It sounds to me from some of the postings here that some of you are getting too hasty and maybe even emotionally invested. Keep calm, take deep breaths. There's money to be made here, but it can be lost too...

Can be thanks to a huge amount of shares sold short (every short sold stock is actually sold twice, and thus counts twice). So the float is well above 100% (127% or so I believe).How can there be 88% institutional holdings when musk holds high 20% and other insiders need to be included

Not saying the citron numbers are accurate (don't know honestly), but just saying that technically it's absolutely possible, especially with a high-short-interest-stock like tesla.
Man shorts will do anything to stop Tesla these days! :tongue:Did you guys know about this? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r91F7oyWDb8 I know there were Teslas heading for Norway onboard, just dont know how many.

Well, that is seriously unfortunate. While listening to the video, I heard the voice over mention "batteries" on board, and thought maybe that's why you posted this. After re-reading your post, I realized you said there were Model S's on this train. Norse, where did you hear that there were Tesla's aboard? Can anyone else confirm, and if so how many?

I have never shorted TSLA, I have never even hedged.
12 years working for Norfolk Southern and Union Pacific shipping finished vehicles.
1) finished motor vehicles are NEVER shipped on flat cars, or in cargo containers.
2) finished motor vehicles are shipped in autorack railcars that have cushioned couplers. This prevents damage to vehicles in transit.
3) overseas shipments are sent to the port by autorack railcars, unloaded at/near port and then loaded in cargo containers for shipment.
A derailment would back up UP auto train coming from California and delay shipments. As far as any Tesla automobiles being on this derailed train is NOT likely.
The Federal Railroad Administration might view shipping Teslas differently than ICE because of gasoline. That could be why they ship the battery packs separately.
Times are changing..
Is there any evidence to suggest that anything TM related was on this train?
My understanding is that it has to do with cost of shipping/taxing separately vs whole. In that it's cheaper to ship the cars without their batteries and then to reassemble on that side of the ocean than to ship whole.

See Norse's post re: Norwegian Tesla Motors Club and a Norwegian customer being contacted by Tesla about this situation.

This seems most likely to me. The trains that were stuck were there for awhile. It might have caused Tesla to miss the ship to Norway.
Just read the Kia is coming out with a BEV. Don't know if that is big enough news for it to affect the stock.
