Tesla Faces 402 P/E Ratio, $25B Robotics Spend and $3.4T Merger Speculation
TSLA•Tesla has delivered 22,250% returns over 15 years but now faces slowing growth, rising inventory and intense competition while Musk pivots with $25 billion in autonomous driving and robots against a 402 P/E. Speculation of a SpaceX-Tesla merger forming a $3.4 trillion entity with negative pro-forma profits highlights dilution and cash-flow risks.
