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

Thestockchannel. He said this I think 3 days ago.Who is "they"? The price hit $546.98 so $547 didn't tecnnically hold. But the stock then went back up a bit.
This is what I am doing out of boredom seeing the same old BS. Since I have super fast internet with Elons Satellite system working so well I canceled my ATT for home internet. I sold most of our T and with the cash to buy more TSLA.
Trading on people's fear and FUD is not in my DNA or RNA for that matter.

No, you definitely need sub-millimeter accuracy.
For panels, if you've got 1mm tolerance in your pieces and you need at least 1mm of separation, you'll end up with a 1-5mm gap. If your tolerance is 2mm this increases to 1-9mm!.
And over multiple pieces of the car frame those tolerances compound...
You either need maximum accuracy, or take measures to clean-up/mitigate the effect of these variances.
(Like it's apparently done by some german manufacturers, who laser scan the assembled frame before drilling the door attachement points and adjust their placement to center the door within this specific frame.)
If you achieve perfect assembly with zero tolerances consistently, all those QA and modification steps are obsolete. Even parts could get simpler&cheaper if they dont require any adjustment capabilities. (Hinges, adjustable bumpers, thinner gaskets)
With the basic car frame consisting of a handful of pieces (2 castings, battery and maybe front&rear crash structures) Tesla makes a big step towards this goal.

Because they didn't sell. You may have heard this saying before: "It's not a loss until you sell".
Why would you think this is any different? An impairment charge is recorded on the Balance Sheet, not the Income Statement.
I don't think this is true... Crypto is an indefinite life intangible asset according to US GAAP. Which means there is an impairment test, and any loss would have to be recognized on the GAAP income statement. Any gain is not income until it is sold.

This is not correct.
What Tesla actually said they'd do regarding gains or losses when not sold:
Teslas own 10k said:
So yes, they will recognize it on the income statement if there's a crypto loss.

I've already pointed out that a low share price is just as likely to benefit employees as a high share price. Please pay attention to the discussion.
Employees profit on stock options based on the difference between the share price when it is granted and when it vests. If the price is too high when it's granted then it can expire worthless. This dip is actually GREAT news for every employee that will have options granted during the dip.
So don't go about crying that the employees need a high stock price.
Wow. Could Ford be compatible with Superchargers? Now wouldn’t that be something? I did think Ford figured out their EV tech kinda quickly considering they had very little experience with it before this F150. So maybe Tesla is supplying even more tech? Like motors? I guess we’ll have to wait until tonight...
TSLA -4% seems to be relatively stable in face of the total crypto -40% collapse from etherium and doge.
I thought the markets had borderline personality disorder, however I think they behave more like a paranoid schizophrenic that enter a deep depression.

Let me expound upon this discussion of “low” and “high” stock prices from the perspective not of an employee, but of an outside investor, as follows:
I own a gazillion shares I bought when the price was a bazillionth of what it is now. I hold these shares because it is apparent to me that as time marches on, the share price will continue to rise at a risk-weighted amount greater than that of alternative investments.
However, I have just come into a slug of “new” cash (sold some real estate). ===>It is in my immediate, short-term best interest that the price of TSLA be below what it was yesterday or last week and so forth<==== so that I more profitably can invest these proceeds into Tesla.
The same logic applies equally accurately to employee-shareholders.

BUY BUY BUY. (not advice).
I expect this will stabilize bitcoin, but cause some (more) volatility in the stock.
I felt the same way wrt Ford's "rapid" understanding of battery chemistry, BMS and other considerations in order to get a purported 300 miles of range with a battery around 100KWH. Audi and Jaguar were only able to get 200 mi, with considerable investment of time, and money in roughly the same battery capacity.
I would LOVE more volatility in TSLA .. if i only had more margin & couches -.-
I don't like that Tesla is now being considered a crypto related stock.
