The Trouble with Tesla

…As a reality check, Tesla is worth twice as much as Ford* yet Ford made 6 million cars last year at a $7.6 billion profit while Tesla made 100,000 cars at a $2 billion loss.
Further, Ford has $12 billion in cash held for “a rainy day” while Tesla will likely run out of money in the next 3 months…

From >>Extraordinary Popular Delusions and the Madness of crowds<< by Charles Mackay:
"Men, it has been well said, think in herds; it will be seen that they go mad in herds, while they only recover their senses slowly, one by one."

Yes, probably all true. I wouldn’t buy the stock or the car for those reasons (although I do like the car). I really like and admire Elon Musk too.
Everything he does (visionary as it may be) depends on federal govt largesse.
There will come a day when that gets pruned.
If you squint hard enough…maybe a big ass topping pattern?
