Which will have a bigger effect on the stock price tomorrow: Twitter overhang or share buyback overhang?I recall yesterday’s discussion about whether Elon was done selling. Those of you who were convinced he was, are you still convinced?
I was not convinced then, and I’m even less convinced now.
It’s clear to me this is going to remain a lingering anchor on TSLA until Elon confirms, one way or another.

Thanks for that link. But more like the growth (or decline) for 2022 (Q1 thru Q3) for legacy Autos compared to Tesla is the real story that needs to be told to shut these guys. That site isn't much helpful in that.
The numbers quoted there doesn't make sense to me. That site quotes Tesla revenue for the last 4 quarters ending Q2, 2022 with $10.91B. But the numbers we got today for Q3 alone is $21.45B. What am I missing?

I wish Tesla would cancel the Roadster. It's an unproductive use of resources, and it reinforces the image of Teslas as vehicles for the elite. (I was glad to learn yesterday that Tesla is again working on a smaller, cheaper vehicle.)BMW CEO says banning gas vehicles would run the risk of poor people not having access to affordable cars like BMWs...
BMW chief warns against setting gas-powered phase-out date
Setting a date to phase out gas-powered vehicles could remove "cheap cars" from the market, putting ownership out of reach for many, and be politically dangerous, the board chair of German automaker BMW Oliver Zipse said on Wednesday.www.reuters.com
Believe it!
Why not have vehicles in all segments?I wish Tesla would cancel the Roadster. It's an unproductive use of resources, and it reinforces the image of Teslas as vehicles for the elite. (I was glad to learn yesterday that Tesla is again working on a smaller, cheaper vehicle.)
I have similar concern about the Celestiq, but it's not quite as bad in this respect because GM also talks about moderately priced Chevrolet EV's, and Cadillacs aren't supposed to be meant for the proles.
If they were doing 1k/ week and tripled production they’d be at about 13.5 GWH which would be pretty awesome.i thought he said they were doing 1k/wk a quarter ago (or was that kato rd?)
I wish Tesla would cancel the Roadster.
Priceless commentary...this needs to be a meme!Tesla : we'll grow 50% as far as we can see, industry leading margins, we'll do a big stock buyback, lowering costs, record cash pile and no significant debt
Wall St : pffft. SELL!
Based off the call comments and continued reliance on the 2170s, I think 4680 progress is within the lower bounds of what they considered possible outcomes on battery day... I do suspect that they are much slower than they had optimistically hoped. I think they are making progress and solving challenge after challenge, but it's slow going, especially for Elon. Nonetheless, they aren't showing their disappointment in not hitting the best-case scenario because it's within the bounds of reality. Tesla sets crazy ambitious targets that when missed, might feel disappointing...until you realize no one else could have come close to performing what Tesla did. Converting the impossible into late.Most important part of the call
Drew at 1:02:40. "The are challenges ahead that we still have not surpassed, no doubt"
He was answering about 4680 and Semi. Seems like 4680 progress is way overhyped yet again.
Twice the market cap of Saudi Aramco, excluding Optimus: 7.86T x 2 = 15.72T.
(Of course, Tesla would likely be worth thousands of, or more, times the value of Saudi Aramco in a post-Oil global economy.)
I've been saying this for a long time now. We need the Model QTesla needs to come out with a cheaper vehicle. The market for $60,000+ cars is only so large; it's insane that we already sold more vehicles than Corolla globally in September. Can Cybertruck psuh 50% growth YoY? Maybe temporarily. But for mass adoption of electric vehicles globally it's going to require a cheap car, a small compact car that fits international roads better, and a lot of batteries.
Sidenote: ABML (led by ex-Tesla engineer and with a bunch of Nevada Gigafactory OGs now hired) just won a $57 million grant today. People talk about Redwood all the time but what ABML is doing with hydrometallurgical processes for both extraction and recycling is novel and impactful.

M3 is still way too big for most people in many parts of the world, and even with some cost-savings/margin squeeze, we're looking at, what, back to the $35k range? That's too much, needs to be sub $20k - 4680 battery price-reductions and manufacturing efficiency will make such a car feasible while maintaining high marginsThe 3/Y can be made much cheaper with a litany of slight modifications. Also, Tesla doesn't need to make 30%+ margins. If hypothetically they could sell 4x the volume with 20% margins by cutting the price by $7k, then of course they will do that. 3s and Ys could probably sell 10M per year combined if ASP drops to like $45k.
