That seeking alpha article doesn't mention Tesla's 4680 battery cell, which reduce battery cost massively for Tesla. Also, omits that Tesla is dominating in China despite massive ev competition. Once Berlin is up in Spring '21 the same will be true in Europe. Also, the article claimed GM is a leader in autonomy with Cruise even though cruise uses geofencing. Article could have questioned the stock price, that's fair, but the points raised were weak.
Elon's email just highlights that he and the company understands they must execute well and continue to come up with innovative ideas and tech (like their new battery technology).
There’s nothing to suggest Tesla will be dominating China, a country that overwhelmingly favors local and European brands rolling out EVs en masse and Tesla’s European market share is dropping like a rock. Points raised are the reality. Tesla’s valuation derives from unproven speculation.
Tesla’s Market Share Is Sliding In China And Has Cratered In Europe
Elon’s e-mail highlights how fragile the valuation is. Tesla is eeking out a profit without any major competition. Profit margins will collapse as more and more competition enters the marketplace.

. Atm they can only get cars to Europe in the 2nd month of the quarter because they have to ship them there. They will be a dominate player in Europe. Thinking otherwise is foolish. China has literally shown us what will happen. Also, VW literally just realized a plan, Mission T, to finally take EVs seriously. Will take them to at least 2024 to catch up to Tesla. But Tesla isn't stopping as we said Tesla's cost are coming down due to battery tech and other innovations. The competition may come but they are far too late to the party. Where are they going to get enough batteries to produce on Tesla's scale?
. Competition can't get close to that price point with a comparable product
