“(He thinks it won’t be large and growing for long. “If you believe in Airbound, you should short Tesla. There’s not much point to a self-driving car when you can have a self-flying car,” he told me once, half kidding I think.)”

Model assessment
The only Tesla-specific evidence in the article is Airbound founder Naman's offhand, self-described half-joking remark that if you believe in Airbound you should short Tesla because a self-flying car would make a self-driving car pointless. Packy McCormick frames it as bravado and notes he thinks Naman was half kidding. This is a speculative, promotional aside about a competitor's long-run positioning, not a material negative catalyst or impairment of Tesla's expected fundamentals, so it does not support a SELL. With no prior system signal available for HOLD and no supported positive catalyst for Tesla, the appropriate operation is DO_NOTHING.
