Yeah but short sellers like him provide an invaluable service to the market. They find fraud, make big bets in order to make large profits, and then when they feel like it they let people know. Such saints.

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

If I recall correctly, Gifford said they were 'okay' with the bitcoin purchase, but wanted to put limits on it. For a bull to say that, means others are likely more even more wary. It is just one of a multitude of factors though.
You do understand his position is based on valuation, right? What a weird argument to be making.
His position was based on dumb research. He literally announced that he was shorting Tesla a week BEFORE the S&P inclusion date. I know not everyone can time the market but come on! He very easily could have shorted in the 600+

The guy shorted TSLA before S&P500 inclusion. Really dumb.
Before S&P 500 inclusion but AFTER the S&P 500 inclusion announcement. I don't know if the guy even knows how to use a calculator.
Yes, I studied it again and now see that the big piece in the foreground could be another wheel housing from the skateboard. Thanks to folks who inspired me to take another look.
I tried to edit my post, but the editing time is expired.
Is it? All I've heard him say are things like "it went up a lot so it must be over valued".
If Burry has any valuation knowledge, he's going to get out before Q3 P/D numbers and Q3 earnings. I can't possibly believe he's that dumb as to not understand what's going to happen to Tesla P/E after Q3/Q4 earnings.

That was the extent of his technical analysis when he tweeted about his position. If goes up, then must come down? I dont know, I have always preferred the infinite upside long term trade. I couldnt imagine being long short in a position.
Well not really. People are more likely to buy today after a 30% dip than at ATH. So if all things being equal, there's less headwind at current pricing. As what Rob puts it, the 800s would be considered new "price discovery".
6 months closer for some, to get to long term capital gains.

I don't see six months wasted at all! I see six months in which the value of my investment has appreciated greatly.

Not only that, the market is not as "frothy" as it was 6 months ago. And yet the market value is the same. That's a win in my book. We have been steadily appreciating the entire time.
Don't keep your eyes on the share price, keep them on the execution of the company.

Why Q3? Why not Q2? I expect this to be another record quarter, and while Q3 will be even better with more S and X, the P/E ratio should already improve markedly early July. Or am I mistaken?
that not correct.
US regulatory requirements are that fully paid shares must be segregated from shares bought using broker
margin. they are a handled different internally at broker and externally at dtcc in the omnibus account.
if they are segged, they can’t be used for broker activity, like pledging, or securities lending.
however, you can opt into a fully paid securities lending program in which they can use your segged shares to lend. in this case the broker usually splits the accrued interest with you, the customer, to incentivize the opt in, and increase their “available” pool of lending to the street. as securities lending is among the main drivers (along with commissions) of broker revenue.
in the prior instance (shares paid for with margin) the broker technically owns the shares and can do lend them and keep the accrued interest.
You didn't see Mickey Mouse's tweet about accepting Bitcoin at Magic Mountain?? Disney tanked shortly thereafter.
