Valuation Lens
Use separate building blocks for core vehicle manufacturing, energy storage, services and charging, software, and probability-weighted autonomy or robotics. This avoids paying twice for the same growth assumption and clarifies which expectations are required to justify market value.
Update Triggers
Refresh after a new annual filing, material quarterly filing, major acquisition or divestiture, material product or platform transition, major regulatory action, or another event that changes a core thesis assumption. A price move by itself is not a content-update trigger unless the page publishes valuation data tied to that price.
