I think our relationship with tech as an idea is in itself, not just a rational thing. Some of it is because companies have come out of the tech sector that just blow everything we've seen out of the water from software and things like that. We see that these people have this potential that for us is no more than what they can do on their own.
Paris Marx is joined by Edward Niedermeyer to discuss the rollercoaster ride of Tesla’s share price, the escalating regulatory and legal scrutiny the company faces, and the challenges it faces in the electric car market.
