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

    Some notes from SEC Chairman Gesler's appearance on CNBC this AM: Payment for Order Flow: “Inherent” conflicts of interest that exist in the payment-for-order flow business model used by Robinhood and other brokerages that do not charge commissions. SEC will look at this, solicit public...

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

    Options gurus: I'm trying to figure out why the calls to puts ratio in ARKK is so skewed towards puts. Is ARKK potentially being used as a "backdoor" short against its holdings, which of course includes Tesla at 10% weighting? On the one hand I can understand utility in ARKK puts as a...

    What state are you? Sounds like we ordered the same X. Did you order Plaid? Congrats on the email, hopefully that means delivery is imminent.

    What other tech stock to consider?

    I don't, but it sounds like the two couldn't agree on price. This article presents a fair/neutral analysis on the company and also details Velo3D's relationship with SpaceX.

    What other tech stock to consider?

    I've been steadily adding shares of SPFR (SPAC merging with Velo3D). Velo3D does significant work for SpaceX; SpaceX is a longtime customer and previously attempted to buy VeLo3D. ARK Invest has been adding shares to its ARKX (space) and ARKQ (robotocs) ETFs.

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

    Just speculation here, but assuming ARK sold at today's midpoint of ~$755 (daily range $728-$780), it's possible ARK took the opportunity to scale its TSLA weighting in ARKK & ARKW back closer to 10% while redeploying that capital into shares of Coinbase. ARKK - 185,712 shares * $755 =...

    February 8, originally just after ordering I saw April estimated delivery, then it disappeared completely (not even the words Estimated Delivery" were there) until it reappeared this morning with April.

    It's also about efficiency. More hardware, less range. Ultimately, if you can achieve the same or greater performance via vision (and you absolutely can) without the bloat of radar/lidar then it's a no-brainer.

    If I'm reading Ark Invest's second SEC filing from Friday correctly (the first filing being notice that ARKX may launch tomorrow), it appears Ark has lifted its self-imposed exposure cap to an individual stock, effectively immediately. It's not obvious from the text itself, (link - SEC), but...

    What other tech stock to consider?

    Thoughts on IPO vs direct listing? Agreed it likely won't SPAC. But I find merits for both (1) a traditional IPO approach which grants preferential access to shares to TSLA investors, and certain classes of other investors; and (2) a direct listing (as with PLTR).
