As is always the case with Germany, it is very difficult to disentangle bureaucratic incompetence from malice. Just ask the Ukrainians still waiting for the tanks promised six months ago....

New Ford Mustang Revealed in Detroit Is Sticking With Gas Engine
In an era of electric vehicles, Ford isn’t ready to abandon the loud, powerful engines that have long been critical to the sports car’s appeal.

Tesla won't quit trying to expand in Germany, but I really wouldn't mind if they put it on the shelf and went elsewhere.

I don't really care about the 300 and 420 memes.
I'm just watching market cap. My TSLA meme targets are
* 1T (round number)
* 1.3T (AMZN and GOOG)
* 1.5T (round number)
* 1.8T (MSFT)
* 2T (round number)
* 2.5T (AAPL)
* 3T (round number)

4T is mine... I think Tesla becomes the world's first 4T company.
But not a Detroit automaker. Duggan is the mayor of Detroit. A town where, in the 80's, two autoworkers beat a man of Chinese descent to death with a baseball bat for looking a little too Japanese for their liking. And they walked out of court w something like a $500 fine./cloudfront-us-east-2.images.arcpublishing.com/reuters/QZAUFJBSJVNKPAULYWR455JYEA.jpg)

The bear market is officially over.
You do not need to worry about the SP...just keep the machine running 24/7 and they will all be achieved.

I can’t believe that Amazon is not only worth more than Tesla, but somehow worth almost as much as Google. It’s honestly absurd. Amazon is easily the most overvalued mega-cap.
KIRO Newsradio Headlines: Bellevue to be testing ground for self-driving cars
The company said it chose the region because the driving environment was similar in certain respects to other western U.S. cities.

Waymo is coming to my town!
At this point, I think it’s an actual risk for Tesla to keep investing in Germany. They need to diversify to at least one other country to put constant pressure on the German government. To me at least, the German officials have shown time and time again that they can’t be relied on.
I little more info on Ford's dealership ultimatum:

A “Gigafactory Prague” would have probably already ramped to 500k by now.

Maybe in a year or so, Giga Kyiv. What a statement THAT would be.
current market cap / current price = number of shares
desired market cap / number of shares = price to hit that market cap
eg using rounded numbers for current values : 948,000,000,000 / 302 = 3,100,000,000
so for a 4T market cap, you'd need a price of about 4,000,000,000,000 / 3,100,000,000 = $1290/share
The same guy that over a year ago called the highest inflation since the Carter years "transitory"? That put off raising the fed rates for a year after it was obvious to everyone in their weekly grocery shopping that we had a serious inflation problem? That ignored rising fuel costs for a year? That is denying that we have been in a recession for months? I don't find Powell (or Yellen for that matter) to have significant credibility. They seem more like mouthpieces for the administration's policies, good or bad, than honestly making an effort to do their jobs within their actual areas of responsibility.
That had occurred to me. Obviously Musk and as a result Tesla are extremely well liked and would get all the support they could want. Risk of further Russian aggression might be an issue of course. Money will surely flow from the EU and US to help rebuild Ukraine as well.
As a shareholder, I might be ok with this risk as it feels like a good thing to do.
