“One of the largest funding trades in S&P history”. I wish I fully understood the implications.

I received my Short Shorts just last week. My wife is so very happy as we also bought a Model X recently. Fun to see the Astronauts being driven in 3 Model X for the historic SpaceX launch.

If there are any shorts left after this then Elon could always help them out with another stock split after Q4 earnings.

This is way OT (especially with everything going on) but I had to post this It's a song by a band called the Rentals who I used to like in the 1990s. The main guy is one of the members of Weezer. It's actually a very cute and funny song.
How common/rare is it that the S+P would 'consult members of the investment community' as to how the addition should be made?
Seems like further evidence that they don't really know what they're doing.

They are already dead, they just don’t know it.
YouTube is providing a platform for far more in-depth analysis than CNBC could ever hope to provide, without annoying commercials for adult diapers. It also provides better entertainment. Most young people never even had cable. I’m 40 and haven’t for well over a decade. I only have CNBC by accident with my YouTube tv subscription and I rarely watch.

Timing couldn't be worse for me, sold 30 shares @450 about a week ago. I was actually about to buy it back at $408 today when I got disctracted by contractors working on the house fixing our bathroom, then I never made the trade. I guess I will try to buy back in at a loss. Can't win them all right?
While he does admit there "could be" a squeeze, his target of $460 for 12/21 seems very naive, not accounting for retail/meme buyup and short squeeze. I also doubt that these AH purchases today are for the purpose of attenuating the squeeze—who will want to sell during the squeeze?
Dave Lee's take on this historic announcement is really worth watching. His words on the travails of Tesla over the years, the way the outsider has beaten the establishment, and Tesla being a force for good are quite emotional! Overall a great watch and a lovely way to celebrate the moment.

So true, @DaveT it was obviously an emotional moment for you. It was great to be able to fully understand the significance of this moment way beyond what the stock price is doing. Thank you for putting this in perspective.

So true. Getting HW3 FSD computer installed today. Paid $8,000 for it a couple of weeks ago. Just trying to help Tesla out while they struggle through these hard times.

I am not joking. My wife is drinking large bottles of prep for her colonoscopy tomorrow morning. We close over 500 tomorrow for sure!

That’s what happens when the maths gets too big for the brain. Just looked at myself in the mirror while doing similar calculations and had the exact same expression on my face. Mom might actually have called it again.

I'm thinking a certain house buying Belgian might be slightly upset with his wifes timing when they wake up.
