I trade TSLA regularly and I know their financials well. Elon Musk is not someone I want anywhere near our financial system.
First if all the guy is a stock manipulator. He might be a brilliant engineer and maybe even a great showman/ marketing hype man. But all he does is pump his stock before a debt raise and dump it when it gets too frothy. You know he did a $3B convertible w Morgan Stanley for his so called "gigafactory". They timed a pump where MS did an upgrade w a $300 price target. And like a few days later they announced the raise and dumped the stock from $265. If I was an investor, I'd be pissed.
I'm not sure what the relevance of your response is. The thread is criticizing the financial system itself, and I brought up Tesla as an example of great technological innovation.
LOL if you believe Tesla has 25% margin w NON-GAAP
Please share your source and non-GAAP margin numbers for Tesla with us instead of using analogy. For the past 6 quarters, Tesla has had >25% margin reported. You do understand that non-GAAP allows more flexibility in reporting than GAAP does right?
