The commerce secretary, Howard Lutnick, followed President Trump by supporting Elon Musk, urging people to buy shares in Tesla, Musk’s car company. “It’s unbelievable that this guy’s stock is this cheap. It’ll never be this cheap again,” Lutnick said Wednesday on Fox News.

Why are no ethics rules being enforced?.
We have become corrupt so quickly.

If you think Tesla can wait around 3-5 years to regain its market share without bankrupting, go ahead.

You realize there’s a flip side to this too, right? There are many people like me who are watching the current moment with awe and eternal gratitude and view Elon as a national hero.

I had never even considered buying an EV in the past, but I can say with 100% certainty that my next car purchase will be a Tesla.

I guess you don’t or can’t read polls.

Over 90% of Americans loathe Musk.

If you spent any time thinking, you might reflect upon what we all see that you do not.

But sure, go buy a Tesla. I am sure you can get a good price on one right now. 😂

Republican plans to end federal EV tax credits, weaken tailpipe pollution rules and slash funding for charging stations would boost emissions and shut down factories, experts say."

BYD announced 5 minutes charging for 250 miles.

Waymo has over a million self driving hours and product on the street. Tesla is still in the planning stage.

Every big promise is gone with Tesla. Now all they have outdate cars.

That are very expensive to insure and repair.

So you are just making stuff up?

Does not matter the US is like 15% of the car market. The rest of the world is moving on to EVs. Even in the US 10% of cars are EVs. It has already impacted oil demand worlds wide.

Under Biden car manufacturers invested 23 billion in EV factories. 200,000 manufacturing and related jobs tied to these factories. 37 congressional districts 32 of which are hardcore red states will lose these factories. Great way to increase US manufacturing by shutting down plants!

If the US manufacturers do not become competitive in the next 4 years with EVs they will die off. The ICE is at its peak in terms of performance. The energy efficient of the best ICE is 20%. Increasing performance of the ICE will require running generators and have electric motors.

Only two US car manufacturers are in the top 10 world wide. None are in the top 5. EV is the future but the Republican are doing everything they can kill US car manufacturers.

The US car manufacturers will be similar to the UK car manufacturers. Propped up by the US government to preserve industrial manufacturing.

I'm shorting TSLA now. Whenever a MAGA official asks the base to invest in something it's to grab as much money from them as possible.

If you think this poster is making this up, you must not have a Tesla. I've had two and was shocked at the insurance costs, with a perfect driving record. There is also the much higher registration cost in VA. I've had to pay $162 per year. I will say we haven't had to make any repairs, but the current one is brand new so i don't anticipate it. But I've been researching them for enough years to be well aware of the repair costs and they are HIGH.

You should invest in Chinese car companies because that’s who will succeed.

Wouldn’t Elon lose twitter if tesla stock goes too low? Didn’t he buy twitter with a loan based on his stock? How low can it go before he needs to sell his stock?

Trick question, he will be given a bailout if stock goes too low.

Ha indeed. Some reports have said if the price drops to $114 it will trigger sales requirements. Not sure how accurate those are.

The thing is its pretty close to what it was before the election so yes it's down YTD but I wouldn't use that as any indication that it is "cheap" now. Other more important indicators would be Tesla sales which seem to be declining suggesting the stock may have further to fall.

Cybertruck recall should do more wonders for the stock price.
