Their margins are only 14.6% on operating costs. Add in SG&A and debt service and it's well under 10%
Another 25% loss in revenues wipes out net income.

Price target from $240 down to $40 per share. Loon Skum has finally screwed himself. I may eventually get my wish to have him GONE from supposedly running Tesla, as if he ever truly did.

beginning to discuss this. I could have sworn Carol Masser said TSLA stock rallied today--6%? Usually I understand why stocks fall or rally, but not TSLA on a day when it was anticipated to release disappointing earnings.
