Yes lots of research have been done in this area but not a single one predicts that 100% of all vehicle sales will be electric by 2030. EV Adoption Hits The Accelerator People will first under predict the impact of the technology then over estimate it as growth become exponential. IIRC even...

Did u even read what I wrote?

I'm not disagreeing with the fact that EV will become mainstream, I'm disagreeing that 100% of all cars will be electric in 12 years. Even if there is demand, EV adoption will be limited by supply. Manufacturers can't instantly flip a switch and churn out millions of electric cars worth hundreds...

Wow has anyone ever taken any financial or investing courses here? Companies only do 2 things with their profits. 1. Reinvest them. 2. Pay them to shareholder (dividends,buybacks,etc) IF the company do not pay back to their shareholders, they automatically reinvest all of their profits. If...

This is hilarious. Tesla shareholders act like this is a good thing. Rotfl.

A stock bubble paying a dividend of 6.3% and trading at a P/E ratio of 6? Lol.

No they're not. There's nothing preventing Daimler/BMW/other major auto players from switching to EV when the times come but there's simply not enough economic incentives to do it right now. Also, I'm not betting against electric cars. In the long run, EV will be as common as ICE and Tesla will...

lol, my sides. In all seriousness all transitions usually take a lot of time. It took 50 years for 30% of people to switch from coal to oil. Take a look at this graph: https://pbs.twimg.com/media/DaRChUJUwAIDPH0.jpg:large

You seem to have a very limited understanding of finance. That number is a function of the dividend, PE, and the ROE of the business. Assuming constant returns on equities, if the stock has a ROE of 16%, P/E of 6, and pays 0% (*zero percent*) in dividends, you'd double your money in roughly 5...

Depending on the source, current predictions estimate roughly 30-50% of all vehicles sold per year will be electric by 2040-2050. ICE vehicles will still dominate sales 20-30 years from now. Currently, Daimler/BMW stock is currently trading at 6 times earnings and pays 6%+ in dividend per year...

The Gigafactory, "economies of scale", striking lithium deals with suppliers from Chile/Australia/etc, I've heard it all.Tesla DOES NOT have a monopoly on lithium. There will obviously be increased demand, but all suppliers know this. Many lithium mining companies are expanding their capacity as...

Good thing the US only represents ~15% of Daimler's/BMW's revenue. EV sales are are currently insignificant, and the automotive giants will have no problem selling EVs at a loss to gain marketshare *while still being very profitable*. Tesla doesn't have a monopoly on lithium. They might be the...

I am not shorting or buying TSLA puts (markets can stay irrational longer than you can stay solvent) but I am fully loaded on Daimler and BMW stocks. Both of them will be launching their own EVs soon and I think Tesla will have a even harder time reaching profitability with increased competition.

If you're betting a substantial portion of your net worth on that, please sell and see an investment consultant. Emotional investing does not do well in the long run. TSLA is one of the riskiest stocks to own. You should be diversifying and indexing if you do not know how to properly value a...

I'm perplexed by the amount of irrationality that currently exists with Tesla. Investors will make up any reason to justify pouring in money for the company to incinerate. I never short or buy puts because I always abide by the following rule. "The Market Can Remain Irrational Longer Than You...
