@Ody @RollingStone hopefully they’re bankrupt completely in the next few months and someone less insane buys it for pennies.

Hopefully a post-Musk #Tesla figures out how to build cars that don't spontaneously combust.

@Ody @RollingStone other car companies apparently to be able to. Then again Tesla is a carbon credits reseller not a car company.

It's what now?

I did not know this.

@Ody @RollingStone Tesla makes electric cars usually at a loss, their main source of income is selling the carbon credits they earn for these EV cars to other companies like GM, Ford, etc. Not only are Tesla sales down these other companies are now starting to produce their own EV products. Tesla is in trouble going forward.

@CindisPLace @RollingStone

Huh. I didn't know EV credits could be bought and sold. That seems counterintuitive.

@Ody @RollingStone

I agree the whole thing seems shady and counter productive.

Tesla Stock Breakdown: By The Numbers, How Does Tesla Make Money In 2022?

We all consider Tesla an electric vehicle maker, but this company has other lines of business - from tax credits to solar panels to crypto. We examine Tesla’s financials to see how the company actually generates revenue and profits. No hype.

Having read that, I'm shocked investors were so gung-ho on this company. It's a ticking time bomb.

@Ody @RollingStone exactly. What’s the draw? This was always a house of cards.
