    Tesla, TSLA & the Investment World: the Perpetual Investors' Roundtable

    Tesla, TSLA & the Investment World: the Perpetual Investors' Roundtable

    Fine, reasonable enough. The article would then have been better served with discussion about safety as well as numbers about potentially existing and planned capacity as well as estimates on prices and/or price development.
