I hear the rentals are booming.
:golf clap:
I remember when Tesla's days were supposed to be numbered, like, five years ago. I don't think market fundamentals matter anymore. If you have enough money you can just do whatever you want and your company will go to the moon
IIRC the company is still way overvalued relative to their actual production as compared to other car companies, it's just that even with the decline when Musk became an open nazi, there are still enough rich tech-bros supporting him and buying shares to keep the price high.
It's not even tech bros, many, many 401k's and other funds include Tesla because of the stock performance. If the company were to tank it'd have significant impact on the entire country. They're literally too big to fail
Tesla's market cap is triple Toyota with 1/5 the earnings.
The rationality of the free market!
what's the lib version of inframaterialism, infra-immaterialism?
is it warhammer 40k that has a species whose space fleet is powered by the collective belief in the fact that it works? red ones go faster or whatever?
Yeah, that's orks
Too big to fail implies the government will prop them up when it fails. I can't see that happening. There are simply no assets, no employee base, it's all fluff.
Reminds me of Enron. The clues are there but everyone chooses to ignore them so they can make money today.
If it tanked it would have an impact on the whole world, loads of people and pensions etc are in to it.
Stocks are based on rich peoples feelings and not any reality
I regret not buying Tesla stock during the pandemic. It was a free money machine.
Good news! The pandemic is ongoing!
No more stimmies though 
The thing with companies crashing is it only happens once. The longer this one stays over valued the harder the tumble will be.
I predict the overall stock market is going to get hit hard around this one. With a trillion dollar market cap, it's not just frat boys and speculators who own this stock.
There’s a service center near my house with probably 100 of them sitting on a field next to it. I always wonder if they’re waiting to go to whoever bought them of if they’re just sitting there jic. But there’s been a pile of them for a couple months now
It’s been long speculated that Musk plays games with moving stock of Teslas around so they can be reported as “in transit” rather than surplus collecting dust in yards.
Could also be 100 defective units lol
Back ordered parts maybe? Every time I hear about one of these things breaking, the service time is absurdly long, like weeks to months.
jic?
Just in case
thanks 
I found a YouTube link in your comment. Here are links to the same video on alternative frontends that protect your privacy:
I guess pointing and laughing at every Cybertruck is paying off keep it up comrades
NGL, I thought these pieces of dung were supposed to be like high end rarities. I didn't realize they were actually putting them out en masse, or attempting too at least. Seeing 2 of them around town has me 
tfw you make a bunch of ugly, extremely unreliable cars that sell for an extremely high price and nobody buys them 
They’re piling up in used car lots in Hawaii.
Good luck clearing inventory when the next market is 2500 miles away lmao, get cyberfucked
Woke did this
That's 10000 too many though
every goddamned one of them is in the bay area then because you can't go anywhere without seeing one
Lots in Austin too.
Fedora M’lady ass car
Yet Tesla stock keeps going up?
It's almost like there's no correlation between how a company performs and it's stock price
I saw a lime green one the other day, gave the driver the finger as they passed. Feels good knowing EM has access to that data and his caged AI is being trained on it
How long until they're bricked?

Welcome to c/news! We aim to foster a book-club type environment for discussion and critical analysis of the news. Our policy objectives are:
-
To learn about and discuss meaningful news, analysis and perspectives from around the world, with a focus on news outside the Anglosphere and beyond what is normally seen in corporate media (e.g. anti-imperialist, anti-Zionist, Marxist, Indigenous, LGBTQ, people of colour).
-
To encourage community members to contribute commentary and for others to thoughtfully engage with this material.
-
To support healthy and good faith discussion as comrades, sharpening our analytical skills and helping one another better understand geopolitics.
We ask community members to appreciate the uncertainty inherent in critical analysis of current events, the need to constantly learn, and take part in the community with humility. None of us are the One True Leftist, not even you, the reader.
