Tesla's Declining Sales and Stock Volatility

Tesla is experiencing significant challenges, with sales plummeting 70% in Canada and substantial declines in other markets like China and Europe. The company's stock price has halved since its peak, reflecting a high level of volatility unique to Tesla. Recent investigations revealed concerns regarding unaccounted funds amounting to $1.4 billion and accounting practices that heavily relied on unrealized Bitcoin gains. This raises questions about the fundamental strength of Tesla as a company and whether its market valuation is justified, especially given that its profits were reportedly less than those of several Canadian brands.
