    Yep nothing is wrong with this picture.. move along move along move along.....


    Whats even insane is that Walmart has a recorded $500,000,000,000 more in revenue than tesla.


    The relative valuation of Tesla to Walmart is astounding when considering the financial profiles of both companies. In its latest fiscal year, Walmart recorded $500 billion more in revenue than Tesla.


    But in a world of near-zero interest rates, growth is scarce, and investors are willing to pay up for it. Case in point: Tesla featured a price-earnings multiple of 1030x as of Thursday

    you're not pricing in the fact that tesla will make every mode of transportation from now until 200 years from now.

    Ohhhhh I forget these 200 year out future predictions is what warrants a valuation worthy of non stop one directional moves.

    Only cause the Fed is literally buying TSLA shares to pump up the market and in doing so giving Elon 8Bil recently I think it was. *

    * is TSLA part of any index worth pumping up??

    Let's completely strip out the government credits it gives tesla, the sales incentives that have boosted its sales to.500,000 units a year and the sale of carbon emissions credits to other automakers .

    These 2 pieces alone if substracted from tesla would still have tesla trading under $100.

    It's based on Future potential, it's a premium your paying on the basis TSLA could be the next FORD only better, obviously FORD is old, so no premium.

    Its a sucky shit system, but as we all try to make money from it here, guess partially our fault for enabling it.
