Tesla's meteoric tear is unraveling this month as experts start to worry that the stock's performance could start to mimic bitcoin's extreme volatility after the firm disclosed a $1.5 billion investment in the world's largest cryptocurrency earlier this month.... [+]Shares of Tesla at one point plunged more than 10% Tuesday morning, pushing their losses since February 8–when the firm first disclosed its $1.5 billion bitcoin investment–to more than 25%.
That crippling blow to Tesla stock has erased about $215 billion in the firm's market capitalization, which stands at about $620 billion, since the investment, at which time the firm's market cap was near a high of $844 billion. The recent plunge comes as bitcoin prices tank about 7% after Tesla's billionaire chief, Elon Musk, said over the weekend that the cryptocurrency's prices looked"a little high," Oanda Senior Market Analyst Craig Erlam said Tuesday morning.
In a note to clients Tuesday, Wedbush Analyst Dan Ives said that"for both good and bad," Tesla shares are now"heavily tied" to bitcoin prices–a development that's driving a sell-off among cautious investors. Though he remains bullish on Tesla's stock, Ives also pins the recent losses to the firm halting sales of its lowest-priced Model Y and ongoing price cuts that have led to demand concerns among Wall Street analysts."The electric-vehicle space is in the early days of playing out," Ives said Tuesday, noting that Tesla dominates the market, which is set to grow to an estimated $5 trillion over the next decade.

Even after the dip, they have made more money from investing in $BTC than they did selling card in the entire year of 2020...meaning for once the company has actually reported turning profit for once. Crypto truth
