And just like BYD, Tesla's Q1 profit for this year was also down 24% from Q4 2022. https://www.macrotrends.net/stocks/charts/TSLA/tesla/gross-profit https://ww

  Yes, but the point is Tesla reduced margins so they can continue growth (which they did), at the direct cost of competitors losing sales (which byd did).

    Again, the article says that BYD is up 400% so they did not lose sales. If you have some data that contradicts the article, you should post it.

      Their sales have gone down 20% compared to last quarter. What more data do you need?
      • wootland 4y ago
        Quarter to quarter comparisons make absolutely no sense because sales are cyclical, hence why they're comparing to the same quarter last year from which they've demonstrated 400% year-over-year growth.
        • sixQuarks 4y ago
          400% growth is profit, not sales. Tesla grew sales quarter over quarter while BYD went down 20%.
          • wootland 4y ago
            And again, quarter over quarter comparisons make zero sense.

              Look at their comment history - they're a Musk/Tesla stan. There is no changing their view.
