I cannot think of a reasonable explanation of Tesla stock shooting up that high.

I’m seeing some videos pop up about Enron level accounting fraud and that makes as much sense as anything.

It could be because Elon/Tesla has now broken all of its promises from when it started:

“Tesla’s gross margins for service and selling replacement parts are surging, and Tesla is proudly saying it in its financial results.”
