2017 Investor Roundtable: TSLA Market Action

[TrendTrader007]

can not thank short sellers enough for paying for my next 3 Teslas including a MS and 2 M3s
after-hours enough to pay for about 6 or 7 top of the line fully loaded MS
fully committed to buying a MS over the next few months or weeks
might load up on more TSLA tomorrow
not a whole lot maybe another 1000 to 2000
not at the open though
will sleep over it tonight and decide in AM

Many companies never issue dividends. See Berkshire for example...

But what else is he gonna do with the money? I guess if the stock is still below $800 by 4Q18 he can start repurchasing shares... we'll see.

My primary point is: Tesla has more cash than it needs for 2H17 on its balance sheet, and it will soon start generating more cash than it can possibly spend.

I love the way you think.

I think we should all get together on TMC, put in $10 each and get then a new audio system.

But they started with a new Audio system. I bet someone didn't read the instructions. With multiple microphones it probably had built in noise cancelling, and it was probably somebody's job to switch the active microphones or at least space them further apart. It seemed like the system was cancelling out everytime Elon tried to speak.

Maybe it was the dawn of AI!

Please, No dividends till 2020 at the earliest. Start 3-4 GFs per year if they literally have as much money as you suspect.

How much does it cost to buy the Texas,Arizona,Utah,Connecticut,Virginia and Michigan legislatures?

Unfortunately, add Louisiana to that list.

 

[ZenMan]

Unfortunately, add Louisiana to that list.

You guys are thinking too small. All they have to do it buy SCOTUS once, and that will solve all the State problems.

You don't have to say please; I'm not the one deciding.

Even if they build 5 Gigafactories simultaneously, that's $3B per year... and don't forget that as these additional Gigafactories start coming online in 2H19, they will add to gross profit.

 

[Krugerrand]

I agree it is probably good. But now I'm confused - we were told last time that Y would be on a new platform which would provide the first true example of alien dreadnought efficiency. If Y will instead be built on the human dreadnought Model 3 platform (largely), then does that mean that:

a. we won't get alien efficiency till some subsequent model TBD, or
b. we are already alien efficient with M3, or will be sometime soon??

He talked about reducing the length of cable for the Y, so no, still working on alien dreadnought. You can never forget the speed at which Tesla innovates. They change direction if and when they discover a new/better way faster than the wind. Don't assume (or become confused) that because they've decided to use as much of Model 3 as they can to bring Model Y to market as fast as possible, that alien dreadnaught has been shelved. They'll simply solve the new set of problems and come up with other ways to breathe life into the alien. It's still a go, just going down a different path but still headed in the same direction.

 

[MitchJi]

PLUS - Model Y (which may or may not be know as that... thank goodness) will be based more significantly off Model 3 rather than based on an all-new platform. GOOD.

What is even better is that he said that the M3 will be updated to include the MY wiring harness (and probably more) features that will simply production.

 

[TrendTrader007]

He was so bang on, one might expect he had some insider information. Amazing.

LOL insider information? i'm a super busy fully practicing MD far removed from Silicon Valley with barely time to spare to look at stock quotes.
my single passion is reading stock charts and betting like crazy on a single stock
i'm simply a gambler who got lucky

You know a short squeeze is around the corner when this guy talks about covering and shutting up

There is a special corner in Hell waiting for this dude. Of that I have no doubt.

 

[TrendTrader007]

Well guys who are not TT007, what's the ETA on us becoming rich?

I'm not leveraged, I hold straight shares.

read hundreds of stock charts like Dan Zanger does
and bet like a drunken sailor when you're right
and cut your losses like a nun when wrong
JK!
not an advice

PM me if you need an owner referral. Would be a shame for all those Model S to not have unlimited free supercharging.

Are you kidding me? He'll never run out of ideas and dreams to spend the money on. Never.

 

[MitchJi]

Holy crap 100% probability of 25% GM on Model 3 some time next year!

Add that together with 100% probability of getting to 10K per week and WOW.

He said 10k or more!

If Mark BS is getting ready to fold the tent, all the smart shorts will be covering tomorrow. I should get up early tomorrow and add to my stake before the jump.

 

[JRP3]

It's actually easy.

Don't you aspire to be a better person than that?

I am a better person than the shorts. I'm not spending my time typing reams of lies trying to destroy a company who's mission is to improve life on earth and preserve the environment upon which we all depend.

I think he is living in his own private one now.

 

[kbM3]

One aspect that struck me was Elon bowing to the executive team on Model Y redirection. When you are as smart and correct as often as he is, it must be difficult to be able to really listen to their opinions and change his mind.

thanks will do once ready to buy MS wanna wait a few weeks for SP to settle down first
