All companies have regular attrition. Top talents come and go. Cross pollination is very common in the tech industry. Tesla and SpaceX remain to be the #1 and #2 destinations for top school graduates.
Tesla has the lion's share of the EV sales. It only makes sense for their market share to come down. However, Tesla's sales volume will continue to grow while its
market share goes down. EV sales from all car manufacturers will be taking shares from internal combustion engine car sales.
Elon Musk is a missionary. You are not going to find an ordinary person who is a missionary running an extraordinary company. See history(Steve Jobs, Bill Gates, etc). Social media certainly amplifies a lot of things.
The stock has always been volatile, and Elon Musk has always been Elon Musk.
Just the sales from Model Y, 3, S, and X alone will make Tesla lots of money for years to come. You can discount the energy products, FSD, the semi, cybertruck, insurance, supercharging, service, etc. All those things will be gravy if/when they become a bigger part of the picture.
The Tesla today is much stronger than the Tesla 5 years ago. Let's imagine 5 years from now, do you think Tesla will be weaker or stronger?
Having said all that, we are in a bear market. Most stocks go down in a bear market.
Interest rates have gone up. People who will need a loan to buy a car may now think twice before buying a car. This will impact sales to some degree. This affects all car manufacturers.
If we get a recession/hard landing, sales will definitely be affected.
When all the chaos stop, will Tesla be able to continue to execute or will Tesla be in a worse shape? I'd like to think it's the former.
