Elon Musk once scoffed at the notion that BYD could compete with his company. Now, the automaker run by billionaire Wang Chuanfu is poised to be the new No. 1 in electric vehicles.
Funnily enough the TSLA stock is 800 billion and the BYD stock is 75 billion.
That’s because Tesla is extremely overvalued, because Musk is a con man, who promises Tesla will lead AI for fully autonomous driving, and basically promises that when that happens, it’s nearly infinite money. In reality they are currently #4 at best in AI for self driving.
I’m guessing BYD is valued more by criteria similar to VW and Toyota.
PS: Yes I know half of infinite is still infinite. But I hope you all understand what I mean. 😋
Until this year, most of the analysts weren’t really including FSD in any of their projections. They were projecting Tesla maintaining the really high margins instead of high margins. Some are adding AI in now.
When the really high margins became high margins, things changed pretty rapidly.
Of course retail investors amd what actually happens is different, and it’s hard to deny there must be some impact beyond what analysts are saying, but I don’t think it’s as much FSD as people think it is.
Edit: analysts weren’t even including the energy business either, but thats about to change too.
Without value as an AI company too, there is no sensible way Tesla can be valued as high as it is. Tesla should basically surpass the 10 leading car makers combined, if it should make sense by merely making cars as we know it today.
Can’t you also name this brand. The majority of the people here know it anyway.

Tesla stock is a pyramid scheme.

It’s literally the original headline from the article, which is considered good posting ethics. Why would you want posters to editorialize headlines?
How would that majority here know it? I assume most here aren’t Chinese, and these cars are pretty new to most markets outside of China.
I personally had never heard of them, so thanks for mentioning the ticker so I could look it up.
What are each of their earnings and prospective earnings?
Market cap isn’t 1:1 with units sold
Teslas sept 2023 q3 operating margin was 11.18% and peaked at 16 before all the cuts. This is while ramping 2 factories.
BYDs latest seems to be 5.33% and peaked around 9.5 in 2018 and has been under 8 since. I don’t know what BYDs factory ramping situation is.
Ford for the past couple years has hovered a little above and below 4. Was worse further back.
