Why $TSLA could go bankrupt in 8 charts.

Chart-1: Net Cash/Equity by Major Carmaker.
Note that $GM & $FCAU went BK in & #39;08 b/c of being net debt as they entered the crisis.

Chart-2: $TSLA also is the most inefficient carmaker in North America, on an output/worker basis.

Chart-3: $TSLA also generates the least revenues per worker in the world while having a non-unionized workforce.

Chart-4: $TSLA will eventually have the worst brand value in the world b/c customers can& #39;t get their crappy Teslas fixed.

Tesla& #39;s global fleet (units) per Service Center is at an unsustainable high. And $TSLA doesn& #39;t have the money to build new Service Centers.

Chart-5: "Exponential Growth?" Ha! Look at the Model S vs Porsche& #39;s Panamera, which was getting killed by the Model S till Porsche conducted an expensive full-model change (>$700m). $TSLA can& #39;t afford that.

By 2021, all of $TSLA& #39;s line-up (ex Model Y) will be >3yrs old.

Chart-6: And by 2022, this is the kind of "EV rainshower" $TSLA is facing, without any money to develop the CyberTruck or whatever else @elonmusk has contrived for his new model pipeline.
$TSLAQ

Char-7: Not having any new models will only lead to a further decline in $TSLA& #39;s average unit prices, despite higher volumes (if possible in 2021). This is proof that $TSLA needs new models (which it can& #39;t afford) to re-envigorate its line-up.
$TSLAQ

Chart-8: And finally, all that exponential growth in unit sales was paid for by what?

$TSLA& #39;s quarterly vehicle sales may be reaching record highs, but so is its accumulated losses.
