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

    1410 is the level at which I own $1,000,000 worth of TSLA. I've accumulated these shares since 2013. I'm not sure I would have remained calm enough to hold through the dark times if it wasn't for this forum. Thank you. P.S. Not selling until Tesla is at least a $1 Trillion company.

    2017 Investor Roundtable:General Discussion

    I could easily sort out Ford and GM's pension deficit problem. Simply sell $3bn of their current pension fund assets and reinvest those funds in $TSLA. In about 5 years they'll easily be able to cover the deficit with the huge profits they will make from that investment.

    Yes, the charging rate is the main weakness I can see so far. However, it is the best car any manufacturer other than Tesla has come up with at the moment. I think the other luxury car manufacturers are going to be announcing similar cars over the next 6 months. Autopilot and the...

    No, I didn't assume that, because I'm not stupid. There is nothing to assume with regard to the paint shop and stamping press. It is clear that the work has been done. You're wrong, but stick your head in the sand for all I care.

    Technically, there should be some resistance around the 246.80 level. If we break and close above that level by a dollar or more I think it will be a very bullish signal. However, there is also a case for resistance at 251 and 257. Still, weighing up where the resistance may be sure beats...

    Yeah, I did have a look at that. I don't normally pay as much attention to moving averages, becuase I've had more luck with fibonacci levels in the past.

    The bears are loving this. Looking at what is being said on Twitter, a lot think it's going down further, most think that it will drop to between 150 and 180.

    Often, when a stock has been moving up with so few pullbacks, any news can cause a big drop like this.
