- iamtheworstdev 2y agono you're just seeing increased public backlash against Elon being taken out on Tesla.
- spacemadness 2y agoHN seems to be really struggling with the why here. The bubble that people live in on here is wild to me. Maybe you have issues with the tactics, but the why is pretty clear.
- tyleo 2y agoAgreed. The whole financial news market seems to be like this though. I see headlines like, “Tesla drops on Cybertruck quality issues.” Get real, everyone knows the brand is damaged.
- rapsey 2y agoTesla short sellers have been using the media for many years.
- outer_web 2y agoTesla sales plummet 70% yoy in [country] "It must be fud!"
- rafram 2y agoThe CEO is hardly an external actor. What you're seeing is the personality behind a personality-driven business steadily destroying his reputation, and his business along with it. Elon Musk's public image went from "real-life Iron Man genius inventor" to "Nazi salute guy" - his businesses can't just brush that off.
- Workaccount2 2y agoTesla is grossly over-valued even with Musk totally removed from the equation.
- Zigurd 2y agoYou think at Tesla's P/E ratio it's a "short and distort?" It's a meme stock that detonated because the meme field generator fell down the k-hole.
