Share of Combined Market Value

TSLA 96%GM 4%

Two ends of the car industry: Tesla sells only electric vehicles and also has software and energy-storage businesses, while General Motors earns its profit from combustion vehicles as it tries to grow its EV line. The gap between the values the market puts on them is far larger than the gap in unit sales.

Each series is converted to a percentage of its own starting point, so all of them begin at zero. What is compared is the return over the period, not price levels.
