Tesla, TSLA & the Investment World: the Perpetual Investors' Roundtable
- Thread starter AudubonB
- Start date
I was surprised by the speed of the Supercharger network in Europe, but the Ionity network is also expanding fast, maybe even faster than the Supercharger network in it’s first few European years: IONITY - WHERE & HOW
The Germans may be behind Tesla, but they’re certainly ahead of the other car manufacturers in Europe.
Someone working late this evening to make sure TSLA doesn't pass $350 (tree-fiddy).

Will this be in or near the former East Germany?

So yer sayin' that 2b € from the FCA deal will come in handy over the next 2 years?Spin from Market Gurus will be TSLA needs more cash
Berlin is smack in the middle of former East Germany.
And unlike Sparks it has a big work force, so finding employees should not be a problem. Berlin has 3,75 million inhabitants, which is comparable to LA. The unemployment rate in former East Germany is 7%, versus 4% in the western part of the country. Wages are about 85% of what they are in the western part.

One thing that anti-Tesla shorts must have been counting on is that Musk would make some business mistakes common to inventors who are brilliant with respect to their invention but not so brilliant in the basics of running a company.
Boy, is that a risky bet. I challenge anyone to listen to this interview and state that Musk does not know what he is doing. He is smarter than all the investment types, who are themselves smart, but not in his league by any means. He is one of the very, very few CEOs who actually know everything about what their company is doing. And in my professional life I have met many CEOs. They are smart, but as to business. I have never met one who is in Musk's league as to the substance of their company.
Musk could easily be better when it comes to his timelines, but I have also heard him say that the important thing to him is not how this quarter is, but whether he is on the right track.
Bet against him? On cars, when you can see the cars already produced? On the technology? When you can see it? On getting to ultimate FSD, when you can see what the cars already do? On energy? When you already see that he understands that battery management is the key to widespread adoption of wind and solar? On whatever other projects he has going? When he has SpaceX?
Boy, I think not.
The shorts and FUD-sters are mistaking a difficult challenge for an impossible one. They are betting against the wrong guy I would say.
Incentives Galore ..
What happened to the chattery about Saxony, needs to be near port etc. ?
BTW, what kind of Auto workforce is present in Berlin at the moment?

True, but I was ENGROSSED by the EXTENSIVE discussion on LANGUAGE FAMILIES while the market was OPEN.
Too bad I had to wade through those to get to some, uh, investor discussion, wot?
Cheers!
I would agree, they still don't seem to get it. There is no vision, not even to copy Tesla.
The Der Spiegel article was really good, did you get a chance to read it? Tesla is going for autonomous vehicle fleets, basically to out uber uber and have users pay for them and software drive them and have no ICE issues. Cars able to understand when and why they need work, report themselves to service centers. Low risk, safe inexpensive driving...that is also great for environment. Only happens at the systems level and requires reinventing mobility. The car just becomes an extension of a software driven experience. They don't get this nor do they have a competing vision.
It's nice to see some new, knowledgeable posters in this thread today (with good intentions).
Hi guys, this is my first post. I have only been reading this forum. But since I live in Berlin and work as a policy advisor for transport in the Berlin state parliament I thought I could share some information.
The GF4 seems to be build in this location: Google Maps (Grünheide). At least that's what this local newspaper is reporting: In Grünheide im Landkreis Oder-Spree: Elon Musk will Tesla-Werk in Brandenburg bauen - Brandenburg - Startseite

Yes, difficult for certain industries, but Berlin has been though far worse in some folks lifetime. Now its time for this generation to show what they can do. Let's roll.

Best first post I’ve ever read.
Interesting tidbit: the plot of land was once eyed by BMW for a new factory.
This is an aerial shot of the industrial area. It looks like the plot in front is the only one big enough to house a Gigafactory.
They only have to get rid of - how symbolic - the gas station in the middle of it.

Yeh. Our current president already has the potentially violent crazies on his side.
