However, investors tend to focus on value, leaving behind flashes as they put their funds in. So let’s take a quick comparison between Tesla and Rivian to see which stocks offer more opportunities to return per market analyst.

As of the start of the year, Tesla shares were up 117.81% and Rivian was down 5.25%.

Tesla shares were spurred by news of Cybertruck production and successive car deliveries, which came despite macroeconomic headwinds. RIVN shares, on the other hand, were silenced by fundraising efforts and production that fell short of estimates.

Thus, $1,000 invested in Tesla stock at the beginning of the year would have doubled the money to about $2,178 now, and an equal amount invested in Rivian stock would have resulted in a loss of about $52.50.

In terms of value based on current prices, Wall Street analysts believe Tesla stock may have already exceeded its value. Thus, the current price of Tesla stock is around $233.99, while analysts see a potential 12.23% drop on the stock.[Tesla FSD 12 version is about to be commercialized: On-Device AI wave]

According to the media on November 24, the 12th version of FSD began to be distributed to Tesla employees.

This time, the possibility of commercializing the 12th version of FSD is increasing at the end of the year or the beginning of the year.

With Apple and Samsung announcing that they will apply AI technology to smartphones, On-Device AI is emerging as a new investment theme. When Tesla’s FSD 12 version is commercialized, it is expected to receive more attention than smartphones.

On-Device AI is a technology that processes data from the device itself and performs AI algorithms without the cloud (Internet connection).
In the case of autonomous driving, relying on the cloud can be seen as the pinnacle technology of On-Device AI because it can be fatal to safety when the Internet is disconnected. 

In addition, autonomous driving technology can be extended to robots, which is expected to accelerate the enlightenment of the humanoid robot era.

That’s Why We Should Pay Attention To Tesla’s FSD Version 12 Commercialization Momentum.
