In my experience with margin calls, most brokerages do not carry you over the weekend or holiday. They will make the trade for you in the last hour before a weekend or holiday...
might add some upside into the close.

There’s no way Mark is really shorting this stock haha he’s predicting 108k delivered and somehow sees this as proof that his short is justified. No logic

I agree with the first two statements, strongly disagree with the third.
"Silly" is not a well-defined term. People have left millions on the table by taking profits when they thought their gains were "silly". Or when they thought the share price was "silly" high. If the underlying company has a great future, it's better to err on the side of riding it over the top. Because there are too many false summits along the way. If you sell at one of those, the gains you miss out on will be huge.

I worry with their stock options all Tesla employees are going to retire and there will be nobody left! Lol.
Thanks, I think I'll wait some more. In heinsight, all my day trading didn't amount to much and I held about 15% more TSLA than today at one time. I thought the truck was "Silly" so I sold some just before this runup. Therefore, I left money on the table and should have left it alone. So no, only sell if you need to IMHO.

Guess what? Jonas is all over CNBC all day today including after the current commercial break. Shocking!
Hilarious to look at the chart whole these paid clowns yap on TV.

CNBC has an "analyst" coming on shortly to tell us why the price is about to "pullback" because it is so overvalued. Guess they ran out of 50,000 ways to discuss Boeing committing Harakiri but still a great buy and are now back to no matter how well Tesla executes its going bankwupt.
This is the real tuition payment. The hard lessons are learned when the money you had worked hard for just disappears. A general recommendation to new/young investors - feel the pain before you bet big.
Each investor should have a chosen investment philosophy. One size does not fit all.
My primary rule is to buy only something I believe in, and belief for me depends on lots of analysis.
I do not ever sell unless I no longer believe in the security I have purchased.
That means I have sold infrequently, but when I do it tends to be a complete divestiture.
The only exception is that I do sell whenever I really need cash. Then I sell some fo the least-favored security I hold at the time.
In years past I dealt with derivatives and FX. I no longer do that because I do not have the patience to carefully manage volatility.
It simply makes little sense to me to recommend my choices for anyone else.

I think it's becoming apparent to everybody that Elon sought and successfully managed to change the game vs WallStreet, playng globally when they thought they had his financial balls: Chanos&MSM bashed TSLA for months pushing him to raise capital, and he was already all over the globe: China, speaking with Chinese government and banks. And now Berlin.
I'm sure there are some other aces up his sleeves, but this is a whole other game that Chanos&co aren't able to play.
They also had this one card (they'll probably have lobby and regulation, at least in US vs FSD), but they couldn't control the lazyness of other OEMs, and now Tesla has the best:
Apart from macros, recession, Trump, or a VW wildcard like a real, competitive product, 2020 will be spectacular.

- battery tech
- product
- path to FSD
- economies of scale on EVs
- supercharging network
- platform for software updates (meaning profit with software margins...)

Santa must concur that Jonas has been naughty.

looks like misinformation campaign really wants any Xmas gathering Tesla talk to go from,
“Wow, Tesla looks unstoppable!”
to,
above, replied to with,
“I don’t know. You see it went down today(/yesterday)? Morgan Stanley guy said it is way overvalued as an automaker, which it is, and it’s only a matter of time for market to cut it in half where it should be based on how automakers are valued.”
Congratulations Longs! The intestinal fortitude is beginning to pay off. 
I can't see the institutional shorts giving up easily plus the MM have been making way too much money on the volatility to walk away from their cash cow. So, what Tesla "crisis" will their hacks start talking about to direct the story away from the, presumably, good production/delivery and earnings reports?

She mentioned being with "family". Odd, the first thing I thought of was the movie I, Robot. Hopefully her programing err I mean thoughts don't change regarding the 3 rules.
I grabbed a sneaky 10 shares just to spite him. $424 is clearly my highest purchase price so far.
