model X vehicles by $5,000 to $84,990 and $94,990 and cut its Model 3 and Model Y vehicle by $1,000 and $2,000, lowering their base prices to $41,990 and $49,990, the Wall Street Journal reported Friday morning. These cuts mark the fifth time Tesla has cut prices since January. Days ago the company reported that it sold 88,869 units of China-made electric vehicles for the month of March, a 35% increase from a year ago, according to data from the China Passenger Car Association (CPCA).
The figure was up 19.4% sequentially after Tesla delivered 74,402 vehicles in February. Competitor BYD remains the name to watch in China, however, selling 206,089 vehicles last month.It marked the "second-highest China-made vehicle sales ever for the company, just behind the 100,291 units that were sold in November of last year," according to the Teslarati blog.
Recall we also posted Tesla's Q1 delivery numbers for the U.S. just days ago. Tesla reported Q1 2023 deliveries, posting a figure of 422,875 vehicles delivered. The company delivered 10,695 Model S/X vehicles and 412,180 Model 3/Y vehicles.
Original analyst expectations were for 430,008 vehicles, according to Refinitiv data cited by Reuters. Multiple outlets reported the number as a miss (it was, compared to original estimates) and a beat (it was, compared to current lower-balled estimates). This Q1 figure was a 36% increase year over year and a 4% increase sequentially, compared to the 405,278 deliveries the company posted in Q4 2022. Bulls are likely to see the beat as good news, while bears will likely argue that the "beat" wasn't enough given the drastic price cuts Tesla has put into place since the end of last year. "We continued to transition towards a more even regional mix of vehicle builds, including Model S/X vehicles in transit to EMEA and APAC," the company's release said. Despite this mix change, the Model S and Model X are becoming dwindling contributors to Tesla's delivery bottom line. Martin Viecha, Tesla's head of IR, said last week: "Sequential growth continues even in the first quarter."
With these new price cuts, it looks like Tesla wants to make sure that trend will continue. The only question, naturally, is how the cuts will affect margin and the company's bottom line. Analyst Gordon Johnson says that despite the robust China numbers, Tesla's earnings could be setting up for an "epic disaster" on margin compression.
The company is set to report earnings in less than two weeks on April 19.

Office property under pressure as U.S. REIT index hits 14-year low
From the U.S. to Japan, real estate investment trusts that focus on office property have taken a hit from fears that financing will be harder to come by amid turmoil in banking. The S&P 1500 Office REITs Sub-Industry Index, which tracks major office property REITs in the U.S., fell to 53 at one point in late March. It was down more than 20% from the end of 2022 and plumbed its lowest point since 2009. As of Thursday, the index still languished under 60.
Many individual REITs have suffered steeper declines. Boston Properties, whose holdings include office space in San Francisco, saw its share price drop around 60% in the past year. Vornado Realty Trust, which focuses on New York real estate, is trading at its lowest levels since the mid-1990s.
The declines extend beyond the U.S. Germany's Alstria Office REIT is trading at its lowest in more than 10 years. Nippon Building Fund, Japan's largest REIT by market capitalization, has fallen as much as 7% since the end of 2022, approaching a 2020 low marked at the height of the COVID-19 pandemic.
The sell-off in office REITs partly reflects concerns over the availability of funding. The collapse of Silicon Valley Bank and the crisis at Credit Suisse have heightened uncertainty, leading small and midsize banks in particular to tighten lending as they guard against potential outflows of deposits. REITs raise funds to acquire properties that they rent out for income. Reduced availability and increased costs of funding impact their earning potential, sapping investor confidence.
There is also concern that big European banks could scale back lending. The terms of Credit Suisse's rescue wipe out its Additional Tier 1 bonds, a form of bank capital, and yields on AT1 bonds from other banks face upward pressure.
"The cost of refinancing AT1 bonds is rising, which has the same effect as monetary tightening," a Japanese banker in London said.
Meanwhile, with remote work here to stay, structural demand for offices is declining. U.S. office vacancies came to 12.5% for the October-December quarter, according to JPMorgan – comparable to levels during the global financial crisis. Goldman Sachs estimates that office occupancy in the U.K. has fallen by half from pre-COVID levels to around 30%.
Monetary tightening across advanced economies is another concern. The rise in long-term interest rates means that investors expect higher returns, or cap rates, from their properties.
REITs are struggling even outside office properties. The S&P 1500 Residential REITs Sub-Industry Index is at a roughly two-year low as the housing boom of the pandemic fades. Those tracking commercial and industrial properties are on a similar trajectory. Overall, the total market cap of REITs around the world had fallen around 20% on the year to $1.9 trillion in March.
Property prices will eventually bottom out, and patient investors will see openings for purchases, said Eric Adler, CEO of U.S.-based PGIM Real Estate. (good luck with that until the FED stops)
