(1) Projection of what exactly is TSLA's market share for the next five years with the introduction of Chevy Bolt on the lower-end; and potential new competitors like GOOGL and self-driving/electric cars of traditional auto makers on the higher-end.
(2) Profit margin of TSLA cars without the green credits from gov't and tax breaks from any US gov't alternative energy research incentives; any risk from regulatory landscape due to the most recent US regime change.
(3) The trajectory/projection of household solar panel adoption pegged to the trajectory of traditional energy cost trends (e.g., natural gas and oil commodity price due to recently supply glut); the break-even number of new households growth for SCTY division or a number that Crude/Gas need to stay above.
(4) Cash flow projection for TSLA/SCTY as far as I understand it, combined entity relies heavily on fundraising via gov't grant, issuing new bonds and occasional issuing of new equity shares. What percentage of TSLA net revenue goes to meeting bond payments, and what percentage of net income comes from financial engineering vs. sales of cars?
These questions I think could shed critical (both positive and negative) light to otherwise generally very positive but shallow coverage of TSLA on HN? Thanks in advance for any inputs by more informed peeps!
