reponse to the below feedback

Great post you have here. I like the way you include Tesla because I think while the numbers look good, there may be some impact due to the current political climate. I found a slightly different D/E ratio for Tesla, but the fact that it is less than 1 is a good thing for Tesla. Because a higher ratio suggests higher risk and the company is financing its growth with debt. However, when a company is in its growth phase, a high D/E ratio might be necessary for that growth. Generally, a good D/E ratio should be around 1 or 1.5. Tesla's D/E ratio suggests a lower risk of loan default, which is good for lenders. Low risk of bankruptcy and Tesla can more easily attract additional capital. But I think this is a ceteris paribus assumption, all things being equal. The year 2025 has so far not been particularly kind to tesla due to political influences.
