Tesla Price Prediction: A Blow-off Top Followed by Epic Collapse
Hertz Announced an initial order of 100,000 Tesla’s to be filled by year-end 2022.
Tesla skyrocketed from a $913-billion market cap (October 22, 2021) to $1.21 trillion.
The bullish response added $300 billion, implying a $3-million price tag per vehicle ordered (not sold).
Tesla Daily Chart
Tesla shares skyrocketed above $1000 on the Hertz announcement. Tesla is now worth more than all the auto manufacturers combined. More on that later.
Tesla Market Cap
Gross Profit
Let’s say Tesla makes a generous $20,000 profit per vehicle ($20,000 X 100,000). That indicates a gross profit of $2 billion, far shy of the $300-billion increase. What is going on here?
Ford Motor Company
By comparison, Ford Motor Company currently sports a $72-billion market cap, so Tesla adding $300 billion in market cap is like adding four (4) Ford Motor Companies.
