People who can afford expensive ICE generally don't need auto loans. Interest rates have had a big impact on the auto market (and housing).

Yeah, if this was "just" a car company, the whole investment dynamic would change. As we all know (at least most of us), Tesla is so much more - autos, energy, technology and more led by the most consequential CEO and entrepreneur of his time. I recently saw my first Cybertruck in the wild and...

Every time I see a Reuters story I think of the famous Jim Cramer video and how hedgies and others attempt to manipulate media outlets and other sources to affect stock prices. Somebody should investigate Reuters with their anonymous sources and undue influence.

Wait, don't tell me - was it Reuters reporting this story?

Cue the sad trombone with each post.

We all want information - good and bad. The poster seems to focus only the bad for some strange reason...

You provide thoughtful, well-reasoned posts. I am more of the short and perhaps thought-less type. I believe in Tesla/Tsla and have the fortune of having been an investor for 10+ years. I have made a nice profit as a result of my Tsla investments over the years. If I had initially invested...

Keeping in mind your need to prove someone wrong on the internet based on your avatar, what is your take on Tsla? Why are you here on this thread? Do you still believe in Tsla as an investment?

Got your point. How are the other EV stocks doing comparatively? Tesla is the clear cut leader. Also, Tesla is not limited to selling cars as other companies are. Cars are also particularly sensitive to interest rate hikes. Perhaps astute analysis could have predicted the rapid increase in...
