But that's contingent on fixed production rate which hopefully will be going up with GF3 and 7K run rate at Fremont
The benefit will outweigh the cost. Many new GFs coming on line from competitors. Battery production will be increasing dramatically in the coming years. What happens if there is shortage or bidding wars over certain raw materials? Tesla needs to guarantee they have all the ingredients they need.Unless one is just dabbling, mining, just like Insurance, requires and ties up significant capital resources (and human talent that Tesla would have to recruit). How will that capital be acquired? Vertical integration is wonderful-- until the economy contracts. Tesla needs to focus on its core competencies.
OT :
BTW, getting back to the original point, EVs are not yet more convenient than ICE. Mainly because of charging - once high speed charging gets ubiquitous and range > 3 hours of high way driving - other things like convenience of home charging vs going to the gas station every week will kill ICE.
Yeah he's out there. Also thinks dinosaurs never existed. He works at a car dealership. fancy thatBelieve me, this guy is totally wacko and stupid. How can you come to another conclusion after watching this video promoting Flat Earth?
He is on his way to the office, he says. Don't know where he works or what his boss might think of him posting these videos.
In 2018, Tesla delayed deliveries from Q2 until Q3 in order to maximize the availability of the full $7,500 tax credit in the second half of the year.
In 2019, the OP suggested they would pull forward deliveries from Q3 into Q2 because the final phase out of the tax credit begins on July 1.
The combination of those two ploys means year-over-year comparisons will be more difficult, particularly for the 3rd quarter 2019. TSLA has commanded high multiples (of revenue) because of the growth narrative. If growth is perceived as flattening, even if only until new facilities/products begin to show up in the financial statements, institutional holders may reduce their positions until those expectations are realized.
Odd that he doesn’t think dinosaurs existed, considering he works at one.Yeah he's out there. Also thinks dinosaurs never existed. He works at a car dealership. fancy that
There's also the option of using a computer controlled clutched differential, but not only is that way more expensive than open diff with friction brakes, the wear parts are hard to service too (since you have to take apart the diff). Using friction brakes may shorten their life, but it's much easier to swap pads than to replace clutch packs.

Where do they acquire the needed capital? Are they going to buy an existing mining operator and its reserves? Who processes what Tesla extracts?The benefit will outweigh the cost.

This guy is an honest-to-god flat earther. I've used that term in jest at the shorts, but it's actually true.
(note, I don't think this guy is dumb. A bit crazy, yes. Sadly, sometimes the crazies win. Irks me that some crazy shorts are making money off Tesla. After all is said and done though they'll likely be in the red).
They just acquired $2B, which is just a rainy day fund. They have plenty of capital. Idk, probably buy a small mining operation or try to find a new mine. Maybe Boring Co can help. I know, boring and mining are two very different things, but hey they both involve diggingWhere do they acquire the needed capital? Are they going to buy an existing mining operator and its reserves? Who processes what Tesla extracts?
Didn't know. But I'm glad he didn't disappoint on this front.
The porn industry preferred VHS.VHS didn't win because it was first, it won because a) their tapes were long enough for a full movie (betamax tapes were originally only 60 mins long) and b) because the players were less expensive.
So to win, be practical and affordable (in that order). Blackberry was firstest with the mostest once, where are they now?
I will also say that Sheetz gets my business even when I'm not in the Tesla. I want to support them even when I'm just filling up the Nissan or grabbing a snack because they are working with Tesla.

Meijer is a big supporter of Tesla here in Michigan with Superchargers at quite a few of their locations. I now make a point to shop there for pretty much everything.
