Tesla's earnings were also boosted by its sales of zero-emission-vehicle credits to other automakers, which generated $68 million in revenue for the quarter. The credit system was set up by the California state government to push automakers to produce environmentally friendly vehicles. Manufacturers of gasoline-powered vehicles can purchase the credits accrued by green-car producers like Tesla. So another company bilking taxpayers - that's not a real or "sustainable" profit.

Ted, I test-drove a Tesla. Very nice car, excellent power and smooth ride. Feels like a Lexus. Will only cost 1.5-2x as much, but let's face it, everyone (who can afford it) and their brother has a Lexus, so why not be different and also go oil-free in the process? Tenchusatsu

What a difference a few months makes - blogs.wsj.com Tesla Troubles Mount: Shares Tumble to Four-Month Low Tesla Motors Inc. TSLA -10.27% isn’t an easy rider anymore. Shares slumped Monday and showed little sign of stemming the downside momentum that has picked up steam over the past six weeks. From car fires to a sour outlook to valuation concerns, the stock has lost more than 35% of its value since hitting a record high of $194.50 on Sept. 30. Tesla shares on Monday fell more than 9% to $123.11, a four-month low. The stock is still up 265% this year despite the recent drop, although it had risen as much as 478%. Tesla’s 200-day moving average currently sits at $107.33, according to FactSet. The rate things are going, it might not be long before that line gets taken out.
