GOOD JOB!
Wow, it's almost like incentives *DO* matter, just like they said. Now if they just had avoided this "investment" of taxpayer funds (admittedly better than Biden's Solyndra bet) in the first place, we could all be happier.
https://canada.autonews.com/retail/nissan-leaf-sales-collapse-ontario-after-incentive-axedSince the Ford government in Ontario in July ended rebates of up to $14,000 and the final recipients were registered Sept. 10, sales of the Nissan Leaf have all but collapsed.
There is little question that rebates are essential to selling EVs, but no one really knew just how much until now.
Tesla is toast.
How will Elon ensure a stock "price spike" this time?
Growth-based market fanaticism might have run its course in general.

No problem. Elon will do this himself to. He just bumps up his 100 hour work week to 170 hours and Tesla will be fine.
The demand is "insanely high" ... but only until you find out the price?
Tesla CEO Elon Musk discussed the issue of demand for Tesla cars on an investor call Wednesday, stating that demand is “insanely high,” but that people just cannot afford Tesla’s cars.
Tesla CEO Elon Musk is optimistic if nothing else, as proven by the Tesla earnings call this week in which Musk made a number of promises and projections for the future of the electric car manufacturer. At one point during the call, Musk predicted a 50 percent increase in Tesla sales stating:
2019 is going to be an amazing year for Tesla. As I mentioned, we are expecting to increase sales by 50%. Perhaps could be a lot more than 50%, but I think 50% is a very reasonable number. But that’s crazy growth for the automotive industry.
The demand for — the demand for Model 3 is insanely high. The inhibitor is affordability. It’s just like people literally don’t have the money to buy the car. It’s got nothing to do with desire. They just don’t have enough money in their bank account. If the car can be made more affordable, the demand is extraordinary.
To the original question: In a Ponzi scheme, only the very first investors have a chance to make money. In TSLA, almost all investors -- millions -- have made money. Some of us invested less than $10,000 and made enough to buy a Tesla last year.
"Their poor build-quality is what is holding them up," Munro said. "The car has too many parts, and too many parts cause the problems you see."
That's not surprising at all.
