Only if you want no more innovation from Tesla.
Maybe. But like Apple without Jobs, maybe there comes a time where a company can thrive with less emphasis on innovation and more on consolidation and long term profitability.

OK. So it sounds to me like we are indeed nearing the end of Foundation Series. I'd say it's had a good run and continued for much longer than I expected.
I may be misunderstaning this comment, so forgive me if I am. But if you are alluding to the Delaware court's reasoning for nullifying Elon's compensation package, i.e. that shareholders weren't aware of the cozy relationship Elon had with the board, it is difficult for me to really believe that the majority of investors weren't well aware of that coziness. I sure was, and I am one of the most unsophisticated investors on this forum. Generally a court relies on evidence and testimony to come to their conclusions. In this case, was there tesitmony from investors that they were unaware of the reality of the situation? I genuinely don't know the answer to that question.
“Put simply, neither the Compensation Committee nor the Board acted in the best interests of the Company when negotiating Musk’s compensation plan. In fact, there is barely any evidence of negotiations at all. Rather than negotiate against Musk with the mindset of a third party, the Compensation Committee worked alongside him, almost as an advisory body.”
If EV tax credits go away we might see a demand pull forward for Q3 and Q4. ( I wish more people start thinking this way ...)
By the time EV tax credits go away, Tesla needs to have the MQ/2 25K car ready.
A lot of folks who buy 50K + cars might be in tax bracket in which they don't qualify for the credits anyway. Better interest rates will negate the EV credits going away.
If EV credits go away it will hurt the hybrids more than Tesla (I think).

It looks like Tesla is sending out FS invites to CT orders from as late as November 2023. That means we could see non-FS soon, which will have a higher conversion rate.
My buddy just got an offer last week. He placed his in late 2021 (whenever FSD went from $7k to $8k - I can't keep track of the FSD price changes lol).
So they must really be rolling through the reservation list now and not getting a lot of takers on the FS.
I'd be surprised if you don't get the email before the FS ends.If true, then it was a good run. I just don't know why they would skip over all the people that made reservations years before November 2023, like me. Granted, if offered the FS, I would decline as its way more than I am willing to spend.
and Schwab is experiencing "technical issues" so I can't catch this falling knife...
IMHO- FUD is at Maximum intensity and it is time to buy.
I can picture the SP falling if they both pass. So many institutional want it to fail and may sell.I'd be tentative about buying now. If the vote fails on Thursday then we are likely going down even further from here on Friday and into next week.
Then again, if you plan to hold for years then the post vote dip probably won't matter much.
I'd have to say we are definitely on the right track with 1/2 of 2024 already completedI’m just planning on this entire year to be crap.
They seem to be getting a lot more takers than I ever would have thought considering its an additional $20,000 premium over a price that is already higher than originally announced. Did your buddy pass on the FS?
I think at $80k ($72.5k after EV rebate), they will move a ton more and once fully ramped I wouldn't be surprised the price eventually goes down to aroune $70k before rebates. If that happens, I would be all over it, but who knows.![]()
I am all about holding for distant horizons. I think for myself when others try to manipulate me with fear. Short term you may be correct. In the long term, all this bull manure becomes fertilizer. There is no other company as diversified and innovative as Tesla. No worries here.I'd be tentative about buying now. If the vote fails on Thursday then we are likely going down even further from here on Friday and into next week.
Then again, if you plan to hold for years then the post vote dip probably won't matter much.
If the institutions held after voting against it in 2018, why would that be different now? These funds have a time horizon waaaaay beyond retail investors.I can picture the SP falling if they both pass. So many institutional want it to fail and may sell.
Another case of down on good news, down on bad news. I’m just planning on this entire year to be crap.

Fleet responses cost Waymo money. Fleet responses make it hard to scale.
There is reason to believe that Tesla's end-to-end solution will make fleet responses very rare and allow Tesla to scale quickly.
