says not Musk does
Roger that vooke. Innovation means doing more and better for less.
SpaceX - 60% marketshare of commercial space launch. This sector was previously dead as dodo and dominated by ULA, Europe (France) & Russia. Cost per launch drop from US$200M to 60M. How is that hot air? Solid tech, solid action, solid cost savings. SpaceX is a
private company valued at $20B. No Wall Street speculation unlike Tesla. And this
startup is 15 years old unlike 100 years old Lockheed Martin & Boeing
http://www.popularmechanics.com/space/rockets/a27290/one-chart-spacex-dominate-rocket-launches/The relatively inexpensive cost of a Falcon 9 launch, staring at around $62 million, has also lead the Department of Defense to move away from their old go-to, United Launch Alliance, a joint venture between Boeing and Lockheed Martin.
Tesla - the market is not crazy to value them at $57B... higher than Ford, GM & Daimler and all the other luxury auto brands. None of those companies have any
advance orders unlike Tesla. Tesla has not sold few units for lack of customers but rather lack of production capacity... which is what the gigafactories are about... and why batteries are outsourced to Panasonic. While GM and others face shrinking demand. You may be aware most govts - US, EU, Far East, Aussie - have mandated EV in coming decade. This escalating shift to clean energy is what fuels the big evaluation of Tesla Inc - Motors & Energy - not hot air. They will continue to dominate EV market - which will supplant gasoline auto - and push those dinosaurs you're praising out of business. That's why a 15 year old startup with 1% of market is 3rd most valuable - after Toyota & Nissan - 100 year old companies. The Japs are a tough nut to crack.
Musk - have you looked at his profile? Dozens of innovation awards says something. Unlike Jobs & Gates who had a handful in their days. Musk at 35years already was
Global Innovator of the Year for a few years mfululizo... this is the award that got Dr James Mwangi of Equity kudos all round Africa including from Raila
Do you think the issuers of these awards don't know anything? Are they just as sold to the hype as Wall Street?
