If I’m a shareholder, I don’t want an overly inflated stock price. I want a high stock price due to solid fundamentals. Tesla was temporarily extremely overvalued, but has since lost 60% of its market cap. It’s likely still overvalued compared with peers. It’s a car company, not a b2b SaaS company.

Put another way, which company is more likely to exist in 10 years: Microsoft or Tesla?



Not sure why you are down-voted. If you are an investor, you want a fair price when you buy. Think of going to a store, when there is a sale and prices are below value of a product, it's smart to buy. Same goes with stocks.


If you are an investor, you want an unfairly low price when you buy, and an unfairly high price when you hold or sell.


Exactly
