Tesla raised $2.7 billion (really $2.3 after fees), however, if you assume that past debt will be paid and cash reserves return to $0 then the net to Tesla was around $500MM. A non-bailout bailout if you will. They will not meet CapEx forecasted and they are not spending their forecast in R&D...

Tesla raised $2.7b but assuming the past debt will be paid off and cash reserves are returned to zero (was minus $1.5b Q12019) the amount left over is $800MM (read the prospectus). Sort of a non-bailout bailout. Tesla does not have enough cash to do what it wants to do. They are behind on their...

Did you ever take a look at these company's financials? Ford, VW, MB, BMW, GM - They are all profitable companies with strong cash reserves. Even F made $1.1b in net income Q12019, Daimler $2.1b, BMW $0.5B, VW $3b, and GM $2b.

Y You need a dose of facts. First: Tesla's real cash position. Tesla is burning cash. Tesla sold new debt in large part to pay off old debt and the net proceeds of the $2.7 billion raised this month will work out to be only ~$0.8 billion assuming the past debt is paid and Tesla’s working...

Fact remains that Tesla will have serious competition and cash problems in the near future and I would not discount MB, BMW and VW's commitment to EVs as quickly as I would GM and Ford. You can believe AlixPartner or not but Tesla will not sell all these cars. - "pure electric models will...

In Europe, the major oil companies who have national networks of service stations along transportation corridors that can easily accommodate electric chargers have either purchased or partnered with charging infrastructure. With gas/diesel approaching $7 a gallon, combined with major gov't...

If Bloomberg is right then IMO, Tesla has awoken the sleeping giants and although they have been incredibly slow to respond, late 2020 could see a scenario where the buyer of an EV has legitimate options without long waiting lines from companies who have economies of scale and vast manufacturing...

MB has not released range numbers and IMO the range will not equal to Tesla and IMO is probably the most important feature. Also, where in the USA is the charging network with Tesla type superchargers? Absolutely essential if you want to go on a trip that is greater than ~50% of the range? IMO...

Yet another billionaire in love with himself that really will bring nothing new to the game. Even after he markets his car, if ever, the Teslas will still be the safest cars in America and have the longest range. Even if the range is equal, where in the USA is the charging network with Tesla...

WTF cares? The range is not equal to Tesla and is probably the most important feature. Also, where in the USA is the charging network with Tesla type superchargers? Absolutely essential if you want to go on a trip that is greater than ~50% of the range? IMO looks like it is a very expensive...
