Tesla is giving forward looking statements all the time that boosts their stock price and then later turns out to be completely wrong. In the past this was cracked down on by the SEC, but there is a carve out in the laws for REALLY big companies so they can lie with impunity under the guise of “corporate puffery”. Should REALLY big companies be held to the same ethical standards as regular ones, it could destabilize the whole economy. So if we all believe that Tesla is valued at trillions of dollars, it will be so, no matter how much they actually make

Can't be that, it's not a car company anymore. It's the xAI merger rumors.

Everyone remembers the 2 million order volume for the Cybertruck.

As long as Tesla has production pauses in China because of abysmally sales, the, the entire waiting list is artificial. They closed during CNY as is logical, but they had at least 2 other production pauses already after the Junpier launch, so sales are really, really bad.

That was my first thought as well. You can claim that when production capacity is low.

Musk in 2023 said Cybertruck demand was "'so far off the hook, you can't even see the hook" (which isn't even the right expression).
Must have been a very small "hook".

It couldn't even hang a 3x4 picture framed in Balsawood.

Alternatively, they keep producing without demand and offload them to another entity just to juice the annual statements
