prefer bloomberg tbh, I worked for him during his campaign run. If people actually spent 5 minutes look into his campaign site instead of just regurgitating social media talking points. You'll find his policy proposals are extremely liberal, more support for low income family, investment subsidy for renewable and ev. shift the tax burder away from lower class to high income earner. And the fact every single year he donate and support aid to developing countries more money than taco entire nw prior to being reelected. every single year for the last 15 years. Mike is just really bad at pr tbh. Despite done so much goods, people still harp on his past mistake despite donating tens of billions. More than all candidates have done combined twice over. Modern day andrew carneige imho

In market for 2024 or 2025 used EVs. Prices dropping, good time to be a buyer. A Blazer EV I was half assed looking at just dropped like $2k in the last few days. At this rate I may be able to get a 2024 loaded BMW ix for like $40k before long.

Who wants ev with this administration. They headed to bankruptcy

Area man buys puts on EV company ahead of ev tax credit expiration. Hilarity ensues.

Factors contributing to decreased profitability Reduced profits: Tesla’s Q3 2025 profit was down 37% to $1.4 billion, while revenue rose 12% to $28.1 billion. Falling sales: The company has seen a record drop in sales in recent quarters due to increased competition. Decreased profit margins: Profit margins have been thinning, making the company’s core business less profitable. Loss of credit sales: Tesla’s profits are no longer heavily dependent on the sale of regulatory credits, which were once a major source of income. Increased costs: Rising costs from tariffs on imported parts and other expenses have also impacted profitability. Brand damage: Some analysts believe that damage to the brand from CEO Elon Musk’s political activities is hurting sales. Tesla’s response to the challenges Job cuts: The company has announced thousands of job cuts in response to falling demand. New models: Tesla is speeding up the launch of new models to compete with rivals. Price cuts: Tesla has been forced to cut prices to stimulate sales. Potential impact on the future Loss of profits: If the company’s profit margins continue to decline and regulatory credit sales disappear, Tesla could report quarterly losses once again. Loss of market share: Some analysts believe that Tesla’s market share will decline as other automakers enter the EV market, making it harder to maintain profitability.

Not really... puts are historically undepriced relative to realised EV. You only have unlimited risk if you're just straight shorting equities with no hedge.

Teslas China sales fall 9.9% October YoY [https://www.reuters.com/business/autos-transportation/teslas-china-made-ev-sales-fall-99-yy-october-2025-11-04](https://www.reuters.com/business/autos-transportation/teslas-china-made-ev-sales-fall-99-yy-october-2025-11-04)

Well. He kinda caused the sharp drop in EV sales in Europe. So why would they agree?

---

Ev sales are down after the tax credit was cut. Elon will just buy up his Teslas and distribute them to spaceX and grok etc. then also bribe them stock analyst to jack up the value of Tesla.

---

Yeah even if the compensation package includes Elon gets to have regular sex with all the shareholders’ wives and daughters the whole thing would still pass with a landslide lmao. Tesla shareholders know the only way to keep the valuation in fantasy land is to make sure Elon is happy, the second he leaves the stock will just crater. With Elon attached to the company, Tesla is whatever company you want to convince yourself it it’s, without him, it’s just a mediocre EV company.
