That’s institutional distribution, big money exiting and selling to smaller funds and retail investors. Too much risk for institutions. Refusal to raise capital, panicky decisions like opening/closing/opening stores, completely missing estimates with a $700m loss without fair warning (that’s a huge huge loss), Q2 not profitable, chance of another SEC showdown (even if Elon behaves, they will probably try to get him)
You can't fix that. Especially if they are completely bogus allegations. No amount of advertising or whatever is going to combat that. The media is happy to eat up this stuff. They are essentially complaints about S and X since Model 3 wasn't even in sale in China until this year.
I implore you to use the ignore button. I have well over 100 posters on ignore and still have trouble keeping up, but it makes it more bearable and I don't miss out from those I consider to add value to the TSLA discussion. Oh yah, and I usually just log on once per day and read only those posts with >5 tags (like and the sort).
MODS, may I suggest to limit quantity of posts by any specific poster to no more than 1/2 dozen per day. If they can't say what they need to say in half a dozen posts in one day, then another half dozen isn't going to help them.
That part is absolutely true. Elon has made it very clear that he has no respect for the SEC and has continued to taunt them publicly. I think virtually all of the vocal bullish institutional investors like Baron, Bailie, and ARK have publicly indicated they would very much like him to stop it. They absolutely do not support that behavior. Bullish Munster was even more critical about it. It needs to stop. Having some fun on twitter with jokes and things is one thing, but he needs to put the public SEC taunting behind him. Institutional investors do not like it.
We might, so long as the specifications included in the California application have little to do with teh final product. The rate base structure is very old fashioned and shows negative Tesla bias, at that, in risk category classification. The single innovation was in AP inclusion with categories copied of the ancient autonomy classifications. Even the zip code risk categories are extremely dated and are certainly indicative of generic ice perspective....
I'm super excited about Tesla Insurance, not primarily because of the effects on Tesla's finances and SP (it will take years to take off), but because this is the first time since PayPal that Elon is launching a major high-tech financial product.
If the past is predictive, we might see something special - maybe not in the offering itself (which might look deceptively conservative, like a Model S), but under the hood.
Dude...I've been in the stock market forever and believe me when I tell you its a tricksy ****ing beast and absolutely anything is possible. If you don't have a complete understanding that you can lose 100% of your investment you shouldn't be here.
The other way around could also happen. Tesla achieves Level 5 and all other FSD efforts become penny stocks.
You can always just say off the 'Investment forum" which tends to have the most controversy(which is kind of why we're here)
