Let’s be fair, a *ton* of Tesla shareholders don’t seem to be living in the real world either.

But yeah, they’ll TOTALLY justify that market cap. As long as they can shit Model 3's with no major production issues at a capacity they’ve never even demonstrated the ability to model, let alone produce.

Can we use it as an indicator of just how drugged out of their mind the people buying the stock are in comparison to the company’s real world asset value?

Depends on the size of said dumpster.

ive got a buttload of my own employers stock, bought decades ago when i was young and dumb, putting all the eggs in one basket. that said, i dont think its worth buying now. too damn expensive.

Well they’re not financial reporters, and honestly probably 80% of people don’t understand that stock price is pretty arbitrary and you can’t just directly compare them. Chalk it up to learning.

It’s just a bit disappointing since all the articles I’ve seen about Tesla’s stock price running up are using market cap as…

One thousand stars for you.

I wanted to post the same thing. Holy crap. A baseball is bigger than a golf ball but that doesn’t make it bigger than a dumpster of golf balls.

Don’t you come around here with your facts!

Allana is a brand new Jalopnik intern, I believe.

At least use market cap, jeez.

“I wasn’t doing an investigation or anything,” Blackwell told police. “I was just trying to find out exactly what happened.”

Spidey isn’t about killing.... he’s about making you suffer, living as a vegetable, with severe brain trauma/damage for the rest of your criminal life. Getting fed through a tube daily, having your bastard children visit you maybe once or twice before they just don’t care anymore and decides to pull the plug.

I have an opinion. Hamster can’t drive worth a crap. I’d like to know how many cars he has wrecked in the TG series and GT now.

Disclaimer: I’m obviously not blaming Kathy Griffin for this.

Yes, clearly 50 year olds should be in the same physical shape as the premier athletes they’re coaching.

Cadillac’s head of marketing has it half right, people WILL be lured by beautiful cars and they will buy them no matter how bad they are or how unreliable (I’m looking at you Jaguar, Range Rover, Maserati). But you have to have that beautiful car in the showroom for them to actually buy. You can’t expect to sell any…

The Escala is used in ads to help drive traffic to the dealer. It’s called the Cadillac Escala aid.
