Rates are pretty freaken low already historically in conjunction with low corporate taxes. Don't understand what the big deal is with rate cuts giving wall street this kind of exuberance.

I WOULD like to see it become a dividend stock, but just for one quarter, to force a short squeeze
I used to think I wanted a short squeeze, but now not so sure. As things stand, the shorts are kind of nobbled. There’s a limit to how deep they will go. If they short too high a percentage they expose themselves too much to the risk of squeeze.
If there was a squeeze and the stock shoots past 350 we have to each pick the zen moment to sell and decide how much to sell. Then the whole merry go round starts again. I don’t like my odds of making those decisions accurately.
$350 is a zen moment? Been there, done that. My idea of zen is clearly more aspirational. I’m not getting out of my lounging pajamas for a lousy $350, never mind walking hot coals which any drunk can do. Zen is at least walking on water.
Well that’s the thing. Zen, as in zenith, lies somewhere north of 350 should a squeeze occur. Who knows where it reverses course. I can’t imagine too many on this forum resisting a sell order if it reached 400. The waters are infested with traders.
The pack is extremely good at containing single cell fires. It probably takes 70mph into a pole to get that far in. I think you will see small fires from crashes like that here and there but at 1/5 the rate of the S/X.I'm starting to think that Model 3 packs simply cannot be burned.

I mean, any car can have an upholstery fire or whatnot. But if the pack doesn't ignite from damage like this, what does it take?
Some unwinding. Do we have any evidence of Tesla rushing through June deliveries at the expense of customer experience?July saw 590 Model 3 deliveries in The Netherlands versus 464 in April. Model S went from 2 to 21 and Model X from 2 to 18.

Another reason Model S,X need battery pack upgrades. It's not just V3 charging speed improvements but the fact that M3 appears thus far to be significantly less susceptible to battery fires. The Tesla flagships should also share these very significant features. Downvote me all you want, but how can I in all honesty advice friends and family to buy an S or X, while these important features are lacking.I'm starting to think that Model 3 packs simply cannot be burned.

I expect Tesla will deliver these improvements soon, as they must be cognizant of these drawbacks. But it was a painful unforced error that has caused (and is continuing to cause) lost revenue in their high margin cars. Raven was a good step forward, but battery pack upgrade is vital.
I see your point, but I think there is a halo effect associated with S,X. As that is their flagships. It's not a good look when the flagship has inferior battery tech. A flagship should be superior in almost every way, especially when it comes to the battery. I agree that Roadster can be put off, but even there there is a halo effect (but Roadster already has 2170 cells).I don't disagree, but they have juicier fish to fry.
In their best year (2017) the S+X did approximately 2.2B gross profit over 9.6B revenue. Model 3 will probably do close to 3B gross profit over 15Bish revenue this year, and something like 5B gross profit over 25B revenue next year.
Then there's the Model Y which is supposedly going to sell even more than the 3, the pick-up truck which presumably will sell much more than S+X, and the Semi. Kinda like it'll be nice to launch the new Roadster, it'd be nice to upgrade the S+X, but it just doesn't make financial sense to prioritize S+X upgrade/refresh prior to further expanding 3, and launching Y + Truck + Semi.
Chart is broken, BTFD carefully
If you look on the hourly charts, you'll notice that there was a higher low right around 231/232, which formed a few days ago. That's exactly where the stock bottomed today. As long as that holds, it seems that TSLA is not breaking that higher low pattern. (Although there may have been another higher low around 237/240 -- unclear to me -- which TSLA did hold yesterday but break today). But 231/232 is definitive. If that breaks, then the pattern is broken and the risk of a new downtrend develops.
Only 20k shares traded premarket, which makes me think market makers are adjusting bid/ask spread aggressively to create a bear trap and sell them some useless puts at the open. No other reason to drop 5x as much as the market on a measly 20k sharesNeeds to really hold 231/232 or at least the recent low of 222 after the ER gap down. Otherwise, I expect 180-200 to be re-visited. Ideal scenario would be for a double bottom there.
