Interesting tip, I like it when someone comes up with a company completely out of places where you probably don't normally look for stocks. 😊 I don't know the company of course. Where do you get these companies and then where do you trade them if applicable? 😊

If one looks at the chart from a long-term perspective, one finds that the company has never sold off properly except in 2000 and is still rising. That's great for stock owners, but for new investors given the valuation, I think it's high. But on the stock, that doesn't mean the growth is over. The company can continue to strengthen. I don't own it and I'm not thinking about buying it at this time.

Let's see how it goes. Personally, I don't own shares of $PLTR, but I am keeping an eye on the share price.

He says that, but what is the general market outlook and more importantly the one for the sector? Not a buy yet for me, not at least until the rest of the metrics look to be in place.

The bigotry at Tesla is insane, normal arguments are not enough here. But as an investor you might know that there were many such to the moon and where are they today? Nowhere... Nothing grows indefinitely, I deliberately did some digging and looked at such then top,top,top companies of the past and whether they still exist. Here's a few examples (I'm not comparing technologies, it's just an example that every company no matter how revolutionary will hit a wall at some point).

-Pan American World Airways (Pan Am) - in the 1930's the dominant airline, the first to fly across oceans and a symbol of luxury and technological advancement. But it folded in 1991 due to financial problems and competition from other airlines.

-East India Company - a British company founded in the 1600s that effectively ruled India and dominated world trade. However, it lost its monopoly in the mid-19th century and was liquidated in 1874.

-Sears Roebuck - American retail chain that revolutionized shopping with its catalogs in the late 19th century. In the mid-20th century it was the largest retailer in the world, but in recent decades it has fallen into decline and its fame has waned.

-Smith Corona - the dominant manufacturer of typewriters, invented in 1867 by Christopher Latham Sholes. But with the emergence of personal computers in the 1970s, demand for typewriters declined and Smith Corona lost its leading position. In 1995, it discontinued typewriter production.

I've made the arguments enough in the past, hence these examples, it's only a matter of time before the hype dies down and people realize that Tesla is just an overvalued company that will be replaced sooner or later anyway. But for EVs and Tesla that bump may come much sooner, maybe with the advent of hydrogen and alternative fuel cars.

Great company, but the fact is that the main market is Europe. In the US, they barely know it, that's where everyone goes for Apple Music. The stock is not doing very well. You could say it's been going sideways since going public a couple of years ago...

The growth in recent months is really enormous. On the other hand, the stock is catching up with the earlier declines and is slowly regaining the limelight. Unless they sink all the money in Reality Labs and can profit from it gradually, this will be a good stock. But it's pretty expensive now.
