Each company underlies the concept of the usage of renewable energies or to achieve sustainability with the unified goal to protect or safe our world. In terms of SpaceX this is established due to the goal to colonize the mars as a living alternative to our earth, SolarCity aims at creating homes fully running with solar energy, Hyperloop is an approach to shift and accelerate traffic and transportation under the ground and lastly, Tesla is manufacturing electric vehicles in order to reduce CO2-Emissions. As it could be seen, all these companies, founded or coordinated by Elon Musk, are operating in different areas, but are combined in their unified goal to make the world better.

The answer to all this, and why Tesla doesn¿t have to deal with severe downgrading of Tesläs stock price, is due to the fact that to a high percentage the ratings are dependent on their CEO Elon Musk.
