MODERATORS
They went to the stock chart, picked the latest peak, and wrote the article of doom. It's down 20% a year ago, but up 20% for the last 6 months, and up 119% YTD.
Not that Tesla doesn't have its ills or seems to be stagnating, but picking points in a chart is a feeble argument.
That 119% is based on the lower peak you cherry picked, you just did exactly what you complained the article did.
YTD is a pretty common way to look at stocks and isn’t really cherry picking
