Comments by "Maxwell Benz" (@Tential1) on "How Tesla Fumbled" video.

  1. You say that, as we set another sales record, the north American profit record, etc. Lol.... Yes, you're right, the designs are old... Yet..... We still keep selling em.... Just like how people cry about expensive hermes /Louis Vuitton. Just because you don't want it, doesn't mean someone else doesn't want it. You like refreshed designs? I like money. If we actually have issues, then I care. But if it's just the dumb headlines you normies read because opening a companies financials is too hard? Then I don't care. 50% yoy EPS growth.... That's what matters. When Ford and GM have 0% revenue growth regularly, I don't care what they do. I don't make money with zero growth. Tesla makes money. So I want the vehicles? No. Do I care? No. I care about money. And Tesla delivers more money every year. This year, we'll do 20B +, more than any auto company in the world.. Already did 14B. Dude. Stop reading headlines. The financials are what matters. Tesla wins on financials.

  2. No, it's only a news story if it happens to Tesla.... When my Mercedes had idiotic problems, it was never national headlines. But Tesla.... They change a price, national headline. Your local dealer gives you a different price every day? Normal...

  3. Before, it was Tesla is going to go bankrupt. Then, it was Tesla isn't profitable. Now it's, the completion is coming, and Elon musk is controversial... Tesla meanwhile has zero debt, 14B in profits competing against companies with 50-100B in debt. Lol... This was the most biased video possible. Tesla is the highest profit margin, highest operating profit margin, highest profit per vehicle, and top 3 profit per employee. But no.... Still not enough. Even though Tesla made 14B in profit vs GM and Ford 12B and 2b LOSS, no.... It's comical.... Elon musk is so controversial, people won't admit Tesla makes more money than GM and Ford.... Now the issue is Elon musk doesn't make enough cars and "doesn't have a 70%+ market share". Ya... Tesla was expected to hold the total marketshare of the industry? Why? Even if the product was bmw/Mercedes polished, they wouldn't ever have held that marketshare... It's a stupid expectation.

  4. ​ @rhyswilliams4893  14B in profits.... Highest profit margin in the industry. Highest operating profit. So... Clearly, you don't pay attention to things shareholders do. Don't pretend you read financials. You obviously don't. Autoline daily literally summarized this for you lazy people. It's obvious, you care more about hype than financials. I only care about the financials. ~50% yoy revenue, net income, cf growth.... Yes please..... Nvidia traded for over 80+x earnings. No one says anything. It's obvious you guys have zero idea what's going in markets if you consider Tesla, 50% EPS growth, to be overpriced, then amd, Nvidia, etc, all should be talked about first, before Tesla.... But no... You don't, because you don't know anything other than what msm puts in headlines.

  5. How Tesla squandered a lead by becoming the 6th most profitable auto company in the world, most profitable in America, and highest profit margin in the world. Highest profit per vehicle in the world.... Most valuable auto company. Lead squandered. The idiocy of people around Tesla is mind boggling... It's like basic financials are hard for you. No auto company makes money selling evs yet.... Tesla does.... Yet when Tesla didn't make money, company was in trouble. Ford loses money on every ev sold, project to lose more money, and they're your comparison point. You can't make this up..... You just can't.

  6. ​ @nickbruck1017  your judging based on a video that didn't talk financials. Go to autoline network daily and see their report of the auto industry, based on profits... The thing that actually matters. Then, you see why we are all very very happy shareholders. 14B in profit is nice. Nicer than GM and Ford. So telling us to unionize when we make more money than unionized Ford and GM... Lol... You're so bad at business go away. Tesla makes more profit per employee than both companies. I'm not interested in unions.

  7. It's just late... Like everything he does. It's coming.... If you're smart, you'd ignore everything he says... Steve Jobs lied all the time too.... Lol... Just, none of you follow business enough to realize, what he does isn't that abnormal. It's just the media only gives you so much info. Just read the financials. You're not allowed to lie there. You can't lie to investors. Since you people are too lazy to read financials, you deserve to be lied to. Cyber truck is a year away still, but it's clearly shown in financials.... Yes smart to lie. By doing so he gets an insane amount of coverage and Lowers his advertising expense. That advertising expense alone is about 40% of the reason Tesla makes more money than GM and Ford.

