    Now THAT's what I wanted to hear tonight!

    Elon & Twitter

    Elon announced that he will offer a Starship Twitter Spaces event exclusively for subscribers. I believe the concept of paid subscriptions contradicts Twitter's mission entirely. They aim to serve as a public town square, yet primarily promote content from paying users. Moreover, there appears...

    Elon & Twitter

    I understand your concern, but it has only been recently that individuals like Joe Schmoe have been given a platform to voice their opinions. We are currently in a time where it is unclear if this trend is beneficial for society as a whole. Elon Musk may believe that it is, as he advocates for...

    Elon & Twitter

    Elon’s Twitter behavior definitely has a negative impact on his public image. I watched the whole 3 hour presentation with my dad (not a Tesla investor) because my dad loves engineering. After the presentation he said “Tesla’s such an awesome company and they have amazing engineers working...

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

    This is great. This is what’s needed for the big transition to EVs. An EV just became a whole lot more affordable for people with smaller wallets. Will have to update my Wright’s law assumptions; I think this price cut means that production costs will drop far greater this year and in the...

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

    Today I purchased 17 more shares of Tesla at a cost of $119.11 per share. In the past few weeks, I have had doubts about my investment in Tesla due to the drop in stock price. However, my cost-basis per share is low since I purchased my shares during the Model 3 ramp in 2018, when Tesla was...

    Elon & Twitter

    Elon has done a great job at Tesla, but being CEO of the company with the world’s most important mission and >100,000 employees is not a part-time job! Promote him to Chief Product Officer (he would like that job more anyway!) and have another talented person take over the role of chief...

    Elon & Twitter

    Sadly the bigger picture is becoming clearer and clearer. How many controversies have we discussed here, increasingly over the past 2 years? Some argue that Elon is playing 4D chess and that all his Twitter outbursts are well-thought out. But I fall in the camp that they are not. He’s an...

    Russia/Ukraine conflict

    I respect your opinion and would happily ask moderators to open a new thread for this issue, I don’t mean to annoy you or anyone else. But by tweeting what he did less than 24 hours ago, Elon took two big steps into the geopolitical arena. His words got retweeted by Zelensky, Medvedev (😱!) and...

    Russia/Ukraine conflict

    I see that the discussion about Elon’s behavior on Twitter has been banned from the main investor’s thread and moved to this one. I respect the moderators decision and adhere to it but I have to say that I find it disappointing. The fact that the CEO of the company we have invested our money in...

    Russia/Ukraine conflict

    Yes for sure, which is a pity IMO. Imagine an Elon with his drive and love for humanity but without the questionable traits, he would be unstoppable.

    Russia/Ukraine conflict

    For a long time now I have been of the opinion that Elon is simultaneously the greatest catalyst and threat to $TSLA. A true double-edged sword. On the one hand his entrepreneurial spirit, drive and vision is unparalleled. On the other hand, I think that fame has risen above his head over the...

    Russia/Ukraine conflict

    What do you guys think is the chance of a WW3 event? Maybe some older people then me can chime in. In my 27 years on this planet I have never seen geopolitical tensions this high. To me it seems that anything stupid can happen at any moment, like Putin using a small tactical nuke or something...

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

    Elon looks very relaxed, that is great to see I always feel a bit uneasy with the crowds at his presentations though, they cheer and laugh at every word he says, and to me that is extremely cringey. Elon is there to convey important information not to be worshipped

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

    10,000 people might be fired, and loads more will fear for their job before all terminations have taken place. I don't blame any human feeling emotions about this and leaking an e-mail after hearing such news. I'm getting kind of tired of the seemingly (to the outside world) one-man show Musk is...

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

    I owe Elon a lot, and love the guy, but holy crap I wish that he didn’t have a Twitter account. I personally believe that the negative consequences of his tweets outweigh the positive. And taking political stances is a big no-no, even within your own family, anywhere in the world, but especially...

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

    Elon Musk's work ethic, passion for engineering, entrepreneurial spirit and strategic mind have made him one of the most important people in history IMO. The company he built today has single-handedly accelerated the transition to sustainable energy by at least 1 or 2 decades. He has countless...

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

    It's an absolute massacre today. There is red blood flowing everywhere, a true battlefield. Have I become so desensitised to volatility by HODLing TSLA for years that it doesn't even phase me one bit? I'm literally not batting an eyelid. Does that make me wise or a fool?

    Congratulations everyone!!🍾🥳 What is driving this massive volume and buying pressure? FOMO? A fat whale accumulating shares? Or are we at the tipping point where all deniers now suddenly see the light and want to get in before it is too late?

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

    Actually after googling a bit it seems that Tesla is involved with multiple projects in the area of New South Wales, in partnership with different energy companies. Perhaps they don't have the capacity right now because they have their hands too full already! But I am not familiar with these...

    Royal Dutch Shell secured a $2.5 billion contract for making a battery pack that stores energy from a nearby sun farm. Isn't this Tesla's specialty, why don't the Australian's order a second Hornsdale power reserve? Shell is a company that has shown multiple times over that they don't have...

    :S if he did not go on a tweeting spree Tesla’s balance sheet would have been multiple hundreds of millions stronger? IMO it would have been the better move to sell BTC and use the proceeds to fund another Gigafactory, to help the mission I don’t understand these actions at all

    Bitcoin is fine for me, even though I still not fully understand it. From what I have read and heard from experts in the field, Bitcoin is probably here to stay. However, Elon's tweets about involving Tesla with Dogecoin scare me a bit. The problem that I have with Dogecoin is that it is a meme...

    Does anyone know if ARK Invest has updated their Tesla price targets for 2024 already? Back in 2018 they published a white paper with a $1400 dollar base case, but of course Battery Day and the recent developments in FSD capabilities stirred things up a little. I tried looking for it but could...

    I was wondering, why does the table assume 10 GWh per line? In the presentation Drew talks about that they want to build assembly lines that have such a high speed that they can do 20 GWh per line:

    Below is an image with the 10 largest companies in the world in terms of revenue. The main point that I understood from this presentation is that Tesla is aiming to get a lion share of the generated revenues I marked in red... already by 2030...let thank sink in. If they succeed, holy hell

    Got in the stock in the beginning of 2017. As of today, I could pay off all my student loans if I decide to sell, and I haven't even graduated yet. But I think I am just going to HODL for another 5-10 years :)

    Coronavirus

    The genetic information of a coronavirus is stored in RNA. Reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) is used to diagnose patients. By sequencing Covid-19 (determined its genetic make-up, ACCTTTGGCC....) it is possible to make primers that stick onto these RNA strands. They will...
