    10% 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 in this case I’d argue even then a month is deceptively short term when they’ve lost 50% this quarter
