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

[TheTalkingMule]

I like to peek at the morning volume around 10:30 to tell what kind of day it'll be. A 6M vs 8M first hour of trading usually indicates if MM's can do whatever they want. Today we're looking at what.......18-19M? Wild stuff.

19.1M shares in the first hour. Yikes!

Shhh.

I guess the big $$ finally bought all the $TSLA they needed....

 

[betstarship]

Agree, but they are ramping. After watching YT reviews, it seems they are making a good product.

The Lightning also appears to be solid. And I think this bodes very well for CT to be an even better truck.

In a general sense, I wouldn't be surprised if the Rivian and Lightning customers use superchargers, tesla wall chargers, and boring tunnels in the future for transport or logistics.

Exit the market? I'm all in on TSLA. ALL IN.

Yes, ALL IN.

Okay let me try this again (i.e. borrowing on margin) (NOT ADVICE):

The first time I borrowed on margin was this March 14th @$776. I got lucky, the SP ran up to $1,110 in only two weeks, and I sold to cover the margin, make $5,500 profit, plus keep 10 "free" shares:

Wish me / us luck again!

If what’s happening this very second doesn’t make you realize the SP has ZERO to do with anything ‘real’, I can’t help you.

2,417,684+16,724,551 = 19,142,235
Too soon to call capitulation day?

So annoying to see these massive banks swoop in and buy shares so cheap. I guess that's what they pay the MM's for.

Now that we've seen how the sausage is made, it doesn't quite taste the same, do it?

Go TESLA! Go Team!

Maybe the SEC could take a look at market making when they get the chance. I know they're busy.

I don't think a $1T company is supposed to move 9% in 50 minutes of trading.

When sentiment changes from more people buying to more people selling - then yeah. It can move to whatever people are willing to pay.

Is anyone else who doesn't use margin considering using some? My stock is in Chase but I have a TD account with a decent approved amount of margin that I used to day trade in. If things get even uglier from here [$500s] I'm considering moving my holdings back over to TD and buying some TSLA on margin. How long do such transfers usually take? I have the $50k buffer in my Roadster deposit if needed. I'd cancel that today if I knew I'd get the funds soon but I hear it's a nightmare that can take over a month. I'm in a very solid financial situation but don't have more equity to put into the market as I used the last of my powder on a LEAP yesterday. I'm cool and calm as I know this is simply an opportunity but I can't help thinking I should consider taking more advantage of said opportunity.

*ahem* my case(s) below. Second time I've ventured into margin territory. Lucky ... but still...

Gamestop halted after being up 30%, AMC halted.

looks like mischief makers will start getting punished badly soon ....

game of chicken, testing how low they can push it, and then exodus will be in droves .......

Value erosion during sell off is always painfull but from fundamental point of view Tesla's competitive position just improved looking at Rivian, Lucid Result. Every Auto manufacturer approach to produce EV will be very similar structure to how they produce ICE vehicle, not only that soon after Tesla introduced Model 3 their approach to manufacturing probably was similar to ICE maker that lead to production hell and Elon had step into re-do lot of manufacturing process this is the reason Elon keep repeating profitable mass production is super hard.

Meme stock trading halted. Looks like people want to squeeze some shorts.

 

[Nocturnal]

I felt pretty defeated yesterday, so this feels about right.

 

[Artful Dodger]

TSLA running at 6.1x macros ATM, and macros are a funny colour.

TSLA up over +10% intraday vs it's low.

The Bickering Index (BI) is off the charts currently.

I prefer the Bickering Signal...

 

[dm28997]

A simile that seems apropos is the Ukrainians defeating the Russian oligarchs is like Tesla defeating the fossil fool cartels which could be backed up by Putin's proxy shorting? I watched Dr. Strange in the Multiverse of Madness. Indeed the madness of power corruption seems obvious.

 

[Singuy]

GmE, rivian and arkk price action suggest Wallstreet bear trapping and now all working together to squeeze the shorts.
