Price discovery is a primary function of a financial market. TSLA is widely held and highly valued. These are facts. The burden is on you to refute this and general platitudes and whataboutism doesn't cut it.

I'd go so far to bet that 85-95% of long term TSLA investors have made money, not lost it. Guess who's leading TSLA?

Is your premise here that retail investors are sharper than professionals? The two groups, on average, tend to have very different opinions of Tesla stock.

Is your premise institutional investors are not bullish on TSLA? Short interest is under 4%, and the company is one of the largest by market cap in the world.

Parent was suggesting no one should trust Musk, due to a few Twitter lapses.

My premise is that given the breadth, and depth of people investing in Musk's companies, there may be more to the story.

Look, if 85% retail investors loosing money does not convince you that they can't judge financial performance, then I probably can't convince you that Earth is round.

Replace TSLA with in your post Bitcoin and you sound like a 'true believer'.

I am perfectly happy with people believing/cheering on TSLA/Crypto, just let's clearly tell that apart from an independent, unbiased assessment.
