Yep. All shorts opened within 52 weeks are in the money. All the longs opened within 52 weeks are out of the money. So no short squeeze, but long squeeze.
Sorry but this statement is just nonsense. Tesla Motors Inc. is a Publicly Traded company, stock symbol TSLA. It is managed by a CEO and an Executive team with oversight from a Board of Directors for the benefit of its Shareholders. Specifically, its long term shareholders who expect to be paid eventually and handsomely in the form of Dividends.
Not Traders and speculators. Obviously not Short Sellers betting against the company.
You cannot squeeze a Shareholder.
To squeeze a short seller during a market disruption the correct strategy is simply to allow short sellers to to talk. No fiduciary duty is owed to correct them.
Every single underpinning of the short thesis at present is in error. I could list them out and this would become a megapost - demand, doors, oil, GM Bolt/competition in general, burning cash, profitability, GF partnerships, competing battery tech, valuation parity to auto stocks etc etc etc - all 100% wrong. If any if it was inverted as a reason to be long at a 52 week high it would be called juvenile hubris. Could Tesla correct all of those errors with PR releases? Yes. Absolutely.
Would that be in the best interests of long term shareholders? No. Absolutely not.
Talk is cheap. It's results will silence these idiots. That and product that theirs cannot compete with. That's right, more than half of the short thesis out there is frightened competitors bad-mouthing this company. Not analysis generated by competent traders.
The advantage a competent trader has with this stock is near absolute.
Buy when others are fearful. No need to take my word for it, investing alongside Musk will do equally well.
