The core investment question

What exists?

What can actually be invested in today?

What economics does it have?

What are the asset-level unit economics?

What is coming?

What do disclosures, regulation, permits, hiring, registrations and OSINT suggest comes next?

Where should capital go?

Cybercab vehicle, fleet, mobility hub, charging, real estate, financing, supplier, TSLA — or nowhere yet?
