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

[woodisgood]

You guys are assuming this dip is mostly due to the crash. Cleantech is continuing to get absolutely thrashed this morning. In light of that, the bounce off ~695 is quite encouraging.

i think it's silly to pretend it's not. much of the news media in general, as well as literally every technology and automobile website are featuring a sensationalistic headline about it.

i'm glad a recovery seems to be underway, though.

 

[BornToFly]

I realized that I have made a lot of money on TSLA because my reaction to dips is not normal. Most investors panic and sell. I get mad and buy more....

 

[elasalle]

Congrats to folks with dry powder who took FSD FUD dip advantage today

 

[juanmedina]

I got 4 shares and sold some put credit spread for Friday.

That wouldn't be enough on it's own to push TSLA down like this on the Monday before earnings. This is MM's leveraging the situation combined with algo's picking up the stories and linking it to SP movements. All gonna unwind eventually.

That would have been a fun little morning dip if options pricing had moved down even somewhat rationally. I got literally zero amazing bargains with SP sitting at $697 other than a few $800c for this Friday to average me down. Added some 4/30 $800c but not at what I would consider a fair price.

Great morning to buy shares headed into earnings. More proof maybe we're holding on too tight(Cougar Syndrome) and acting way too earning on these SP trigger events. I see the 1Q P&D and rush to lever up, coulda just as easily waited til today.

Now have less than zero powder. All dry was gone a week ago, I've now blasted off my moist powder as well. Maybe I'll go get some actual work done today.

Volume is up - 22M shares traded so far, maybe hitting the stop losses this morning at $700 was the goal.

Not the worst thing in the world to clear them all out too. Now we can go on the march northward unimpeded.

I don't have the same kind of couches y'all have. However I do have a wife who's happy to let me invest all my hard earned money in TSLA, but has been a lot more resistant at investing her own money into TSLA. Managed to shake her down for 35 more shares at $697 this morning.

I’m not saying there wasn’t an attempt to use the crash to amplify a macro drop. Just not convinced it would have had much of an effect without the continued sell-off in cleantech. And perhaps vice versa as well.

 

[canoemore]

Yeah, I'd say TSLA is holding up pretty well considering the news and the macro trajectory this morning.

So good to know that your therapy sessions together have been working.

Because ap will not enable without a seat belt, so 5his person cannot enable ap and then jumped into another chair.

Seat belt could be locked behind you.

I looked in a couch at Fidelity and found a little something buried in it. There was a 401K tag on that couch, so I have to Roll the find over into another Fidelity couch before I can buy TSLA with it.

Why is it that I can execute an ETF from the bank to Fidelity and the funds are available to use immediately (while the transaction completes a few days later), but, when moving between two Fidelity accounts it takes days for the funds to be made available for trade? Mysteries of the universe I suppose.

Guess I missed that tasty dip this morning, but will have chips ready to dip again if someone sets out another bowl later this week.

Seat belt could be locked behind you.

It would still be buckled then. Very easy to verify visually as well with logs.

 

[woodisgood]

I looked under the couch cushions, found my children (how do they fit into such small spaces?), and well, you know the rest.

 

[Nocturnal]

I went ahead and put my couch cushions into a Jack LeLane Juicer and got another 10 shares.

AP shuts off if you unbuckle. Person would need to buckle it, get in, drive, turn on AP, climb into back, all before a fast car gets to the end of a 1/4 mile street.

And then die from stupidity.

How many shares did you get for them?

Right I'm just pointing out that you could avoid unbuckling by starting out with it buckled behind you. It's all highly unlikely of course.
