They shut down production of S & X to make more capability for cars that they want to focus on and which sell way more, AND Cybercab.

Tesla grows in large steps. Next big step is Robotaxis, which is well on its way. After that, robots, for which they have the best real-world AI platform for.

You could say Tesla is a speculation stock as well when they had released the Roadster. Tesla shorters always lose.

Isn't that true more often than not no matter what company you try to short? It's a tough game to play.

This is categorically untrue. Look at a chart of their stock from 2020 forward. It has massive spikes up and down. Plenty of shorters made good money in those falls using put options.

Which Tesla models sell more than the S and X?

Most/all of them. Even cybertruck sold more in 2025 (20k) versus S+X (30k combined), and that's after cybertruck sales were more or less cut in half.
