The situation was so bad that one influential Wall Street analyst raised the possibility that Tesla wouldn't be able to pay its bills and would have to be restructured financially. > Since then, the electric car and solar panel maker's shares have skyrocketed, rising over 700% this year alone. Monday morning it will join the prestigious S&P 500 index with a market value of over $600 billion. It's the largest addition in the history of the index.
