Don't disagree with any of this, except for the fact that you use present tense. TSLA volume is way too low right now for any of this to be currently going on. If there are buyers, it's definitely not anybody big. I think the main reason for the rise from $410 to $550 has been some speculation, and mostly the fact that almost nobody is selling. TSLA is trading at ATHs like it's just another day at the office.

I'm not completely convinced of that. I think if they split into two tranches and are able to smooth out the buying, there's a better chance that the stock price rises and levels off, compared to an all-at-once scenario that's more likely to feature a big jump followed by a modest-if-not-sizeable drop. And surely there would then be various parties who attempt to turbocharge the drop. I don't think that kind of volatility is good for anyone -- seeing a giant drop is likely to also crank up the FUD (especially if it can be said to negatively impact the S&P performance), and convince otherwise good investors to stay away from this "risky" stock.
I guess if your "investor" time frame is long enough, all that would be lost in the noise.
Still, I feel like an "investor" yet I'd like to replace the minivan with a Model X and get a Solarglass Roof and etc. and a lot of chop in 2021 wouldn't do me any good (even if I was going to go for loans rather than actually selling shares).
Exactly...so what happens when a large volume of shares HAS to be bought at any price?

What's with the current premium on Jan 15 calls? I'm seeing around $116 for $450 strikes with SP $96 above them. You'd think even with IV only just rebounding you'd get more than a $20 premium per share 7.5 weeks out.

So antsy; too funny.
This is me still doing nothing and making a mint, all before I even put my pants on to greet the day.
We all need to work on some inner peace.
Wrong! I for one have never seen a cat with pants...short short's maybe...but pants?

Most people here don't put "investor" in quotations, that's the difference in sentiment. People here are buying dips and holding above 80% of their position through at least 2025. Therefore a 30% turbocharged drop is generally welcomed, so long as it doesn't interfere with options plays.
TSLA is far far far beyond any FUD attack or 30% drop in SP having an impact on day-to-day operations, let alone the mission itself.

This is all well and good except for the fact that "everyone" knows it. MM's and big traders know far more precisely what's going to happen and more importantly where things are in the process timing-wise. Yes, there should be an "immovable object" event at some point, but when everybody knows about it the variance goes way up. Literally anything could happen. Let us not forget, this game is at it's core is rigged.

So hard to maintain work focus on days like this.
And there have been many days like this lately!

What are the chances the S&P 500 tracking funds buy call options now and choose to exercise them during the buying window to lock in their price?
My advice... buy a Model Y now (especially if you are currently driving an ICE). It will be a while before you can test drive a Cybertruck. The Y will hold its value better than just about any car. It will be the best car you've ever owned. You will save a ton on gas. You can always trade it in for a Cybertruck when they are available.

They won’t tell you how much income you can expect from lending shares to the shorts. No guarantees if they will rent your shares or not. I got the same offer and I quizzed them about it out of curiosity, but no solid answers. Anyway, they could not pay me enough to assist the shorts.
We do....i put my pants on one leg at a time while looking at my phone to see $TSLA SP
Friend from vegas who is all in on $TSLA after i recommended him to buy at $700 texted me today. He ran into a dad that used to coach his son's baseball team with him (Ironically, he is a financial advisor ) Told him that he put all his eggs in $TSLA at $700 and the dude said "Congrats, now take those gains and put it in something stable for your future" I told him, "Next time you see him, tell him to take his fiduciary responsibility and stick it where the sun don't shine!!"

I did exactly this. I have been holding Tesla since 2011/12, just took delivery of my Y (first Tesla, but not first EV) a few weeks ago which I intend to trade in when my Cybertruck is ready in 1-2yrs.
