Comment on What is happening with Tesla (TSLA) stock currently? 📈
brucethemoose@lemmy.world 1 week ago10% is still a wild fluctuation for a company with the market cap of Tesla. In this case, I think its not “that” deceptive, as zero is not usually a reference in this case.

And if Y started at zero the graph would accurately show 10%, which is huge on that timeline.
And people wouldn’t be used to it and would react appropriately.
Although I’d argue even then a month is deceptively short term when they’ve lost 50% this quarter
