The market is a strange place these days. I was joking about Dollar Tree recently. For the past 6 months it's out performed TSLA... Trends are changing.Assuming TSLA continues to grow and achieve its goals the amount of CF they generate will be unfathomable. Their capital allocation at that time will likely include a dividend alongside a share repo plan.
All those "foreigner's" who are parking their money in the US Stock markets should just fly to Vegas and gamble it away. There would be more fun there... JMHOThe reaction to the game stop deal, and further digging, educated me on just how rigged the system is.
Is it better than telling the wife you’re going to go “invest for the future” at the casino, yeah its different, is it all that different, no so much.

It's a large market with no one winner. If Tesla maintains 20% of the EV market in 2030 and continues to improve upon its margins slightly you are over $35 EPS/share (+5x from 2021). 50% CAGR over the next 4-5 years. Also, I am not really concerned about the EV market. It's the vertical integration for me.
Here's an interesting article that has some "read worthy" information on TSLA that you might not be aware of, and that touches on many of the reasons I'm skeptical about their future.
Scroll down midway to where they start on TSLA.

Here's the plan. If it were not for disasters Louisiana would go broke. Hurricanes and Federal money go hand in hand. A man like Wes Edens has lots of "reinsured policies" on his operations. If a hurricane blew this into downtown Lafayette, he would make a profit. Welcome to Louisiana and the oil / gas patch.Good for Louisiana. I wonder how this will handle the Hurricanes. Grand Isle gets slammed!

Tesla unable to restart Shanghai production on Monday
Tesla has notified workers and suppliers that production at its Shanghai factory will not resume on Monday as it had hoped, according to an internal notice shared with Reuters.www.reuters.com
Adoption will most likely trend to urban vs. rural in the short/long term. In bum fk nowhere gun range I compete at, there is always a Tesla.Be interesting to see "where" the surge of Tesla sales are located. Assume urban America. I seldom (never?) see any Teslas outside Atlanta or on the interstates with out of state tags (typically Florida). Definitely not any in rural GA maybe because of minimal EV charging infrastructure?
It's all about the battery, the battery, the battery“
Volkswagen, the pioneer of the “people’s car” that epitomised the auto industry’s obsession with expansion, will axe dozens of combustion engine models by the end of the decade and sell fewer cars overall to concentrate on producing more profitable, premium vehicles.
“The key target is not growth,” said Arno Antlitz, chief financial officer, in a reversal of the stance taken by former VW executives.
“We are [more focused] on quality and on margins, rather than on volume and market share.” VW, he said, would reduce its line-up of petrol and diesel cars — which consists of at least 100 models across several brands — by 60 per cent in Europe over the next eight years.
VW’s new strategy is a sign of profound changes in the wider auto sector, which for decades has attempted to increase profits by selling more cars each year, even if doing so required heavy discounting.
Even VW’s €52bn push into electric vehicles— the largest investment package of its kind — would not add unnecessary volume, Antlitz added. “We are not adding capacity: we rework factory by factory,” he said, referring to plants in Zwickau and Emden where combustion engine production lines have been converted to construct electric cars, while workers have been retrained.
But he also admitted calculations that electric vehicles would soon be as profitable for VW as combustion engine models had been thrown into doubt by the soaring cost of raw materials for batteries.

Yeah, it is pretty humorous seeing friends/coworkers/etc. finance cars more than their salary.The idea of the car was the struggle to make it affordable to the most people.
Transportation for all.
Now it is the struggle to make transportation only available to those with the most money, screw the little people.

I hate seeing manufacturing companies with outdated capital and little to no CAPEX repurchase shares.H B Fuller... It all began in 1887 when the company introduced Fuller’s Premium Liquid Fish Glue
H.B. Fuller to implement 11% surcharge to cover supply costs
H.B. Fuller set $300 mln stock repurchase program
H.B. Fuller boosts dividend by 13%
The downward cycle of big, old companies has become concerning to investors. Raise prices, buy back stocks and send some crumbs to the stock holders. Reminds me of having a "Fire Sale"... The whole bunch have no new products, are building no new American manufacturing plants, have an aging upper management group that is doing nothing more than building a pension. Any new workers being hired have no skills, no work ethic and no vision for the future of a real career. They are not bolstering up to weather the storm. They are clearing a path to the life boats because they know the companies are sinking. Link is to view the price per share. As with so many companies, appears they hit the ice berg on 1/1/2022.

The FED's hate it too. That is why there have been so many mandates with the bail out money stipulations that it was not to be used to buy back shares. But, it has been used for that exact thing.... Nothing more than a junkie doing anything possible for one more fix.I hate seeing manufacturing companies with outdated capital and little to no CAPEX repurchase shares.
Share buybacks have their purpose. I was recently on a call to discuss SEC Share Repurchase and 10b5-1 proposals. Basically... they want to limit and/or tax share repurchases.The FED's hate it too.

I guess....... ?Li-cycle is interesting.
There are an awful lot of stocks that are down 50%-70%.I guess....... ?

LiCycle started at outperform with $14 stock price target at Wedbush
Seven months later - Currently at $7.37
What am I missing ?
You make valid points... In a manufacturing country this company would do well. America is a Service Industry society.... Perhaps robotics integrated into the process could lessen the need for manpower. I think we are a long way from anyone desiring a job in a "Dirty Jobs" environment.. Right now the environmentalist have shut down every old industry in America, starting with the timber industry.. The Government itself will put up road block after road blocks. Seen it in many operations. When the neighbors force them to install Air Quality Monitors around the plants and start shutting them down the operations will move to third world countries...There are an awful lot of stocks that are down 50%-70%.
Did you look into what they actually do?
Do you see the demand for this over the upcoming years?

As a group, the "Recycler's" have been trending up for a few months. Once the scrap metal transportation gets back up to pre-pandemic levels, that industry will move back off shore.
What will the cost of a recycled lithium battery be compared to an OEM lithium battery?
And then there is the US competition:
