Good luck to them I say, its a good move buying shares in them I would think.

$226M in the initial IPO is small change but the growth potential could very well turn that into billions. I'm so jonesing to get back into the market and explore new ventures. Tesla has virtually been the only full manufacturer in this market and imho they will be taken over by one of the big three. Devalued I know compared to the initial investment but a 3/1 or 4/1 stock split would not be so bad.
