Black believes Tesla will be among the first to achieve generalized unsupervised autonomy, but expects rivals such as Waymo, Baidu and Zoox to get there too.Nevada recently approved only 10 Cybercabs after Tesla sought authorization for 5,000 vehicles.Last month, France opposed the approval of Tesla’s FSD system in its current form.Future Fund Managing Partner Gary Black said Tesla (TSLA) stock could remain “moribund” until CEO Elon Musk proves that Cybercabs can operate without safety monitors and expand beyond mapped cities.In a post on X on Tuesday, Black also highlighted TSLA stock’s underperformance compared to the Nasdaq-100 (NDX) over a 5-year period. As of this writing, NDX is up around 96% over the past five years while TSLA shares have climbed around 50%.“Until Elon Musk puts on the road Cybercabs without safety monitors and scales it to cities not already mapped out, TSLA stock will remain moribund as it has been for the past five years despite bulls cheering it on every chance they get,” Black said.Black Says ‘No Evidence’ That Cybercab Can Drive Itself ‘Flawlessly’Black also expressed skepticism about the excitement among Tesla bulls, despite a lack of evidence that the new Cybercab can operate “flawlessly” without safety monitors or achieve near-perfect unsupervised driving.“Bulls are again whooping it up as if TSLA has alone solved for unsupervised autonomy and the Cybercab now drives itself at 99.999% efficacy,” he said.“I fully believe TSLA will be one of the first to solve for generalized unsupervised autonomy, but so will others,” Black added, pointing to rivals including Alphabet’s Waymo, Baidu and Amazon’s Zoox.Resistance To FSDTesla said in its second-quarter earnings update that Cybercab production had begun and its Robotaxi rollout had reached seven major metropolitan areas.

It is forecasted that Tesla's stock stagnation will continue until it proves the large-scale commercialization of its Cybercab and operation without safety monitors. Regulatory barriers remain high, as Nevada approved only 10 out of 5,000 applications and France denied FSD approval. Over the past five years, Tesla's stock rose by only 50%, underperforming the Nasdaq-100 index's 96% gain.

Tesla's commercialization of FSD and Cybercabs is facing downward pressure on its stock due to delayed regulatory approvals and technological skepticism. Nevada's stringent approval conditions and France's rejection of FSD are factors constraining short-term profitability expansion.

Future stock prices will depend on the empirical verification of driverless autonomy and the pace of regulatory relaxation in major countries. Investors should closely monitor actual driverless operation data and permit volume trends, alongside the competitive landscape with Waymo and Baidu.
