The same article says Tesla is close to becoming profitable in Q3. If not for Elon's insistence to not raise capital at bargain basement prices, these headlines would not be there.
In any case, as a shareholder, of be happy to see a 2 to 5% dilution to put nonsense like this behind and accelerate the China factory. But I am not Elon Musk. So what do I know.
How does that even work? Why does Tesla need cash on hand to be profitable? I thought cash flow was separate from net profit. Wouldn't a request for delayed payment be just as effective and less effort? It's not like suppliers have cash piles just lying around...
So confused....
