The chinese companies are being subsidized by variety of subsidies and regulations that make them price competitive. Since they produce until the subsidies run out, or at least produce more than demand justifies, the car companies can offer cheaper vehicles that outcompete their competition at market. The non-chinese companies just need to survive this state of the market for another 5 to 10 years for when this investment model runs its course and the car market is less over saturated. In the mean time its why not let the chinese market find out what works and doesn't (like an emergency side launching battery pack security system) so we can skip to what does.

I love how RH says your put expires today, like it hasn't been erased from existence overnight lol. That alert when the market opens is going to say "lol your put is cooked, bro. Pack it up."

For anyone feeling bad they ever lost out on a fortune, here’s a story My dad used to work one block over from Wizards of the Coast, the first licensed US distributor for the original Pokemon card wave.  My dad went out to lunch with some of the folks there since they shared the same office strip. He became friends with some of them. Everytime they came out with a new set in the 2000s, like the Jungle set or EX booster packs, his friends would give him these sets that were hard to find in stores since they were considered first wave products for the big retailers. The employees got them as novelty gifts sometimes and they handed them out to family and friends. They were worth about probably $3.50 resale at the time. Every Friday after I got off school, he’d give a couple to me if I behaved that week. This went on for about 3-4 years and through a dozen different set releases until Wizards of the West Coast lost their US Pokemon licensing rights sometime in 2004. That’s when I stopped getting new packs. Dumbass me tore open every single one of those factory first/first edition shadowless packs four years in a row, from Pre K to 3rd grade. I must’ve had a couple hundred of them up at one point because I never had to buy Pokémon cards ever. And I had several chests full of a dozen-per-pack cards, which meant I had opened hundreds of packs as a kid. I looked up the current market value for rare shadowless packs from 1999-2004 and all the same stuff I had gotten from that era. My net worth as of 2025 should have been about 800k-1.8M and appreciating annually if my dad had just kept them to himself for twenty years.
