It’s pretty amazing how people have been so wrong about Tesla and just can’t handle the success the company and TSLA stock have had. It’s bound to go to 0 soon...

Tesla joining the S&P is a prime case of careful what you wish for. It’s volatility will get crushed and it will bleed down. The days of gaming Tesla’s call option chain are over.
Full Disclosure: Not short currently but have in the past. Also been long at times.

Their revenues were $9B in Q3. This year, credits made up roughy 7% of revenue.
Revenue and profit are not the same thing though I think we all know that now don’t we?
The fact is, that no, without selling credits, Tesla would not have been profitable, he is correct.

How much of Tesla’s Capex is funded by profits and how much is funded by shareholder diluting capital raises?

I wish we would get a spacex ipo. It would be another stock that goes to the moon and people complain about

Revenues are not profits. They had $311 million in profits. They had $397 million in credits. They have not had any profits in the last year without credits.
I am not shorting it. The stock is not a stock that can be shorted by me because there is no logic to it. I expect it to continue to go up, so I have no desire to short it.

Seriously. So if a company has revenue of a dollar and expenses of $10 you think that company is making money? I have never heard anyone think that way. I’ll refine the question. By making money, I mean profits, not revenue.

It would be the first company to live up to both sides of the cliche.

If you don't understand the difference between revenue and profits you should probably press the pause button on investing in single stocks. I'm honestly not trying to be rude.

There is logic to it though. The people buying shares do not have price or value requirements for the equity there's inelastic demand for shares of a stock with low float. For shareholders (like Cathy Woods) the narrative is more important than price.

In financial terms, making money is being profitable (vs losing money).
Just saw this visual and found it interesting (courtesy of Axios). Tesla has shipped only half a million cars this year apparently.

...but Tesla is more than cars right? 
Posted on 12/22/20 at 10:54 am to DVinBR
Well ya. Robotaxis. I can't wait until my car can make me money while I'm in the office.

I'm no expert by any means, but what intrigues me about Tesla is their ability to raise capital relative to their peers. Add in the fact that electric cars are not going anywhere and are only going to become more and more normal as time goes on, and I like their ability to stay ahead of the other companies in that movement. It all hinges on them continuing to grow their sales over time. But, I think that is a realistic possibility.
If my logic is flawed I'd be happy to hear counter points so I can learn more
