About
At the time of writing, a share of Tesla’s stock is currently priced around $350.
But…is that what it’s actually worth?
In this short, project-based series, we’ll explore how to determine a stock’s “intrinsic” value by building two popular valuation models from scratch. (These models are commonly used in the finance industry to value companies.)
By projecting a company’s future performance and tying the numbers together in a simple model, you’ll be able to determine whether a stock appears to be undervalued or overpriced.
