Some are urging a Tesla buy w/an almost 75% drop of TSLA stock since Jan'22, but consider the "Earnings Per Share" in Q3'22:

Tesla: $1.05
Microsoft: $2.2833
Apple: $1.9317

It's worse for Telsa when you compare Net Profit:

Tesla: $3.33b
Microsoft: $16.7b
Apple: $19.4b

Tesla IS a sound company, but the value didn't come from EPS or net profit. It came from a BELIEF in the vision of Elon Musk.

The share price reflects what Musk's Twitter misadventure has done to that belief on Wall Street.

@PadreSJ this doesn’t even take into account the dividends msft and appl pay. In contrast it seems like Tesla needs people to put down big bucks for pre orders giving the company free loans from customers.
