Tesla, TSLA & the Investment World: the Perpetual Investors' Roundtable
- Thread starter AudubonB
- Start date
Capitulation on TSLA in particular likely happened back on the day when it dropped 13% and touched the low 600's. The trading action and volume on that day especially around the height of the selloff very much had the characteristics of capitulation
The Ten Year yield did go up today, but not as high as the 'doom' that was communicated last week (a spike to 1.6) and still below 1.5%.
That spike on Monday has all the markings of a bear rally. But moves like that usually come later in a correction.
Most traders would label this an 'orderly' rotation.
Seeing as I have what most people would call an exorbitant amount of TSLA, I would label it 'sucky'.
But I do not see anything TSLA specific here. This is tech getting taken to the woodshed indiscriminately.
Now if FSD is for real in three months, that is when we will see TSLA specific moves.

Far as I am concerned, they can shenanigan their way up to 970 if they want. Like right now.
Agree this does not look or feel like capitulation. Not even close.
But hey, at least the 5% daily drops mean smaller $ drops! Sorry....
Hi guys,
I bought TSLA at $890 with all my grandparents retirement money.
I thought stock price is supposed to go up?
What am I supposed to say to my Nana?

I was out skiing all day.
Checked my TSLA portfolio before skiing which was green and gave me positive energy.
When I logged back at the end of the day, I didn’t realize I had an open wound bleeding all day. Probably because I was wearing my red coat.

The answers I have seen and thought are:
1) Fund rotation. Funds that hold Tesla have to sell when customers rotate out of the fund/sector. This is a side effect of funds having Tesla stock they have to sell in times like these. This is new to Tesla since S&P and is being used to advantage by people who are buying now. (I am out of money, but will be smarter about this next time I have money).
2) People see stop losses and want to trigger them. It is the usual drive it down with machine selling into a low volume day and buy at the bottom. When the day is over those with stop losses have lost money and no longer own the stock, which may then be trading for more than they bought it for. So a stop loss is actually a guaranteed loss with time of sell determined by someone else. You don’t even control the initiative.
Are there still people who use the “guaranteed loss” methods of trading?
Well... I'm going back to bed, wake me on April 1st...

Great post.
Long term, yes: Elon would totally go for this. Remember 2030 Tesla is supposed to make around 20 million cars, right? Not sure if even that is enough volume though, given the extreme amount of chips being produced to everything from toasters, to washing machines and upward. But if you add all of Elons current and future enterprises, it adds up.
If Grohmann and other in-house tool and process specialst can do first-principles reasoning, and perhaps find in-roads into making chip-mass production less capital intensive, then maybe.
Especially if price/unit is not the most important criteria. Consider an extreme scarcity scenario, a bit like the current one the world is facing. We are slowly finding out, that chips are a bit like water, food and electricity: We just have to have them - come hell or high water.
A theoretical Tesla chip factory could act a bit like a peaker plant: It is dormant a lot of the time. But, if a crises occur, they fire up the plant, run it for a couple of months until the crises is over, and the market no longer will bear the high cost of 'crisis-chips'.
Of course, as other have commented, this only makes sense if it is somehow possible to drastically reduce the capital cost for a chip-factory by a lot - and also the willingness to accept paying a higher price for the chips produced.
And yes, a space faring civilization needs localized chip production.
you are supposed to Say Nana, why are you shorting me?
Well, just remember if you are an orthosurg, keep looking for those ACL injuries out there... maybe put some jagged boulders on the slopes and wait at basecamp with your card.

That seems somewhat ... foolish.
Well at least you have the right moniker: you can check under the Sofie cushions!What is a triple bottom?
On another note, I’m feeling so happy I took advantage of all these OT shifts at my two jobs these last 6 months!!!! I’m emptying out my savings accounts now

I’m not buying until we see 2 consecutive green days.
Tell that lazy bum to go get a job. She probably already had her vaccine FFS.
