The 30-second take
Tesla's valuation is debated more than any other megacap. Bull case: FSD (Full Self-Driving) + Optimus humanoid robot + Energy Storage scale into a trillion-dollar platform. Bear case: automotive unit economics compressing, China competition (BYD) winning, Musk distraction. In interviews, stick to: deliveries trend (quarterly number), gross margin trajectory (ex-credits), and whether FSD will ever reach real Level 4/5. Don't volunteer a political view.
