Title: Tesla Investment Sanity Check: Is TSLA's Projected 15% Return Worth the Risk? Tagline: Tesla Investment Sanity Check: Is TSLA's Projected 15% Return Worth the Risk? Problem: Emily and David, both 45, are high-earning professionals with a combined income of $450,000. They're feeling the pressure of looming college expenses for their three children. They've heard about Tesla's impressive growth and are tempted to invest a significant portion ($50,000) of their savings, hoping for substantial returns to help fund their children's education. However, David is concerned about the volatility associated with TSLA and whether the potential return justifies the risk, especially considering their crucial need for college funds. He wants a clear, objective assessment of the expected return relative to the risk-free rate and market risk premium. Solution: By using the Tesla (TSLA) CAPM Calculator, Emily and David can determine if TSLA's projected return, given its beta and market conditions, adequately compensates them for the risk involved. They can adjust their expected return assumptions to see how sensitive the investment is to various market factors, allowing them to make an informed decision about allocating a substantial portion of their savings. If the CAPM reveals that the risk-adjusted return is not sufficient, they can explore alternative, less volatile investment options or consider adjusting their investment amount. Furthermore, they can use the Bond Yield to Maturity (YTM) Calculator to evaluate safer fixed-income investments as a counterbalance. ROI: By using the CAPM calculator, they determine that TSLA's expected return is indeed around 15%, but after considering their specific risk tolerance (measured through scenario planning within the tool), they realize it's too risky for a significant portion of their college fund savings. By shifting 50% of the proposed TSLA investment ($25,000) into a diversified bond portfolio yielding 5% (assessed via the Bond YTM Calculator), they reduce their potential losses in a downturn while still earning a decent return. This strategy protects approximately $1,250 annually on the shifted investment. They also decided to invest only $25,000 in TSLA, which gives them a potential 7.5% return, or $1875, at current valuations. This approach aligns better with their risk profile and allows them to save $1,250 per year due to the avoided risk.
