Error about revenue in the story as originally published.
The story stated:
"Tesla moved a record number of vehicles the previous quarter but had such a large capital expenditure program and offered so many incentives, down to a 0% APR program, that its revenue and earnings took a giant hit."
Actually, revenue was $28+ billion, a leap of 26% above the previous year. And revenue for the most recent 4 quarters exceeded $100 billion for the first time in Tesla's history. A major milestone.
See the Tesla website for Q2 results.
Fixed, thank you, KenMac.
