It’s because Trump called him genius and it’s on CNBC.

Some people are content booking 38% growth for the year on Jan 22nd. Can you blame them?

Awaiting more information, no public emergency announced today. Will reconvene tomorrow with more information.
I don't know why anyone would think I made any significant amount of money as I drive my Tesla Semi towing my Roadster 2.0 to get some groceries.

It's an interesting day when the Tesla Bulls here are all disappointed when the SP is +$21. 
Robinhood is showing expected EPS at $1.72. Not sure if this is a new development or not... just noticed it.
It has the appearance of manipulative hedge funds or auto/oil interests short-selling to push the price through key levels (ending in 0 or 5) that trigger cascades of stop limits set by weak longs. Weak longs include day-traders who opened their positions in the morning and must close them before the end of the day. This allows short-sellers to cover at significantly lower prices than at the morning high. Much of this has been in sync with moves in the macros, albeit by larger percentages for TSLA.
Institutions that invest for the long term do not trade in such high volume bursts. They do not want to alter the price too much while they are trying to buy or sell.
I would not be surprised to see large up moves continuing in the coming mornings as short sellers respond to margin calls, and possibly more afternoon shenanigans by manipulators. This right up through next week's earnings report and possibly more in the days following. Much depends on the remaining bankrolls and resolve of the manipulators.

Oh yeah? Well, I remember someone being told "Get back in your box".
What do you know... we became spoiled these past few weeks. 600 was so close...It's an interesting day when the Tesla Bulls here are all disappointed when the SP is +$21.
I'll point out that they posted a follow-up tweet in that thread calling the Maxwell process batteries "solid state", which isn't what I understood the Maxwell tech to enable.
The dry electrode formulation process eliminates the need solvent/drying formation during manufacture, but in either case, the electrode always is dry by the time it's inserted in to the battery casing, along with liquid electrolyte.
A "solid state" battery typically has the connotation of non-liquid electrolyte (gel or solid). I've seen nothing in the Maxwell docs indicating they had that tech, but I could have overlooked something.
If my understanding is correct, it calls in to question the accuracy of their claims...
The overall tax burden is high especially in places like California where, depending on your income, you can pay up to About 54% on short term gains. Even long-term gains can be total of up to 37% including Obama tax. I’d rather have that money sitting in Tesla with chance to grow then going to Uncle Sam.
I honestly don’t understand why people sell unless they are in a low tax bracket or think there will be a big drop the future.
Even if I knew the stock would drop $100, it would not make sense for me to sell.

there have been many cautionary posts about thirdrowtesla (omar/stevejobsghost). Being a superfan on social media allows you a lot of leeway to be inaccurate with info. He means well, but I would take all of his forward looking claims very carefully.
CNBC doing its best to try to bring down the stock. They just had Craig Irwin from Roth Capital on talking down the stock - his price target is $249, and he is sticking to that price. I wish that CNBC would balance these bears with a bull. Not likely based on their historical bias against Tesla. Oh well.
