Sick burn, bro.

We get it, Tesla and Elon are terrible. Why are you here?

Today is like your Super Bowl. I know you’ve been hoping for this day for a long time; I hope you enjoy it! :)

Congrats to him! I was concerned his patreon revenue might drop.

Most importantly, how did Troy do?

That’s a lot of exclamation marks for a reply that has nothing to do with the original post (or the entire thread)! I hope your new Corolla brings you happiness!

OMG! I’m glad I decided to check TMC this morning so I know what atrocities Tesla is doing to ruin the world today!

Ejection seat?

Bro, I agree with your continuous premise… shareholders should hand over their TSLA keys and just walk away. It’s all doomed to come crashing down any minute now given the Dark and Stormy (and super scary!) environment we are in. TSLA will never learn to execute 100% in line with their...

Golly, it’s so Dark and Stormy in Berlin and Austin. Maybe they can burn them down and collect insurance at least?

💯! Everyone should have to sign an oath under penalties of perjury that they have read every one of the 20,915 pages of posts in the investment thread before posting a response to any post about headlights. Probably best to have the document notarized as well. I’ll go back to never posting...

Stormy’s real good at “just asking questions” and “doing his own research.”

I do agree with you. Just being silly. Mods feel free to delete my post.

You are absolutely correct, it does not say “they will be delivered.” It says “$TSLA will deliver…”

Thank you for your continued insightful commentary. Those verified reports make me realize how dark and stormy TSLA’s future is. It’s all bad news everyday. On an unrelated note, I’m trying to change my user name to TheSkyisFalling. Would someone be able to help me?

Wow. That sounds dark and stormy.

Sounds dark and stormy.

Watch out Mary, looks like we have another “leader” on our hands!

Anyone having any issues with their USB since installing this update? Since about the time I installed 12.3.1, every day when I first get in the car there is a red X on the camera with an error message. The only way I have been able to get rid of the error is by unplugging and replugging in...

From googling the email address, yes Christopher is an attorney from Florida.

Any merit to that whole already on 2022.4.X so they won’t take you back to 2021.X issue others have noted?

Generally moving states is not an on/off switch for taxing equity compensation. I would expect CA to tax their “share,” likely based on splitting the income based on days Elon worked in CA versus total work days between the grant date and exercise. In the long-term the move to TX should be...

My understanding is that Sec. 83(b) elections generally are not relevant to stock options. I haven’t looked into all of the details of the options at issue, but based on what I know I don’t believe a Sec. 83(b) election would have been on the table.

But I would expect Elon personally moving to Texas would be quite helpful to his personal tax situation.

I wouldn’t expect any material changes in income tax as a result of the HQ move. Generally, federal taxable income is spread amongst states to each tax their share based on various factors (i.e., sales in the state and, in certain states, payroll and property). Both California and Texas...

For context, I am a U.S. CPA that focuses on corporate tax. Unless there is tax reform that removes or makes Sec. 162(m) more lenient (not the direction I would expect it to go if it were to be modified), then I would not expect Tesla to get a meaningful tax deduction for Elon’s stock options...

Wouldn’t Sec. 162(m) limit the Company’s tax deduction on any compensation (including stock option exercises) to Elon and any other “covered employee” to $1 million per year? Thus, the stock compensation itself would not create additional tax losses. Of course, assuming that is the case then...

yikes. I saw Tesla Ford and was afraid this message was from a future that went horribly wrong

In all seriousness, is anyone able to ID any of this music? Instrumental version of the new Grimes album, probably.

It would not fall under the “gift tax” but it would be subject to income tax. Same with game show prizes, contest winnings, etc.

Why would the impairment charge not hit the income statement?

Neurolink is getting better by the second

Just pointing out that they have a large amount of Federal NOL and R&D credit carryforward. So, if they were wanting to benefit these deferred tax assets that currently have a valuation allowance on them (and wouldn’t otherwise be releasing the reserve), they could decide to sell and recognize...

When a capital gains tax increase was specifically asked about on last night’s press call on the plan, the response was “...capital gains is not addressed here. The reason for that is that the focus of this plan is on - is on corporate tax reform and reforming the corporate tax system. And we...

A perfect illustration as to the unknown of what the final language will look like. I am personally waiting to pull the trigger until there is clarity. Not related to the effective date, but I would be shocked if a “blank check” version like S395 that has no volume caps for 10 years makes it...

We don’t know how the law will end up written, but the language in the GREEN Act from last month would not work that way. Under the definition of “exclusion period,” Tesla purchases made before the enactment date of the law would not qualify for credit. So if you purchased a Tesla today and...
