hahaha. Now this is an ad. These fools should have been hired by Tesla to do this. Would have been way cooler. I know I know, no ads from Tesla, yada yada yada, but come on....it's catchy.

"Some popular options trades have recently included bearish put options that would pay out if Tesla shares drop to less than half their current level and hit $200 over the next year, as well as bullish call options tied to a rally to as high as $1,015, Trade Alert data show."
If we ignore the noise then the coronavirus news over the last 24-48 hours has been positive:
So based on current data I'm cautiously optimistic. It will take weeks until the peak in Wuhan is reached, and it's a wait-and-see whether and how fast it spreads within China to other provinces.
- Still all international coronavirus patients are listed as well and stable, several were released as healed, none died. The large majority of international patients showed mild symptoms.
- No trace of pre-incubation infections with international patients. It's up to around 100 people whose travel companions have been extensively examined, who sat on planes and in busy places and the infections so far were all in 'close contact', not through casual contact.
- China has not doubled down on their earlier thesis that the Wuhan virus is infectious during incubation (when patients don't have symptoms)
This effect is highly unlikely at this point.
The large negative margins of the Model 3 ramp-up were due to several factors:
For the Model Y they have all of these factors fixed/improved:
- A large Model 3 specific workforce sitting idle or doing ineffective work,
- GF1 inefficiencies,
- low parts volumes, which reduced economies of scales with suppliers.
- high fixed costs and high depreciation costs due to inefficient capex use.
- Since 76% of the components are shared with the Model Y, they can use Model 3 assembly crews during the initial phase of the Model Y ramp-up, before hiring new line workers at scale,
- GF1 efficiencies will further increase due to the extra battery packs used by the Model Y,
- parts volumes and economies of scale will further increase as well, as most parts are shared.
- I presume the Model Y line is based on the GF3 Model 3 line, which is a third of the capex rate of the original Model 3 lines. Depreciation costs and fixed costs should be much lower.
Good advice. They should double itWe should not cheer for maximum cost this or even next year. Best case scenario the fees should be high enough to be a significant cost that ICE manufacturers can't ignore but not high enough that they can get workers and local politicians to revolt against it.
Newb question Karen: what is the X axis in your graphs? Time? In what increments? Just curious, as I have NO intention of going down the options rabbit hole.
700 contracts at $900I'm more inclined to think it's the MM's trying to keep it down already for Friday.
Yeah, just when you think you are a super bull, you see that. I think those numbers require a true squeeze.700 contracts at $900
Wow. The dispersion of calls from $600 and up sure suggests almost unbridled optimism.
Media coverage is night and day. Last summer a casual friend from B-school reached out with questions about Tesla because he wanted to buy one. One of his friends was convinced that the company would go bankrupt, another liked Tesla and I guess I was the tie-breaker. Things were rough but I assured him that I saw bankruptcy as very unlikely, but even worst case somebody would acquire the company and continue servicing.I love it when over 3/4 of the comments on most SA articles now days are positive! Apparently the sky is not falling.
Can't wait until tomorrow afternoon!
Hmm, speaking of this....
Option pricing implies a probability distribution for the stock reaching various levels at various points in time, which would lend itself naturally to said probability distribution being graphed, with the Y axis being probability percentiles for the stock being at or below each stock price contour, and the X axis being time.
Does anyone know of a website where such graphs can be generated? I mean, I could make a tool to generate such graphs in Google Sheets, but it'd take days to code it.
My current option bets are in May or just after the ER. I figure it has to pop again during one of those times. A $900 SP seems magical so I don't let myself dream that much, even though it's not impossible.Smart balance sheet pessimists see a tsunami coming.
Big Debt conversion soon
Any kind of sales from China Made in Q1
