In plain English

What Tesla (TSLA) actually does

Tesla designs, builds and sells electric vehicles, plus battery storage systems and solar products. It sells directly to customers rather than through dealerships, and it also earns money from software (like its driver-assistance packages), charging, and selling regulatory credits to other carmakers. Investors argue constantly about whether Tesla should be valued as a car company or as a technology company — that disagreement is a big reason the share price swings so much.

Where the money comes from

Vehicle sales: The large majority of revenue. Volumes for the Model 3 and Model Y dominate the quarterly numbers.
Energy generation and storage: Grid-scale batteries and home storage — smaller than cars, but the fastest-growing line in recent years.
Services, software and credits: Supercharging, service centres, insurance, driver-assistance software and regulatory credits sold to other automakers.

Price drivers

What moves TSLA stock

1
Quarterly delivery numbers
Tesla publishes production and delivery counts a few days after each quarter ends. A miss versus expectations often moves the stock several percent in a single session.
2
Price cuts and gross margin
Tesla frequently changes sticker prices to defend volume. Lower prices lift deliveries but squeeze margin, and the market usually reacts to the margin line, not the headline unit count.
3
Autonomy and robotaxi expectations
A large slice of Tesla's valuation rests on self-driving software that is not fully delivered yet. Regulatory news and demo events move sentiment quickly.
4
Competition and EV demand
Chinese and legacy-automaker EV launches, plus changes to EV subsidies and interest rates (which set monthly payments), all feed into demand.
5
Elon Musk headlines
Unusually for a company this size, founder news — share sales, other ventures, public statements — regularly shows up in the day's price action.

Risks worth knowing

High valuation multiples mean the stock can fall hard even when the business grows.
Auto manufacturing is capital-intensive and cyclical; a consumer slowdown hits it directly.
Several long-promised products (full autonomy, cheaper models, humanoid robots) may arrive late or not at all.
Historically one of the most volatile large-cap US stocks — daily moves of 5%+ are routine.

How to read TSLA's numbers

Tesla's P/E ratio usually looks expensive next to other carmakers because investors are paying for expected future growth, not today's profits. Compare its P/E to its own history and to growth peers rather than to Ford or GM, and watch gross margin trends alongside delivery counts.
