Okay, and...? How does that justify a P/E ratio of 53, when GM is 6?
lol
The big auto makers only started making EVs until a few years ago, and Tesla lost money for almost
twenty years before finally turning a profit. And they can handle a few more years of losses while eating Tesla's lunch.
Plus, it isn't just the "legacy" companies competing here. BYD is already outselling Tesla.
EVs are not magic... and neither is the druggie at the helm of Tesla. Competition already exists, and has their own tech -- including hybrids, which (unfortunately IMO) are picking up a lot of the slack from slowing EV sales. Tesla's models are aging, with no substantial refreshes in sight. They squandered R&D on the Cybertruck, Twitter, SpaceX and other projects. Tesla does have a lot of cash on hand -- but it's trying very hard to blow a $54 billion hole in that cash hoard.
As to Musk? Again, he's clearly distracted, and it's increasingly clear that he isn't helping.
Oh, please. It's the Muskovites who are the delusional ones here, pretending that Tesla is a tech company when it's actually a car company. At this point, it's more of a meme stock than an accurately priced one.
Tesla could come out OK --
if, at a minimum, Musk actually gets his head in the game and stops screwing around with other projects; or hires a highly competent CEO and actually lets said CEO do the job. The problem is that neither of those seem even remotely likely, meaning that Tesla is likely to continue to lose sales, lose market share, and could very well end up as a bit player.
