Musk said in a conference call in April that considering inflation and other factors, as well as the increase in the cost of the supply system, it is expected that the cost of Tesla at the supply end will increase by 20%-30% in 20 13 years. In order to alleviate the cost pressure, Tesla raised the price six times last year. In terms of profit margin, the profit margin in the first quarter was 65,438+07.5%, which was significantly higher than the 65,438+03.3% in the second and third quarters.
Since the Federal Reserve announced the infinite quantitative easing policy in March 2020, Tesla has started a vigorous rising cycle. In a year and a half, the stock price rose more than 13 times, and Musk successfully became the richest man in the world.
However, the good times did not last long. With the sharp interest rate increase by the Federal Reserve in 2022 and the shrinking of watches, the disillusionment of Tesla myth became an inevitable destination, and many American technology companies began to lay off employees. This once again illustrates a truth: the Fed's printing machine can't smooth the economic cycle, on the contrary, it is the maker of the economic cycle.
Musk's appetite is really too big. He opened two super factories in a short time and won Twitter at a high price, and his value plummeted. In the future, Musk's capital flow will face more severe challenges.
