OK, choose it if you like.
No, you'd have negative gross margins so that would be silly! Tesla has gross margins > 20%
I know you understand that gross margin is what's left after just physically building the car prior to deducting all the other costs of running that business which last year meant $924mil gross profit. Unfortunately operating expenses were $1,640 and interest expense was $119mil which are a couple of numbers ignored when using price to sales and gross margin as valuation measures
I don't intend to argue, if you're happy investing based on gross margins and price to sales for this business that's your prerogative. The only reason I even bother to look at this thread and post is thinking perhaps a counter balancing view might add value to a thread that appears to be about investing.
As soon as you have something to post worth reading for all of us I know I'll then appreciate your contribution. If you think anything you said in your last few posts is somehow enlightening for the visitors of this forum/thread, think again. I'm all for counter arguments but I've yet to see a short say anything intelligent in this thread.
