Because it’s not publicly traded?
Considering the EV bill applies to PHEVs then it's really just corporate welfare for legacy auto. Our system is hopelessly corrupt.
During July 28 to August 2, TSLA popped upward well above its 200-day SMA (simple moving average) amid increased trading volume. However, so far in this annual vacation month, the share price has been channeled into a narrowing pennant as volume withered to a pathetically thin level today. The usual resolution of such a pennant is a resumption of the previous trend (in this case upward). Perhaps some news is needed to give it a kick.
I think you will be greeted with a bunch of surprised faces if you tried telling Australians & New Zealanders that they are considered part of “Greater China”. As a comparison, Australia/NZ is further away from China than the USA is from Europe. I have never heard any other company describe countries in the Southern Hemisphere as being part of “greater China“. Open to being corrected, but most global companies classify Australia & NZ as Oceania/Australasia or “APAC” (Asia-Pacific) or “ROW” (Rest of Wold) for reporting purposes, and APAC/ROW usually excludes China (Which is normally broken out into its own geographic segment as ‘Greater China“ which includes Mainland China, HK, Macau & Taiwan sales)
I think one needs to consider the political landscape at the time that Shanghai factory was announced - there was a US administration incredibly hostile to China trade, and wanted to boost US manufacturing by any means possible, especially in cars. If there was a possibility that a new China Tesla factory would end up being the main tesla export hub (replacing USA factory as export hub) that would not have sat well with the administration and attempted punitive actions wouldn’t have been out of the realm of possibility at the time, not to mention excessive negative bad mouthing by POTUS which would impact the purchasing decisions of almost half the US population. I can see why Tesla wouldn’t have wanted to magnify that option at the time.

Yeah, sure, because Tesla was gonna entrust their bty supply for their largest project ever to their direct EV competitor in China.
P.S. Have bridge in Brooklyn, slightly used, good price for the rite buyer.

Thank you for your compassion and likely future Model 2/Q sale. 1000 Internet points to you. Not everyone has the means to buy a Tesla, or for that matter, even an EV. We need more people to experience and drive EVs period! Every mile driven on electricity is important, PHEV, old Leaf, or Plaid+. Given the charging profile, I will guess that this was an older 2010-2016 Leaf (24 KWh) that was purchased used for less than $10,000, maybe even $5000, and the person was very new to the vehicle. They probably actually believed the used car salesman who said it had a 100 mi range (never did new, and certainly doesn’t now). FWIW, 12 miles on my 2011 Leaf is actually about 25-30% SOC and will easily travel 20-30 mi in town. I still have my ReddyLeaf and love it for in-town driving, even though it might get 50 mi on a good day. To return this to Tesla financials: I started with the 2011 Leaf and eventually bought a new 2015 S70D. Now, after investing in TSLA, I will return some of the profits directly to Tesla by purchasing a few Model Y’s for family members and a MS Plaid for myself.
I just figured out this is the old one and different than the Clean Energy Act. Should we assume they are going to try to apply the same price limit when Clean Energy gets pushed through?
Try to be serious. Tesla's market share is growing 50-100% per year, because their market is the car market.

Are you thinking to change your undelivered Y for a Plaid now?

Yup. Same way the Apple car was going to be built by Hyundai-KIA in the USA... /s
CNBC Now on Twitter: "BREAKING: Apple is close to finalizing a deal with Hyundai-Kia to manufacture an Apple branded autonomous electric vehicle at the Kia assembly plant in West Point, Georgia - sources https://t.co/q5e7wpAUxf https://t.co/bC9hBae3tK" / Twitter
Now about that bridge in Brooklyn...
Cheers!

Haha no! An AWD Model Y has 380 horse and does 0-60 in about 5.6 sec. It took me nearly 60 yrs to do 0-60.
But there is the "Acceleration Boost" OTA upgrade which unleases the beast with 450 ponies.
Cheers!
Over the past two weeks, I've found this forum to be the most rational place to discuss anything investing.
...I don't know what that means, but I wanted to share.

...the tunneling system we need worldwide? Yes, agree. It's great Texas is giving Elon Musk and team the ability to actually make a reality what he thinks is the right approach. Just wish other states were just as quick to adopt.
It's just two cities and nothing to do with the state of TX.. Neither was first mover like LV, nor where they second mover like the cities in Flordia. Nor are they really 3rd like Chicago. SO...
yes it is interesting but barely.
