Tesla is a $1.3 trillion company that sold fewer cars this year than last year.
And fewer last year than the year before.
That should tell you everything you need to know.
2 consecutive years of declining deliveries. Down 9% in 2025 to 1.63 million vehicles. The steepest annual drop in the company's history.
And 2026 is starting even worse - US sales down 17% in January, Europe down 44% across major markets.
France down 42%. Netherlands down 67%. Norway down 88%.
BYD passed them as the global EV leader. In the UK, BYD outsold Tesla 2 to 1 last month.
The brand is in FREEFALL.
Brand Finance measured a 36% collapse in Tesla's brand value last year - down to $27.6 billion, less than half its 2023 peak. In California, their most important US market, share dropped from 11.6% to 9.9%.
And the stock trades at 365 times trailing earnings.
Let me say that differently:
Tesla earned $3.8 billion last year. The market is valuing those earnings at $1.3 trillion. You are paying $365 for every dollar this company earns.
The bull case has completely abandoned the car business. It's all robotaxis and Optimus robots now. They discontinued the Model S and Model X. They told investors on the last earnings call to stop focusing on vehicle deliveries and start thinking about "transportation as a service."
So in other words: please ignore the business we actually have and value us on the business we MIGHT have someday.
Trust me, every time management tells you to look over there instead of over here... LOOK OVER HERE.
The car business is deteriorating. Margins are compressing. Competition from BYD, Volkswagen, and a dozen Chinese manufacturers is intensifying quarter by quarter. The $7,500 federal EV tax credit is gone, which effectively raised the price of every Tesla overnight.
And instead of addressing any of that, they're doubling capex to $20 billion this year - almost entirely directed at AI and autonomous driving infrastructure.
So you have a company with shrinking revenue, shrinking deliveries, a damaged brand, and intensifying competition pouring $20 billion into a technology that hasn't been proven at commercial scale.
On 365 times earnings.
Even if you give them the most generous robotaxi assumptions imaginable (full regulatory approval, nationwide deployment, dominant market share) you still can't justify this valuation. The present value of that optionality doesn't come close to $1.3 trillion when the core business is going backwards.
I think this stock goes down 90% from here.
Not because Tesla is worthless. They'll sell cars. The energy storage business has potential. But the equity is priced for a future that isn't coming on the timeline the market expects.
A $37 stock. That's where the math takes you when you strip out the narrative and price what actually exists.
I know that sounds extreme. But 45 years of doing this has taught me something:
When you can see the seams on the fastball, you SWING.
I can see the seams.

@OneBadDude_ Dump Dear Leader and you'll have a chance. He's not moving on after 2028 so accept that his endorsements aren't going to help you win.

@RachelBitecofer Sugar was expensive. You used it judiciously. Sugar companies needed to advertise it as “energy food”.

Because when Hoover ran on a chicken in every pot, there was no chickens in many people’s pots.
Also in the 30s you ate meat once a week or maybe even less- on holidays and no one had invented processed food yet.

If we don’t pass SAVE America, Democrats win in November
If we pass SAVE America, we have a chance
Failure is not an option

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: If republicans in the senate fail to pass the SAVE America Act, Democrats will take control.

@PawlowskiMario There's no need to 25th him if he can't be convicted. He's beat 2 impeachments already.
The Cabinet will also drink the Kool Aid before turning on the President.
English

Here is my prediction for Trump’s presidency 🇺🇸:
They will wait for the midterms, then, if Democrats win overwhelmingly, his own cabinet will 25th Trump and put JD Vance in. That way Democrats won’t be able to impeach him or go after him in criminal courts because he will be declared unable to stand trial due to his insanity.
If elections are rigged by the GOP and they win the midterms, they will run Trump as a walking corpse until he falls apart.

@blackhawk1539 @PeterHotez @conspiracyb0t For thousands of years children had organic food, exercise, and love. 1 in 5 didn’t survive childhood until vaccine practically eliminated the risk of dying from communicable diseases.

@conspiracyb0t Yeah Dr. Hotez has done a lot of good things in his life. A simple Google search would tell you that. Respectfully he can fucking enjoy a burger with his daughter who is on the spectrum if he wants. I don’t give a shit what some bald guy wants to lecture him on.

@RepJackKimble It’s a battle of the incompetents. May the least capable win!

