Topic: Tesla can be worth more than Apple and Saudi Aramco combined - Elon Musk states - page 2. (Read 323 times)

Tesla don’t even sell the tenth of what the biggest car manufacturer is selling and yet Tesla is 10 times bigger than the biggest car manufacturer. Everybody but the investors can see the Tesla bubble. It is price to earnings ratio is through the roof and the valuation of this stock makes no sense. Stocks like tsla are known to create lots of bag holders and we will see if tsla is going to be an exception.

Nothing new for a major shareholder to boast their company's image in exchange for some possible buys from investors or traders. Elon can literally claim anything on Tesla stock, but the thing is how long would these claims be manifested and how will it be possible to achieve it? Nowadays, no one questions the 'how' on huge claims, especially if it's about money that a lot of individuals can possibly earn. They just go with the bullshit and put their money on it hoping that they also make it big.

Saudi Aramco is already a difficult company to chase in terms of valuation given how important its products are. What more with Apple and its line of overpriced tech products that a lot of people still prefers to buy?

I know there are always people who can afford expensive things, but the base Model T costs about $47 000, which is about $10 000 more than in 2019. Someone will say that other cars have also become more expensive, which is true, but for the price of 1 basic T model, you can buy at least two solid cars, or even three smaller ones.

I would not take such statements as something to be taken seriously, especially if we know that this man has already been punished by the SEC for manipulating the price of his shares in the past.

Tesla's market capitalization is at $657.72 billion, and Apple + Saudi Aramco is $4.451 trillion (I've used the data from here). So Tesla is currently worth just shy of 15% of the top-2 combined. Quite an ambitious statement from Musk, then, which isn't surprising but isn't particularly realistic either.
Musk did some good, but also some bad with his talks and actions for the crypto market. I hope more major companies will join in, so that we can be hopeful about someone other than this guy.

I don't expect more of the legendary growth of Tesla, as the electric car industry has become the focus of the attention of giant companies, the cheap industry in China has disappeared, and there may be a semiconductor problem in Taiwan. All these factors will make us believe that the next will be worse.

The other side is the problem of batteries, which I expect the Chinese giant BYD to excel in, and therefore whoever controls this sector with semiconductors will determine the future of the industry.

On the other hand, there is no real competition for Apple and Saudi Aramco.

I would take anything from Elon Musk with a very cynical view if I was you. He has no qualms and his integrity is questionable. He just says things that people like to hear and such, appear to the mass, you know.
But once it comes to profit and money, those nice and fancy things about his bravado are thrown out of the window right away.

For example, you know what Elon Musk has said about wanting to keep Twitter as a 'freedom of speed' platform. Then he's shilling for Russia regard about their invasion, about what kind of peace deal Ukraine should take, giving away their land to buy a 'temporary peace'. Cause he doesn't care about what happen after that, just his money at the front, at it was right now from Starlink giving away for Ukraine's troop to use which cost him money.
Or when he's shilling for the CCP regard about Taiwan's status. That Taiwan should accept the 'one country, two systems' ploy from the CCP when the fucking thing has been played out and shown people the true color of the CCP. It was in Hongkong, their freedom was taken away, massive protests against CCP, and eventually, capitulation under CCP's 'one country, two systems'. All for what? For his company, Telsa to receive tax exemptions on their cars in China.

If you still believe in what Elon Musk was saying, you're a fool.

Of the total amount they had, they first sold 10%, and then another 75%, which leaves them with only 15%, which roughly leaves them with around 6000 BTC. It would be good if they sell that too and end the story about how Mr. Mars wishes good for anyone, except for himself and his company.

We are talking about trillions here, and at the same time a man at one point wants to charge Ukraine for using his internet for the key defense of the country, and it is a measly amount of $80 million. However, it seems that the hypocrite will finally profit from the war, because the EU is discussing paying for the use of the Internet.

Elon Must is a master in market manipulations. He understands that he has the power to manipulate the financial or economic decisions of so many people. His comments now can make people start to buying Telsa shares which might lead to an increase in price. It is clear that Telsa is a visionary firm that has become a key player in the future of the automobile industry but making this statement now might have other hidden reasons.

Apple would be very difficult to unseat as the most valuable brand because of its ceaseless expansion and diversification into different technological sectors. It is also a higher innovative company like Telsa. Its products a highly valued and known even in most developing countries. 

Saudi Arabia is the most influential country in OPEC (Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries). Over the years this organization has spearheaded the quest to make crude expensive through supply cuts and quota systems. Sanctions against Iran and Russia have also been beneficial to these oil-producing states. Aramco is currently making a whole lot of profit. The firm published that its net income increased by 90 percent in the first quarter.

Elon Musk did not give a timeline for his prediction, but I doubt if it would come to pass in the next five years.   

Has anyone read Elon Musk's leaked private message conversations relating to the twitter deal?

It seems to me that even founders of twitter like Jack Dorsey look up to Elon Musk as if he were the techno king. Elon's fanbase seems to include many other successful tech CEOs who defer to him. All of the ideas Elon posted for the future of twitter, seem to be ideas he got from another tech CEO. Jack Dorsey has an interesting concept for a future social media platform which Elon could end up funding. Its a really good design concept. Although I think there are several competing concepts trying to achieve near to the same thing.

Tesla has shown that it can be very flexible and think outside the box when it needs to. They're outworking their competitors and could be ahead in development of EVs by a span of years. Even toyota can't touch them although toyota supposedly had a 5 year technology advantage over other automakers in developing and building hybrids. Tesla could have a bright future is like saying water is wet at this point.

Elon Musk is into business, and he takes everything in connection to business and revenue out of it. In such a way there is no need of combining Aramco and Apple to stay down to Tesla. These are some form of manipulative terms, and if people start to react then the market could get boosted. This will help him on the acquiring of Twitter.

For now his manipulation has failed in the cryptomarket as well in the traditional market. It is time for him to find new way to make some disturbance in the market. Surely he'll have alternate plans, because he's a genius billionaire among all.

i do agree, what do we expect from him to say about the companies that he is partly owner? definitely, he will most likely exaggerate things to possibly benefit the image of his companies. but aside from marketing his company, i believe, he has also other things in mind how to uplift the worthiness of Tesla in the coming years. i don't think he is saying this with empty basis. but who knows his ulterior motives, right?

Elon, the largest shareholder, has every incentive to try to over exaggerate Tesla's future because he stands to gain the most from it (provided he hasn't sold off too much) - making this a rather moot news story. Not only that he is currently looking at a huge bill for buying Twitter, which he has no way to avoid due to Delaware's aggressive pro company legal stance. That means he needs to figure out ways to raise more money, which he might do by swapping shares or trying to pump up the value of his existing holdings. At least he is being less manipulative or outright fraudulent in making claims than in the past, as this is merely his personal prediction instead of claiming some secretive group of buyers want to take it over for a huge price.

After the release of its Q3 earnings results on Wednesday, it was disclosed that Tesla did not sell any of it's BTC as balance sheet still show $218m in digital assets.
 


In 2021, Tesla purchased $1.5bn worth of crypto but sold of %75 of it's shares in Q2.
Records show that in Q3, the company's revenue rose to $21.5bn. This upsurge has led Elon to declare that at the rate they are moving, the value of Tesla shares can be worth more than the values of Apple and Saudi Aramco combined.

 As of October 2022, according to market cap, Apple has a market value of $2.311trn, making them the world's most valuable company, while Saudi Aramco has a market cap of $2.092trn, coming close second most valuable company.

 Elon has a penchant for competition, as this is quite expected in business, but can he be able to overthrow Apple's position or will his interests move to something else in the future?
