An unprofitable electric vehicle maker has suddenly become the third most valuable auto manufacturer in the world, leaving the likes of General Motors Co. and Ford Motor Co. in its dust.

Shares of Vietnam’s VinFast Auto have soared almost 700% since it listed in mid-August — even though it hasn’t made many cars yet, let alone turned a profit.

VinFast, which began building a factory in North Carolina in July, forecasts sales will reach 45,000 to 50,000 this year and Vuong predicts the company will break even by the end of 2024 and could be profitable after 2025.

However, given VinFast’s volatility, the Bloomberg index for now excludes Vuong’s stake from his net worth. That leaves him with a $5 billion fortune consisting of his shares in Vingroup JSC, the conglomerate he founded, net of cash outlays, dividends and stock transactions.Is the share price going to crash back down?
