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

[BornToFly]

I was operating until 1am, so I haven't read all the posts since BD. But that was the most incredible look into the future of battery cells and manufacturing at Tesla, with complete domination and a 2T market cap guaranteed. Anyone who doesn't buy and hold TSLA is a moron.

 

[Krugerrand]

What I got out of Rob's interview is that Gordon's position is that production/ sales will go up, but so will costs, prices will drop, so the revenue/ profit has peaked.
Don't agree with that, but it is at least less self contradictory.

Thank you for the translation. All I heard was blah, blah, blah, I’m talking out my arse, blah, blah, blah, I get paid by the word, blah, blah, blah, I wonder what I’ll have for dinner, harmonica, purple, dusty, spanx.

In for one Oct30 $500 call @ $38.15. Here we go kids!

Doubled down this morning @ $26.02

Battery Day delayed reaction.
3Q numbers
Inclusion?

Give me all three of those and we cross $600.

Is this a new model on the drawing board? Looks like a fast hatch, a smaller Model Y.

I thought the exact same thing as I was watching it - was hoping to see a distinctly different image of a Y on the same presentation to know for sure, but didn't.

Not sure how many of you follow the sentiment on Reddit, but /r/cars typically deletes posts about Tesla and bans users for posting about EVs...

But this morning they're fawning over the Model S Plaid specs: Plaid Model S will do 0-60 in under 2 seconds, and is now available for preorder. Available late 2021. : cars

 

[CaliBear1]

Counting on a modest MMD to trigger my purchase of 45 more shares at 400. C’mon, daddy needs a new Roadster!

And...boom! Thank you shortsighted market!

I see more and more news outlets coming out with the story about the new Tesla battery that will be 5x energy resulting in 16% range improvements. Note to Elon: Put everything into the 1st slide - they are morons and always skip the video with the sound off till the 1st slide

 

[EV Promoter]

I never thought sincerity and transparency were the best Elon Musk's qualities.
But tonight (EU time), hearing his statements on the cathod process not yet giving the optimal yield, something that could have easely remained concealed, he gained my total trust and admiration as a man, for life. It takes balls.

 

[Nocturnal]

Did they mention an estimate on weight savings by using the cells as structural components? I may have missed that. That bit really made me perk up.

I have to assume you are one of the few forum members who doesn't spend half the work day staring at the stock ticker.

 

[CaliBear1]

I love the specs, but I must admit I will be very disappointed if the Plaid S does not come with a refreshed interior and design cues from the Roadster 2.0.

There's a massive (competitive) market to which they don't have access at the moment because their vehicles are too large. Might have been a sneak peek at a compact hatch sketch.

Obviously they know how competitive that market is, hence the $25k with gadgets comment.

This is just an obvious evolution, because the cells need to be cheaper and available at massive scale:
Roadster used commodity cells.
Model S had physically modified cells created with a chosen recipe.
Model 3 had cells locally manufactured, with Tesla working more closely with the cell manufacturer.
Next generation vehicles will have cells manufactured by Tesla.

I had one at 396, just dinged! A couple more at 390, if that happens.

To bears wearing short shorts: Is that all you got ?!?!
Come on, give me a better price to buy at!