  8. ​ @hightechjoe1  it's highly amusing and proves, this whole green thing environmentalists push was always virtue signaling. So, rather than "save the planet", they're worried about a person having different opinions than them. They said how important it was to go green, and then, Tesla and Elon expose it's actually not an emergency. The climate emergency can now wait, because Elon has "bad opinions". Lol.

  9. ​ @Iceman-kr6df  profits speak for itself. 10k per car. Profit margin is 15%. Operating profit, 17%. #1 in the world for autos, excluding small players like ferrari. 14B in profit. The most in America. Lol... Keep worrying about bs. We see the goal line moved for Tesla every time. This year, the company will top 20B in profits... And we still will have trolls crying. Lol. I care about the money, and Tesla delivered. I bought in at a 20B market cap, the company now makes 14B a year.... 500B+ market cap. We make money..... That's what matters.

  10. They turned around and beat Tesla? Lol, you're misled by a very biased video. Ford just released it's financials of it's ev division. Lost 2B, projected to lose way more(it's own projections) and not be profitable til 2026. GM in similar situation. Tesla made 14B last year. GM 12, Ford -2. Tesla is already selling 30% more cars than last year for this quarter, so that 14B profit lead is only going to extend. You're hearing people make hit pieces in Elon musk because of his opinions. If you can ignore that somehow and only look at cold hard financials... Tesla is far ahead. Autoline network did a summary video today on this. Tesla had highest profit and operating margins. The company is idiotically efficient at generating money. Yes, Tesla has an old design, makes insane promises it doesn't keep. Etc. Whatever. The sell 30%+ more cars each year and make insane profit margins doing so. That's what matters. Also, Ford and GM have both also missed TONS of deadlines... They never get press coverage.... Lol. Mary Bara said GM didn't power price vehicles when Tesla did price cuts. Data showed GM lowered their vehicle prices the most. You just don't follow this lol. Ford and GM are terribly run companies, with profit margins normally around 5-6%. Only raised up now due to pandemic car pricing, although still not Tesla 15%. You can come pretend Ford and GM are doing well. Go buy their stocks then. I'm sure it will work well for you.

  11. 17:50 the other evs are here... In low numbers... Keep worrying about Tesla profitability.... 10k in profit per car, industry leading... We are fine.... Because we run companies based on math. Not our feelings. Elon musk pisses off a different group, who become deranged. This time, it's liberals. Now, liberals pretend Tesla isn't the most profitable auto company in the world. When Tesla does 20B in profits this year, there will be a new cope. Doesn't matter what hurdles Tesla beats. The doubters won't let it go.

  12. Yup. Good thing failure to deliver a truck doesn't mean Tesla isn't insanely profitable. It means they made stupid public statements.... Boo hoo. People like you can gloat about that. I'll gloat about the 14B in profits, eclipsing Ford and GM. So ya... Make fun of old designs and broken promises. That's nothing on profits. I can name tons of companies who did similar. Intel refreshed the same CPU architecture for 8 years and was late on every single release for example. You know about Tesla because the media talks about it. They don't talk about every single company doing the same thing (to less of a degree.). They don't mention Tesla profits either. Because they don't want to look stupid. Tesla wins when we talk financials... The thing I care about as a shareholder. I'm very happy Ford refreshes your designs for you and has "better quality". I hope the 2 billion dollar loss is worth it..... I'll take 14B in profits. Every year we hear about Tesla's tired designs. And every year, we set new sales records...... Lol.....

  13. How many vehicles has rivian made? Why aren't you knocking rivian for not living up to their delivery estimates? Missing time lines. Adjusting prices. All things Tesla did.... Oh ya... Because only Tesla gets public scrutiny. No one even notices when the same things happen at other companies. Intel misses a deadline? No headlines. Steve Jobs is a complete dick? Barely mentioned until he dies. Just hilarious how narrative drives things. When you have perspective and know what everyone else in the business community is doing, you're more sane.
