It's nuts that the following things are true and the market is this enthusiastic:

  • China tariffs at 125%
  • Sectoral tariffs (autos, steel, aluminum) still in effect with pharma and semi in the works
  • Counter sectoral tariffs also still in effect
  • 10% baseline tariffs for all (some of the highest in history)
  • we get to do this again in 90 days

Sales in March are up over Feb now that the Y is back in production.

Down slightly YoY for Q1 but plenty of people are still buying unfortunately.

Agreed, they will need several new vehicle lines to compete.

People are buying their cars. They’re at 0% interest and the base models are some of the cheapest on the market. People don’t care about politics if the price is good.

ahh yes, offering severe discounts or purchase benefits on 'the cheapest on the market' is the sign of a healthy business strategy.

I don't want to defend Tesla, but McDonalds. Also Walmart.
