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

[henchman24]

800 here we come?

800 will likely be heavily protected as it gets closer to the area where we could see mid to late March all over again.

That said, I've said for a while that when Tesla goes, it will gamma squeeze.

 

[Featsbeyond50]

I highly doubt that. I think its much more likely that Elon walked into the HR office in Fremont, and there was nobody there. He had to find the janitor to find out that everyone now "works from home". Well, used to...

I wish we could choose multiple options for our "likes". I find this post to be both informative and funny and, for what it's worth, I think you're right (though maybe not specifically the HR office).

 

[Featsbeyond50]

Well Elon screwed me over again. We just got an email saying that they are expecting us to go back into the office . Elon please pump the stock so I don't have to go back lol.

This morning I had the heaviest traffic I've seen since the start of the pandemic. Coincidence?

I think the 200 day will be the toughest resistance.

We often see upward gallops like this. I'm willing to say $800 will stop it in its tracks. I've seen it stop at mile markers like that and take a break for the rest of the day. No reason to say it won't keep climbing tomorrow.

Manufacturing news out of China is good
Monthly sales news for May (for Tesla and non-Tesla) is good for Tesla
Chevy Bolt massive price drop makes no sense, particularly with all the press coverage doing damage control, and the only explanation is, it isn't selling, they need to move the units - this plays into the "competition is coming" fallacy

Looks like it has already seen $800 in the distance and got scared

First I'd have to believe this is a rally...

I have been exercising Leaps purchased in Q1 of 2020. Those shares are coming from somewhere. I suspect I am not the only one.

I want to complete this to be able to vote the shares so exercising a little early.

 

[Usain]

Yea, not gonna agree that Tesla is on the same level as legacies there. You're ignoring the wealth of info Tesla directly shares, battery day anyone? Dealing with legacies is a black hole. Hell Ford still cannot remove the power throttling on the Ford Mach-E GT as much as their owners demand it. They don't even have an explanation for it lmao.

That's probably true. Tesla does share a little more than the others. Tesla is very proud of their engineering, and rightfully so.

Um… looking good so far. Perfect timing too.

What a cool day. TSLA earnings put to work. Time to Rock and Roll!

Norway are in good spot there. I just wonder when they will stop producing oil and apologise to the rest of the world!!!

Agreed... that is probably a week or two out (likely depends on next Friday's numbers), but a filing showing the details of the split could also trigger a run to it.

Well +25% since Mai 24th starts to be pretty significant

Even with this I'm not convinced. BYD is the only other maker with in house battery production. If they could sell EVs at scale and at a profit, why aren't they rapidly expanding?

They are! "The auto giant has signaled that it will conservatively sell 1.5 million new energy vehicles in 2022, or up to 2 million if supply issues ease. That's up from 2021's NEV sales of 593,745."

NEV is misleading though as it includes plug in hybrids.

Oil prices are set globally. Very little difference.

Well, no. Oil prices sourced from different locations have different prices since the oil itself is different (high sulfur, sweet, etc). And I meant price in the market - so you have to take into account shipping and/or pipeline access. People see a headline number which is usually Brent crude, but there are prices for all others, and as I said, what matters to consumers is price in the market itself.

It was only in 2015 that Congress allowed the US to export crude. The current administration is seriously thinking of putting that ban back in place. This will bifrucate the oil market even more and make US oil cheaper for US consumers, while increasing European oil costs.
