meglio = better
peggio = worse
migliore = best
peggiore = worst

I wouldn't really use peggio to say "Too bad" though. I think I'd say "Peccato per lui" rather than "peggio per lui" for "Too bad for him."

...it's up 67.5% from this date last year.
It was grossly overvalued last year & just got worse.

being over valued is the bogus promise of self driving cars, which we are now 5 years past the due date.
At some point investors will realze Tesla does not have 10 X growth in the future.
