    Tesla, TSLA & the Investment World: the Perpetual Investors' Roundtable

    I agree, the share weighting makes it hard to see the size of retail investors voting against Elon. The didn't-bother-to-vote count is however certainly retail investors. They definitely became more engaged but we can't be certain if that engagement was positive or negative. But the law of...

    Tesla, TSLA & the Investment World: the Perpetual Investors' Roundtable

    The other vote for comparison is from June 2014 where they used slightly different methodology where votes not for Elon were not broken out in "against" and "abstained". But we can combine those in the more recent years and it doesn't significantly alter the numbers. The shareholder meeting on...

    Tesla, TSLA & the Investment World: the Perpetual Investors' Roundtable

    I understand that TSLA stock performance over the period is dominated by market macros. Maybe many of the shareholders voting aren't able to see that, but then maybe they can. As I said there are many factors mudding the waters.

    Tesla, TSLA & the Investment World: the Perpetual Investors' Roundtable

    For those seeking insight into how Elon's public persona has or hasn't affected product demand, here a bit of data that, like all other data sets, can't really answer the question but may nevertheless provide some insight. The latest shareholder vote results are out. They can be compared with...

    And by "always" you mean since the Holodomor in 1933.

    Elon & Twitter

    I know quite a few good-hearted people. None of them have been disowned by any of their family members. I also know (just professionally) a few black-hearted people who seemed to be filled with hate for for groups of people (as far as I can tell this appears to be a part of their religion as...

    Elon & Twitter

    Maybe they can win some defamation lawsuits against twitter. Twitter is now making continuous false claims that these people are paying to support something when they are not. If for example, this diminishes Stephen King's audience because he is seen as a mark/tool/right-winger, etc, then this...

    Elon & Twitter

    Actually Elon owns Twitter in large part because during his lawsuit to back out of the Twitter acquisition he lied in a deposition (you, know after swearing an oath to tell the truth) about not ever using the Signal App to communicate about the Twitter acquisition. Explanation why no responsive...

    Elon & Twitter

    What part of the crusade against the woke agenda is helping to feed starving Africans? Pandering to the racists, anti-Semites, misogynists, climate deniers, ultra-greedy, homophobes, gun-nuts, etc. is somehow relieving their "hectic and stressful lives" so they can "fix" the lives of others? I...

    Tesla, TSLA & the Investment World: the Perpetual Investors' Roundtable

    Pretty sure the lawyers are all about enriching themselves rather than having a goal of harming others.

    Tesla, TSLA & the Investment World: the Perpetual Investors' Roundtable

    Still not an equal comparison. Tesla's lease is 36 months, Toyota's is 39 months. It's hard to make a precise comparison because for the Toyota there are 6 additional $369 payments that you must make but you also get to use the car for 6 more months. Was there also a difference in allowed mileage?

    Even Elon claimed that he could never get a fair trial in California. The result sure proves that idea false.

    Tesla, TSLA & the Investment World: the Perpetual Investors' Roundtable

    Worse than the filing was their settlement terms - they forced Tesla to pay a $20 Million fine while prohibiting them from making an insurance claim to pay it. This harms one and only one group: TSLA shareholders. That's the group they were supposedly "protecting," at least it's the group they...

    Toni's just saying that the constant refrain of TSLAQ, "fraud," is false - instead he acknowledges the number don't lie. There's still no explanation why he has an underperfom rating except that he might be stupid like Toyoda.

    Tesla, TSLA & the Investment World: the Perpetual Investors' Roundtable

    You seem to have conflated the first generation RAV4 BEV (produced entirely by Toyota because Tesla didn't even exist in 1997) with the 2nd generation RAV4 BEV that had the Tesla powertrain (first available in 2012). Even the 1st Gen RAV4 could not have "yielded the wonderful Prius" because they...
