In Europe, consumer demand is weak, and Chinese EV companies like BYD and Xpeng are expanding their presence, which “leaves the U.S. as Tesla’s pivot point for its core car business,” Niedermeyer said.

Still, Musk’s alliance with Trump seems to have persuaded Wall Street to ignore these developments; Tesla stock jumped 60 percent in the two months following Trump’s election. Consider: If Tesla’s price-to-earnings ratio fell from 181 to 50—a figure still at least eight times as high as Toyota’s or Ford’s—its stock price would tumble 70 percent.
