TechTrek Invest : Tesla cutting prices in China is to enable their vehicles to qualify for the EV incentives. This means Tesla and the buyer will make more money than the price they cut their vehicles for. Tesla's Demand is insane and they will continue to be supply restrained.
SpyderCall TechTrek Invest : good insight. but we might not see this translate into bullish price action until their earnings release can show this. Sometimes the market will move in the seemingly improper direction off of news. we just gotta follow the trends. Tesla is a great company and equity stock. but sometimes the momentum to the downside just cant be fought. I think you are completely right about this price cut being bullish though.
If tesla made a car in america that was cheap enough for the mass public to purchase then it would be the best seller by far for sure. It would be the most demanded car in the world easily. he cant do this because the EV charging infrastructure is not set up to handle that many EVs on the road. on a side note china is EV cahrging infrastructure is outpacing ours. In US there are only charging stations in major cities in affluent areas or major retail locations. and if you want to travel long distances then the only charging stations to use would be on national highways between the big major cities. ....
