Big takeaway here is they are very profitable producing at current rates. As they bring out new models they will continue to grow at 30-50% per year.
You don't know that. They had one big, profitable, immaculate quarter in Q3 by pulling all demand forward and using every accounting trick in the book to show profit. There is no guarantee there will be another quarter like that. In fact, if Tesla's earnings history shows anything, it's that losses will be even bigger than before.
Going forward, a) Weakened Global Economy b) Everyone who is passionate about owning Tesla has bought one.
Sustainable demand and profit will be clearer in 2019 Q2 and forward.
I can make a public bet that it wouldn't be greater than $150 Million per quarter
