evilweasel posted:I think people are underestimating the degree to which this contagion could spread. Remember: Elon is the world's richest person because he has a massive stake in Tesla. Tesla stock has taken a beating, but it trades at about 60 times earnings today. For reference, the S&P trades about 20. Yeah, and the broader market is arguably rich, trading at 20x, particularly given that Fed is tightening monetary policy, fiscal spending from the government is more or less out of the question, and the economy is overall slowing. Moreover, other car companies trade at like 6-8x trailing earnings and have multiples that expand cyclically during periods of economic expansion and contract in downturns. I don't know that Tesla is necessarily the catalyst that brings everything down, but this is something of a precarious situation.
