What do investors hope from these companies? Their market caps are sky high, putting PE ratio in astronomical numbers. Clearly they cant be seeing Tesla as a car company. Car companies don’t earn that much and operate in super competitive market.

I’m guessing they’re expecting full self-driving breakthrough from Tesla? And with SpaceX for Grok to overtake Claude and GPT?

Aren’t these overly optimistic scenarios? What am I missing?
