This is a great video to watch: Maxwell Could Be Worth BILLIONS To Tesla The other companies do not have value for Maxwell. Tesla acquiring it without competition means that for other companies, this acquisition would have been a liability for the near-term or even long-term. It sets a precedence. Tesla might be too far […]
