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

    Ford's price cut of the Mustang Mach-E won't really help them much in the long run, as it will only make it even harder for them scale up their production. Tesla pretty much forced their hands on this by their recent price cut, as not doing anything at all would be worse. In a capitalist...

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

    Great points and totally agree with this. We know most of these Wall Street analysts tend to have a short-term perspective, only viewing things one quarter at a time, and grasping things like how an S-curve production scales over the long term or the potential impact of FSD, Robotaxis and...

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

    Probably those who have the money to get everything they want, and could just toss out a "measly" $250k of pocket change on a Tesla Roadster 2.0 as well, so I'd imagine these high end companies would be fine for now. I'd imagine these buyers would likely have more than one vehicle in their...

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

    I'm happy for you that you could possibly be getting one so soon. For myself, as much as I'm looking forward to the new Roadster, I'm not betting on it coming out later this year and I don't think Tesla needs to focus on it so soon. I'd much rather have them focus on other vehicles like CT...

    Thanks for sharing this video. To think this was 43 years ago, just a few years shy of half a century ago. How much progress has been made since then?

    2017 Investor Roundtable: TSLA Market Action

    Yup, the gap between $318 to $327 is now filled. Next gap to be filled is between $340 to $352, from last Tuesday's half-day close.

    2017 Investor Roundtable: TSLA Market Action

    Looks like there were 99 ask lots (versus 1 bid lot) near $299.00 minutes before closing ... or was that ask lot field simply maxing out at 99? :D

    2017 Investor Roundtable: TSLA Market Action

    Makes sense, as the yearly low ($178) and high ($287) is a $109 range and -38.2% fibonacci from the high (or +61.8% from the low) is about $245 (50-day EMA is $245). But wait, a bullish TSLA report posted on CNBC? Is that even possible?!

    RBC upgrades their PT by a whopping $69 leading to not much price action, and GS downgrades by a mere $5 leading to a big drop of 5% in one day. Makes sense.

    2017 Investor Roundtable: TSLA Market Action

    Nice bounce in the past hour from the $250 mark back up to breakeven from yesterday's close. I'm looking for a close today in the green around $260. Also note, at some point there is a gap to be filled between $263 - $273 from yesterday's opening.

    I'm pretty sure that the CFO at BMW isn't that stupid to not be aware of the numbers versus the competition (easily found with a quick google search), but rather made such a statement on the bet that the public will just take his word for it and doesn't fact check because he is seen as an...

    This is exactly what GM plans to do with the Bolt EV. Sell a small batch this Fall, with large volume to start early 2017. This way, they can verifiably say the Bolt launched in 2016 (without mentioning the time in the year) and make it sound like they launched a full year before Model 3...

    Short-Term TSLA Price Movements - 2016

    Despite all the amazing progress Tesla has made in the past year, the current TSLA price is clearly not reflecting much of this. This is just short-term volatility, as the company fundamentals are stronger than ever and with a ton of future potential. The current situation is one where we...

    Lutz: "The share price of TSLA vs. GM should be reversed, and then things would be about in balance." The real BS starts at 1:55, when he says that GM is the leader in electrification, new battery technology, the first with an EV with 240 mile range at an affordable price, and at this point has...

    The rest of the market today has been declining steadily since the morning and bringing down TSLA / SCTY with it (in addition to the merger event tonight). Just look at the price action when you plot a chart overlap with the NASDAQ, DOW J, SPY, S&P 500, TSE, etc.

    Not sure why this fundamental change (record deliveries) is not moving the needle much, but TSLA does seem to be in a technical downward channel since April, with peak resistances at roughly $265 (April 5th), $235 (July 29) and $215 (Oct 3rd). We all know that Tesla doesn't actually lose money...

    Well, there are about EIGHT articles about TSLA up just today, over at Seeking Bias / Seeking Mediocrity / Seeking Manipulation, including ones written by the usual suspects like Anton Whaleman, Mustache Skeptic and Poorman Santos.

    Short interest down 10% from March 31 to April 15, from about 32.3M to 29.1M (update released yesterday after close). During this period, we had a $230 pps prior to the Model 3 unveil event, April 7th high of $270, and following days stabilizing around $250. Tesla Motors, Inc. (TSLA) Short...

    SolarCity (SCTY)

    We're rebounding off the $16.50 low of the post-ER drop (-25%) yesterday after stabilizing. The +13% today looks like a combination of long-term investors scooping up more shares at an attractive price and possible short covering. Shorts would be smart to lock in profits now (I'm looking at...

    Short-Term TSLA Price Movements - 2016

    I agree. It's more difficult to spread FUD and have it influence investors and the stock price when we're in an uptrend momentum. Rather, these FUDsters need to ride on an existing downward momentum to obtain maximum effect, and can easily put extra emphasis on the "bad" news that already came...

    This is getting ridiculous. Down 10% per day over three days, about 30% down since Monday's close and still no circuit breaker kicking in? Also, no specific bad news recently, just some overall market decline and this Chanos BS this week. Effectively, any actual bad news for this ER is...

    We're down ~ 10% two days in a row. Where's the circuit breaker? In the past one week, we've lost ~ 30% of the share value with no negative news, just overall market being down in May so far.

    Seems like the overall market plunged in the past hour of trading, as the NASDAQ, DOW, SPY, S&P500 are all down ~1% and are dragging TSLA and SCTY down about 3% and 6% respectively ($240 and $30).

    Down 3% in the past hour and closing in on that $250 mark where max pain is allegedly. Do you think this Ronnie Moas guy is on CNBC specifically today to intentionally push things back down to max pain levels and try to close at that for the week? I still can't find his interview on their...

    It's funny how shorts argue there is lacking demand for Teslas, that Model 3 unveil will only be design sketches at best, that the Chevy Bolt will be a Tesla-killer. Now, it's been revealed to be a working and test-drivable Model 3 that packs better value for money than the Bolt in all three...

    The fact that February was essentially net-zero change (no change from the start and end of the past one month period) at about $200, and the bounce back up 42% from the $141 low mid-month was 100% macro related, this is great news. I'd much rather see these positive catalysts in 2016 to...

    After a quick skim on the news on Yahoo Finance (Reuters, CNBC, MarketWatch, USA Today), it is clear that they focused only on EPS and Revenue, and did not even look at the positive details at the top of the Shareholder Letter. Smells of manipulation and one-sided bias.

    The market acts as if the ITC news back in December never happened. SCTY went up to about $58 shortly after the news, and after this 2016 downturn plus this ER is now at $20 (in AH). About 65% down in a month and a half.
