The consensus target for the stock is $35.15, with a target high of $83 and target low of $13; the current price is below the median target of $31.3.

NIO Analysts and investors are closely watching the company due to recent news related to tax breaks and subsidies for electric vehicles (EV) in China, NIO's primary market.

Stock Price Predictions

For the next trading day, June 23, 2023, the stock price is expected to experience volatility in light of the latest news about China extending the tax exemptions for EV purchases. The stock price may see increased buying pressure following the recent catalysts and may move higher in the day, potentially breaching the $9 mark.

For the upcoming week, considering the technical and fundamental indicators, as well as recent news events, we expect the stock to move higher and test the $9.50 to $10 levels. However, potential headwinds from negative sentiment around the company's management and growth prospects might limit the stock's upward performance.

Final Evaluation: Hold

Considering the current market price, the discounted cash flow value, and the median target price, the stock seems undervalued. However, NIO's bearish technical indicators, negative sentiment regarding the company's management and growth, as well as short-term volatility in the sector, prompt a cautious approach. We recommend a "Hold" stance for NIO, as there may be a better entry point for long-term investors.
