Evidence and source

Tesla Stock Crash: How Far Can Tesla Stock Drop From Here? | $TSLA
Published on Mar 13, 2025@ 4:55Open on YouTube

Our summary of the thesis

Strongly Bearish

Structured interpretation of the video, not a verbatim quotation. Check the source for conditions, emphasis and context.

Tesla's operations are deteriorating with sales falling over 50% in certain countries, margins at industry average despite subsidies, and the company trading at unsustainable multiples compared to legacy automakers. The YouTuber believes Tesla could easily fall another 90% if operations continue to deteriorate.

Key arguments

  • Tesla's margins are now about industry average, not superior as claimed
  • Tesla is growing more slowly than GM and Ford, with auto business down 8% last quarter
  • Trading at 8.2x sales vs GM at 0.3x and Ford at 0.2x - could fall 90% and still be overvalued
  • High fixed costs from manufacturing plants make company vulnerable to losses if sales drop
  • Expected products like FSD and Optimus face significant competition and uncertain timelines

Hedges and caveats (from the video)

  • Analysis based on early 2025 sales data that may not be representative of full-year trends
  • Assumes continued operational deterioration and margin compression
  • Dependent on potential elimination of $7,500 EV tax credit by Trump Administration
  • Excludes potential positive catalysts or operational improvements
  • Valuation comparison assumes legacy automaker multiples remain constant
