Well yeah, then there's that. lol(Except for the fact that it's about $100 lower than it should be right now).
I hope not.
Ok, makes sense, just US. My bias is to focus on global market.It was the U.S. chief of VW, so I believe it was limited to the U.S. market - where Tesla certainly has 50% of the EV market.
Also, the car industry likes to use unit sales as a measure of market share, while the real metric of success should be revenue driven and cash earned.
Unit sales is inferior:
But the car industry has a lot of influence over messaging, so unit based market share is used dominantly.
- It allows the hiding of transaction prices (you can bridge shortfalls by incentivizing/discounting at the dealership level, without it showing up in unit sales data),
- it allows the inflation of market share by low value high volume models.
New So yesterday, Option Sniper said it's clear that the shorts are going to get it handed to them soon. (Posted in this thread yesterday, too lazy to look it up).
Can anyone offer any insight on that? I know he's a technical trader so it likely is based purely on technicals...wondering if anyone here had thoughts about it. Guessing mostly because we're sitting near the bottom of the Boellinger Band (I think?)
I hear Longhorns are deadly afraid of Terrapins.

I think OS's assumption is largely based on this huge cup-handle pattern (see tweet).
I'll just assume, for the time being, that this short squeeze prediction is going to be a failure as well, like the last 20 ones over the last ~12 months never materialized.
This is a much safer prediction: eventually I might turn out to be wrong with my assumption of no short squeeze, but it will be after a very nice track record of only 1 failure out of 20-30 predictions.
I was mainly thinking about the social impact angle of the transition away from coal - which is usually dependent on levels of employment, not absolute output/revenue.

On its way to 0...Morgan Stanley downgrade $283
BTW, I don't see how Tesla has a 50% share of the EV market. I think we're getting close to 20%.
About an hour ago on CNBC new panelist Mark Tepper advised viewers to sell Tesla shares, because Model S & X test drives are down 50% year over year. I have no idea where he got that information, but if true:
A temporary dip could have been expected when tax credits were halved. Three more months of free Supercharging is now given to those who choose not to test drive. A car can now be returned for a refund within three days with no questions asked if no test drive was taken. Since most of those cars are made to order, one cannot easily test drive a particular car and then choose to buy it. There are now so many of those cars out there that a great many prospects can now test drive a friend’s car.
By incentivizing not to test drive, fewer employees and test cars are needed at Tesla stores. The business decision to discourage test drives is a sound one. It’s added reason to buy the stock, not sell it.
Most likely the same place Gordon Johnson found out that Tesla was going to build cars in China and sell them in the US.
Curt, I know you are well aware of what's in the "Cramer Manipulation" video.

This is the "Bear's-not-a-concern-since-I'm-faster-than-YOU" school of business. I love it! No, how to make it a pithier phrase....Yes that's Tesla in a nutshell. They make lots of obvious mistakes, yet they end up on top anyways.
After running my own company for a while I came to the conclusion that while we made our share of mistakes, the competition's was usually a lot worse.