Just going to keep posting this to counter the ridiculous bullshit until someone makes me stop.
The Special Counsel investigation uncovered extensive criminal activity
•The investigation produced 37 indictments; seven guilty pleas or convictions; and compelling evidence that the president obstructed justice on multiple occasions. Mueller also uncovered and referred 14 criminal matters to other components of the Department of Justice.
•Trump associates repeatedly lied to investigators about their contacts with Russians, and President Trump refused to answer questions about his efforts to impede federal proceedings and influence the testimony of witnesses.
•A statement signed by over 1,000 former federal prosecutors concluded that if any other American engaged in the same efforts to impede federal proceedings the way Trump did, they would likely be indicted for multiple charges of obstruction of justice.
Russia engaged in extensive attacks on the U.S. election system in 2016
•Russian interference in the 2016 election was “sweeping and systemic.”[1]
•Major attack avenues included a social media “information warfare” campaign that “favored” candidate Trump[2] and the hacking of Clinton campaign-related databases and release of stolen materials through Russian-created entities and Wikileaks.[3]
•Russia also targeted databases in many states related to administering elections gaining access to information for millions of registered voters.[4]
The investigation “identified numerous links between the Russian government and the Trump Campaign” and established that the Trump Campaign “showed interest in WikiLeaks's releases of documents and welcomed their potential to damage candidate Clinton”
•In 2015 and 2016, Michael Cohen pursued a hotel/residence project in Moscow on behalf of Trump while he was campaigning for President.[5]Then-candidate Trump personally signed a letter of intent.
•Senior members of the Trump campaign, including Paul Manafort, Donald Trump, Jr., and Jared Kushner took a June 9, 2016, meeting with Russian nationals at Trump Tower, New York, after outreach from an intermediary informed Trump, Jr., that the Russians had derogatory information on Clinton that was “part of Russia and its government’s support for Mr. Trump.”[6]
•Beginning in June 2016, a Trump associate “forecast to senior [Trump] Campaign officials that WikiLeaks would release information damaging to candidate Clinton.”[7] A section of the Report that remains heavily redacted suggests that Roger Stone was this associate and that he had significant contacts with the campaign about Wikileaks.[8]
•The Report described multiple occasions where Trump associates lied to investigators about Trump associate contacts with Russia. Trump associates George Papadopoulos, Rick Gates, Michael Flynn, and Michael Cohen all admitted that they made false statements to federal investigators or to Congress about their contacts. In addition, Roger Stone faces trial this fall for obstruction of justice, five counts of making false statements, and one count of witness tampering.
•The Report contains no evidence that any Trump campaign official reported their contacts with Russia or WikiLeaks to U.S. law enforcement authorities during the campaign or presidential transition, despite public reports on Russian hacking starting in June 2016 and candidate Trump’s August 2016 intelligence briefing warning him that Russia was seeking to interfere in the election.
•The Report raised questions about why Trump associates and then-candidate Trump repeatedly asserted Trump had no connections to Russia.[9]

@jonathanfg97120 @atrupar It’s crazy to even think it’s any kind of problem. An undocumented person is risking a felony, jail time, and large fine to cast one ballot. Second, anyone hoping for citizenship or trying not to be deported has no incentive to get involved with an election.
English

@atrupar I challenge anyone to find just 10 officially proven examples of illegal immigrants voting in the 2020 or 2024 Presidential election.
Let's see the "official" data, not your f**king memes or what "Joe Blow on YouTube" says.
Your move.

@cturnbull1968 If the Democrats are so good a cheating how did they lose the White House, House of Representatives, and the Senate in 2024?
English

I’d like to see hard evidence for this, Kyle.
Or is this just a gut feeling, much like the ones that Trump relies on to handle our economy and foreign policy?
Kyle Becker@kylenabecker
The Democrats just outdid themselves. Not only did they refuse to back voter ID, they actually proposed a nationwide BAN on photo voter IDs. It couldn’t be any clearer that they are cheating in our elections.

@FGoldwyn @HeartlandSignal I’m a USAF veteran and RN. The military does not do prelicensure training. Med techs get great education in many skills but they don’t get a complete nursing education nor are able to pass the NCLEX-RN license exam.
Military RNs are already licensed.
English

Well #Kansas could start by accepting Nurses trained by the US Military. High quality nurses are trained by the military and serve in hospitals, military clinics and in combat hospitals. When they leave the military, not a single state allows them to serve as nurses unless they go back through a qualification program and pass an exam. If anyone has been a #MilitaryNurse, they should be allowed and accepted to work in any State in the Union.

Kansas State Rep. Sean Tarwater (R-Stilwell) endorses a bill to lower the standards for nursing school instructors, saying it doesn't matter who is teaching nursing students.
"Does it really matter who or how the material is delivered or the subject matter is delivered? ... I don't care if you learned it on YouTube. Okay? Let's get more nurses out there."
English

@HeartlandSignal @ArthurCaplan Show me you have no idea how nurses are educated without specifically saying you have no idea how nurses are educated.
These folks have complete disrespect and ignorance of what makes a professional nurse become a professional nurse.

Here’s what I don’t understand about the SAVE Act, Senator, and I’m hoping you can explain it to me like I’m Lauren Boebert in alphabet class.
If there’s so many illegal aliens voting and it’s such a pressing problem, how did you guys manage to win the 2024 election?
Mike Lee@BasedMikeLee
Have you heard a legitimate argument against the SAVE America Act? I have yet to hear one.
