    Short-Term TSLA Price Movements - 2014

    TSLA is down thanks to oil. It will get back over the 200 DMA once oil stabilizes.

    SolarCity (SCTY)

    Cramer is starting to flip flop on his momentum stock recommendations. Now he's calling FSLR a "Deep Value Play". Earlier today he recommended SCTY as a buy. What is a momentum stock? Can a stock that has fallen 45% in 2 months still be considered a momentum stock that everyone is afraid of...

    SolarCity (SCTY)

    TSLA hit $180 and bounced higher fast. A lot of people were looking for it to hit $180. I hope they all had their limit orders in place to catch it! Now they will expect $170. I see $200 before $170.

    SolarCity (SCTY)

    I posted earlier and still agree with my assumption that today was all about short sellers ganging up on the stock during the day while the longs sat back patiently waiting for earnings to hit. Some daredevils bought today and did well. It's going to be interesting to see what type of short...

    SolarCity (SCTY)

    I wish I was available for the conf call today. Don't forget they raised guidance for the rest of the year as well so no signs of slowing down anytime soon. If anyone could tell from the report what % of revenue came from sales vs. lease that would be great. It looked like 66% roughly was lease...

    Sentiment poll: If you had to go long or short 100 shares of SCTY at today's closing price and hold it until the next earnings report release, which direction would you bet?

    SolarCity (SCTY)

    Both TSLA and SCTY report at 4pm so there is no news. I wish there was news cause I hate seeing SCTY down 12% while TSLA is only down 3% and neither company has any news out today. The good news is SCTY filled a gap on the chart for 11/29/2013 at ~$49. The August high of $45.60 was hit too as...

    SolarCity (SCTY)

    Are you speculating that the insiders are dumping the stock today? TSLA is only down 3% so I highly doubt that is the case. We'd see both stocks down big if insiders were dumping stock. It would be nice to know the reason the stock is down 11% on no news at all.

    SolarCity (SCTY)

    Down 11% is definitely overblown. I hope this drop in price has nothing to do with the earnings coming out. The shorts are probably just standing tall while the longs sit on the sidelines trying to buy more cheap after ER.

    SolarCity (SCTY)

    Does anyone have any thoughts why SCTY is down 8% today with earnings coming out after the close? I can't find any news that would make me want to sell the stock today?

    I am not here to recreate SCTY's retained value model. I was asking for someone else who thought they had a better one to show it to everyone. I agree with the way SCTY is calculating their retained value as well as the cost of capital figures they use. Until we are farther into the future no...

    SolarCity (SCTY)

    I agree with their model so I'm not about to try to improve it. There are a ton of people who disagree with the retained value model but I think I've only seen one revised model of what they felt was better and it didn't have many numbers supporting it. It's amazing how people feel retained...

    SolarCity (SCTY)

    Come out with a model for retained value and educate us all. You must have not read my entire post. Until someone comes out with a better one I'm sticking with the companies model, which I completely understand and agree with. I think they have been conservative with their numbers and I believe...

    SolarCity (SCTY)

    You're correct Auzie. Elon said on tv that the stock was fairly priced if not a little overprice. I've never seen or read anything where he hyped up the stock price of SCTY or TSLA stating it was undervalued. It's ok to bash a stock here and have it posted but the moment you come to defend the...

    SolarCity (SCTY)

    The market was down quite a bit today so I wouldn't expect FSLR to jump above the high of the day but it obviously surprised to the upside which was my point. It took the sector higher in after-hours. It's a hell of a lot better than a miss or just matching expectations. I never said Elon came...
