Tesla produces real things, yes, any they have already driven change in the car industry. But even if Tesla displaces all other carmakers, which isn't likely, there is a total limit to the car market.
Another reason to tell why Tesla's stock is in bubbly conditions is the timing. Why is it soaring up right now? Is there some event that makes it more likely that people buy cars? No. The current events actually point towards the opposite direction of a recession, where people don't buy new cars. But they are overruled by different events which are more about more about money not knowing where it should go.
This video makes some very interesting points on the "too much money in the markets" question: https://youtu.be/Im0rzTWplwU https://youtu.be/Im0rzTWplwU

- woodandsteel 6y agoI have no idea whether or not Tesla's stock is over-priced. However, it is definitely more than an auto company. It has a solar division, and it make electricity storage systems for home and utilities. Also, there are strong indications it is about to go into manufacturing li-ion cells. It seems to me it is quite possible that at some point it will be worth a trillion. Let me add it is interesting that people who say Tesla is over-valued so often make this mistake, even though most of what I said is widely known. Perhaps people are being intentionally misleading.
- pete762 6y agoIf it is widely known, then there is no money to be made
- woodandsteel 6y agoGood point, so maybe that's their motive.
