<p>China’s market regulator, the State Administration for Market Regulation, met with Tesla’s local subsidiaries in February over increased consumer reports of vehicle problems and later on issued a statement saying it places high importance on the Shanghai auto show incident.

China’s market regulator, the State Administration for Market Regulation, met with Tesla’s local subsidiaries in February over increased consumer reports of vehicle problems and later on issued a statement saying it places high importance on the Shanghai auto show incident.

Tesla is mainly a US company but with the growing wealth in China and Tesla's market positioning as the high-end EV, it has managed to gain substantial traction in China and doubled its sales contribution from 20 to 40% by March 2021. 
BYD also announced that a total of 1500 Tang SUVs will be delivered to Norway before the end of the year as the company commits to accelerating its European and global strategies. The initial 100 cars are scheduled for delivery to Norwegian customers in the third quarter of this year.

BYD is added into Hang Seng China Enterprises Index (HSCEI INDEX) and Hong Kong Hang Seng Index (HSI INDEX) at the same time while other names are involved with one or some are two - moving from one to another. 

BYD is trading at 84% PER discount, 83% EV/EBITDA discount, and 73% PBR discount to Tesla while its share price also lagged behind Tesla's in the past 6 months. 

Given BYD's foray into battery technology has started to yield fruit and Tesla's market share in China may be in danger, it is probably a good time to start shorting Tesla and long BYD.
