I’ll believe it when I see it.

Their stock price represents a cult like following rather than the actual value of the company though.

They make cars and people buy them. They can’t keep up with demand. That is the opposite of a failing product. If they made cars and no one bought them, then they would be a failure.

Production is an engineering and operations problem, it can be solved.

What is troubling is the recent suit against Musk alleging he was manipulating the stock price to hurt people who shorted the stock.

They have their production lines hitting 5K-6K cars a week. They seem like they are sustaining that. That is the point they claim to be making money.

Their power pack buisness is starved for batteries not customers.
