Tesla, TSLA & the Investment World: the Perpetual Investors' Roundtable

Negative rates were not good for Japan and Europe. But then again Powell is crazy and he's being ridden all the time by his boss so maybe we'll see negative rates in the US for the first time ever.

FWIW:
I believe the market will react to the actions taken by Spain, France and Germany this weekend (and a few others) plus the announcement this weekend of the closing of schools and businesses throughout the USA.
IMO: the market has not fully baked in the economic hits of these latest moves. Thus, the slide down and bumpiness of the markets will continue.
Not advice but be careful out there.
Btw: Printing money is just for the financial system and will do minimal for the consumer (ie the latest low rates have not flowed down completely to the consumer in the mortgage world).

I agree. Pumping money only helps those who have assets. The ones who really need help now are working class hit hardest by the economy shutdown

At least here in Los Angeles most dealerships have an internet manager where you can order a car online and do all the negotiations and "paperwork" online.
Never heard of home delivery for the car but for a $20k-$200k sale I think they would rather than lose a sale.
I guess my blood pressure wasn't pretty writing this.
When I google I find this story on many German news sites with familiar names like Die Zeit, Der Spiegel and ZDF. But I'm not German so I don't really know these papers. And cannot properly assess this story. Perhaps some of my German friends here could enlighten us?
And I hope my American friends and all of us here can twist our politicans ears if they do try to behave like Bond villains.
Ps! Haven't sold any TSLA so far!

I will immediately stop buying Norwegian smoked salmon,Danish ham in a can, and stop shopping at Ikea.
It's understandable that pre-market drops 1000 points, whose blood pressure is getting pretty?I guess my blood pressure wasn't pretty writing this.

I read this article earlier today don't believe it at all. At least the exclusive/monopoly part - the rest could be true. It would be political suicide for any politician trying to do that. More like some of the European countries are using things like this to display anger about the flight ban, etc.
Now is not the time to start petty battles over hurt feelings between countries/regions.
The way I look at things is, what would Tesla be worth if there was no virus scare?
Long term bulls who are selling now probably haven't changed their opinion on Tesla, so their sale is more a commentary on the macro risk, and a desire to lock in profits. I'm not critical, if sales at 500+ lock in profits and keep cash on the sidelines until there is more certainty, I understand the logic, even though it is not what i am doing..
As I said earlier .that cash sitting on the sidelines helps us longs who remain in.
I do think investors who bought at 300+ and sold for a loss around 180 made a bad decision. There is no reason I can think of the sell Tesla for a loss, locking in a profit is different.
Post virus I expect less short seller activity, most of the smart shorts are out now, or will get out in this macro based drop... There is no logical reason why new short would get in, there are probably much better targets...
IMO there will be a post virus world in the next 12-18 months and Tesla will be in good shape.. as to when the price drops will reverse that is anyone's guess.
So it is possible that some who sold to take profits can also buy back in at a significantly lower price ahead of any price rises...If you manage to do that and do it well, congratulations, and thanks for helping put a floor on the price.

Slowing down can be just as good an exercise as speeding up, albeit with somewhat different and hopefully temporary results.
The story is all over. Reported on the excellent German public radio too. Will try to find out more in the morning.
Edit: it certainly sounds [!] like atrocious behavior by this administration. Sigh. Company in question is called Curevec.

"like stepping on the accelerator after you hit a tree"
Segment on driverless trucks. Didn’t see it but that’s the description for the episode.
