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

[StealthP3D]

* PA is a gas state

Pennsylvania is the third largest coal producer in the US and coal is the second largest energy generation source after natural gas which has grown dramatically with low prices brought on by fracking.

So I imagine a lot of people there would love a car that could run, at least partially, on locally sourced coal!

Where does CNBC get these newscasters?

She actually said,

"Well, we'll see if he (Elon) follows through with it (moving to Texas). He was of course the first major businessperson to pit states against each other to get them to compete for his business."

What? How could she say that? She is a business (CNBC) reporter? Yeah, no other businessperson had ever done that...

She’s like 19 years old. She has no life experience.

Depends on your age and how many shares that represents.

IMO, if selling 1/3 would be enough for retirement, it's worth considering.

However, keep in mind there is every reason to believe the next 5-10 years are primed to be a great run for TSLA.

Hold the shares and finance the lifestyle. Sell shares as needed for cash. Can’t get those shares back once they’re gone. You certainly can’t have mine...I’ll need them for the next 10-15 years minimum

When I bought into Tesla it was like a 4bn mkt cap so I’m up x 100 on initial investment, do people really think the shares can still rise x 10 !!?? 6 trillion mkt cap ?????

In a word: YES

Yes, and hope your initial investment was large. Finance the car, watch the shares grow in value. Enjoy the car.

Is this click bait? Cmon.

$6 trill just based on what’s going right, right now. Same margins as apple, plus disrupting the entire energy market, plus disrupting the entire automotive market. +SAAS, +FSD.

They’re worth 1/2 $trill valued basically on autos alone and only making 1/2 mill cars per year. That will 40x by 2030. Do the math man.

I originally invested about the same time ($3B market cap)

do people really think the shares can still rise x 10 !!?? 6 trillion mkt cap ?????

Yes. 50% annual growth, plus FSD, create the potential to reach that level in the next 5-10 years.

Microsoft is up 211,000% vs IPO. Most people here feel that tesla is disrupting more market value than did Microsoft. So, I’d hold the shares if I were you. And be grateful you came here for advice before selling...

Is it helpful to give him an audience?

He only gets paid by his customers: car dealerships

For YouTube to pay him even a miniscule amount, he needs to have 1000 subscribers, and for his videos to be viewed for over 4000 hours (not visits, but hours) in a year. Check his list of quite brief videos. The numbers of visits are laughable. Our TMC visits will not make a mountain out of his molehill.

However, our TMC viewing does educate us about the concerns of dealerships and their advisers. It also gives us a few weekend chuckles.

Hopefully this question is in the right thread, but I'd love some opinions regarding this;

I will have 30k to play with soon. Should I;

1. Pay off my Tesla for which I still have 27k financed and invest new money into TSLA

or

2. Put 30k into TSLA despite the higher stock price and wait it out? I'm TSLA long all the way.

Read the article, but seems like this could be a fight to keep the factory open during time.

Telsa factory workers declared “Essential” a few weeks ago. I would assume this “lock-down” will not effect the factory.

Do you accept Nikola?

(Don’t know if they can make it up on your mountain)

But we do know they can make it down!

Depends on your income. If you can afford the payments and your lifestyle; it’s a no brainer. 2.5-4% apr for the car financing...tesla is growing at 50% yoy.

It’s front running to avoid getting embarrassed by Musk.

Think Musk cares what Newsom or Alameda thinks?

We don’t have any right to judge anyone if they are essential when it comes to working and providing.

Play, just pay off the loan. Invest for long run - do it. My feeling is that TSLA's valued at least a couple of years ahead of itself, so if you need the money earlier - plan accordingly

I wonder if some Big Dawg knows something?

Awesome history of Tesla. Worth watching.

 

[lafrisbee]

I think it would be nice if from here on out we went up in roughly $100/share on a weekly basis. It makes it so easy to figure out the worth of TSLA stock in my portfolio. Don't you agree.

Can we sign a petition or something to mandate stock trading 7 days a week? The weekend feels eternal already and it's only Friday night....
