"Tesla should reasonably trade at a P/E ratio of up to 15 maybe, to be valued for reality. So divide Tesla’s current share price of $378 by about 7, to get a share price of $54."
So much focus on "self-driving" which is not proven (at least by Tesla's approach) to scale, and fundamentally it's a car manufacturer, not a tech company
I've read Wolfstreet for a while now and have yet to read any positive news from it. It's mostly warnings about how bad something is without much balance. I guess if you are down on everything then you are bound to be right sometimes. It's like the broken clock that's right twice a day. It's true but it's not very useful.
This Tesla analysis is something that could have been done anytime within the last 10+ yrs and still come up with the same conclusion: It's overpriced. Yet, it continues to go up. How much should it be worth? Whatever buyers are willing to pay. No accounting analysis will give you the right answer.

"Full self driving" has been repeatedly promised for over a decade --- and it's still years out if ever using the Musk approach.
But the real mark of a con artist is someone who seeks a political solution to a technical problem.
