Most recent story of Tesla's profitability was built around Musk's manufacturing innovations, that will make Model 3 much cheaper to produce. Experts disagreed, got fired, and alien dreadnought continued. It was such a huge failure, that to this day, portion of Model 3 production is happening a tent. With forklifts, leaking roof and space-heaters.
Tesla now has new profitability story - Musk's innovations in FSD, will make them a lot of money, and make cars appreciating assets. Experts disagreed, got fired, and FSD continues. Wonder how will that end?
- tomcam 7y agoI could be wrong here, but I believe experts will disagree and get fired.
- spookthesunset 7y agoFSD is snake oil and is a distraction. In no way will a Tesla ever be an “appreciating asset”. Ever. Full stop. Tesla would be wise to focus on being a car company first and foremost.
