Longtime Tesla Supporter Scottish Mortgage Exits Holding After Massive Returns
Yahoo Finance ·
Scottish Mortgage Investment Trust, a steadfast institutional backer of Elon Musk, has fully liquidated its equity stake in Tesla Inc. (TSLA) as of April, concluding an investment journey that began in 2013. Managed by Baillie Gifford, the fund deployed nearly $470 million into the electric vehicle maker over the course of 13 years, generating roughly $6.2 billion in realized profits and achieving a 13-fold return on its initial outlay. According to the trust, much of Tesla's future potential in autonomous driving and robotics is already priced into the current valuation, alongside mounting competition in the EV sector, particularly from China. In addition to closing its Tesla position, the trust has also trimmed its exposure to SpaceX, reducing its holdings to 11.1% of fund assets as of Wednesday, down from 15% on September 30. The fund management emphasized that the SpaceX reduction stems from portfolio risk management and discipline rather than diminishing confidence in the aerospace enterprise, with the share sales collectively assisting in lowering overall borrowing levels.

DYAX 전담 분석
The fund under Baillie Gifford invested 470 million dollars and achieved a realized gain of approximately 6.2 billion dollars, but liquidated its position due to intensifying competition in the EV market and valuation pressure. Along with this, the weight of SpaceX (SPCX) was also reduced from 15 percent to 11.1 percent to decrease borrowings.
Going forward, the key indicator for Tesla's additional stock price increase will be whether the performance of autonomous driving and robotics businesses becomes visible, and continuous outflows of large institutions and changes in market share in China must be closely monitored.
