Tesla, TSLA & the Investment World: the Perpetual Investors' Roundtable
- Thread starter AudubonB
- Start date
Listen, we all know about your Qualcomm and Microsoft boomer investing glory, but it's time to let us borderline GenX/Millenial have the spotlight.
I bought Lucid stock pre-merger (formerly CCIV) and 5x'd it in 3 weeks. Sold it exactly the day before it crashed.
Moral of my story: When a stock is worth 100 billion before even producing a single vehicle, sell it.
It was the end of the world! Until January 1, 2000 when it wasn't...
We did have a nice New Year's that year in front of the fireplace though... fond memories...

There are a lot of companies that will have wildly profitable returns that can't pass my criteria for having a very low probability of greater than 50% loss. It's very hard to identify that when it depends upon largely unknowable future events which is why "going all in", more than 50%, should probably be a very rare thing to not be considered a desperation move.
Hindsight is 20/20.
Blast from the past (2021):
Tesla China’s August numbers are in, and they show that Gigafactory Shanghai is hitting its stride as the company’s primary vehicle export hub. As per data released by the Chinese Passenger Car Association (CPCA) on Wednesday, Tesla exported 31,379 vehicles in August from Gigafactory Shanghai. Together with domestic sales of 12,885, Tesla China effectively sold a total of 44,264 vehicles in August 2021, an increase of 34% month-over-month.
Don't worry, it won't matter. Twice now it's tried to break through 275 and it immediately gets smacked down by sell orders. There's intent to make sure it doesn't turn green today
Can you guys tell me if this maps/chart is accurate? Some fossil head sent this to me with a comment, "You can clearly see a pattern of coastal elite vs Americana".
I don't think this chart is accurate. This is not ownership density (Teslas/per 1000 citizens), but total Model 3s in a state. I remember seeing another table that had FL & Texas as No. 2 & 3 close to each other.

I want the younger generations to have all the success they can muster and, if I can help out, even in a small way, that's good.
But what I see is disheartening. What is so difficult about a long-term focus? Even as a 30 year-old I could see that was the best path but all I see today is a focus on the day to day ticker and whether we are in a recession, about to enter a recession, coming out of a recession or other unknowable things like up down or sideways, all of it noise to the bigger picture, the picture that can make you wealthy, not in 3 months, not in one year but over a multi-decade period with a steady and thoughtful hand. It's called 'investing'. Because nobody knows the micro-movements of the economy in advance. Whatever happened to investing and not giving a flying F*** about market spasms and financial media "wisdom". That's not how fortunes are made, worrying about unknowable things.
Problem: I don't control the narrative and those who do, have the upper hand.
Solution: Don't let them control the narrative. Ignore them.
Oh, I thought that was her hat. It fits.I don't think they could have staged that picture any better with the Capital in the background.

Not only is it not adjusted for population density, the Model 3 SR+ came out in late March 2019. So at that point, there were only more expensive LR variants and a handful of LEMRs.

I see no use for this aspect of Tesla numbers in each state. Noone is going to redistrict The House of Representatives using it. It provides nothing usable in terms of acceptance or density.
As to your "friend/idiot", the movement(density) of the population of the USA towards seashores would predict such a graph. Another aspect is the poorer a state the less likely it heavily-populated as well as those poor consumers ain't able to buy a tesla.
There is some mixup in the RGB table of my stock ticker graph, the second component has bypassed the first, which is not the method of operation for this week
