Tesla appeals to early adopters and is affected by rapidly changing technology.
Does anyone know what a Tesla will be worth in 5 years and how that figures in operating cost? I am predicting rapid depreciation..
Coda is another electric car company that is near bankrupt. No one is buying tham.

No one is denying that Tesla, if it weren't for their Government subsidizing would have been bankrupt years ago.

Also, I don't really think Elon Musk needs to manipulate stocks to make money - considering his newest project SpaceX is the sole supplies shuttle for the international space station and all that.
