S & P sets Tesla's credit rating to B-

by

The upcoming car manufacturer received an unsolicited B- credit rating from Standard & Poor due to "considerable uncertainty" about its long-term prospects. The rating, six levels below investment grade, was derived independently of Tesla and comes after over $2.3 billion was successfully raised by the company in March to fund a new battery factory.

Shares in Tesla have risen 41 percent this year.

Given the way the auto industry has been trying to use the law to slow down Tesla and spreading a whole lot of FUD about it, at this point I'd say "it's a conspiracy!" is actually a very reasonable reaction when stuff goes wrong for them.
