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

[FrankSG]

“The base model is planned to have a 150-kWh battery pack with an expected range of 500-plus miles from a single charge”

Model S = 100 kWh -> 350 something miles range (give or take a few dozen)
Model H = 150 kWh -> 1.5 * 350 = 500+ miles range

duh! So obvious...

You never went to elementary school? l2math bro

(I honestly wouldn't be surprised if that's how they got their specs)

If I was making a power point EV (which is all we seem to see) I would really pump it up.
1000 mile range ...full charge in 1 minute....battery last a gazillion miles.

My dad used to say if your going to lie...you might as well lie big.

Tesla's electric cars require far less maintenance than gas-powered vehicles. Here are all the differences between them.

A positive article on BI. This is the side of things I wish would get more attention. People are aware of the pollution angle (whether they agree or not) and have a vague idea that EVs are cheaper to fuel. Maintenance is something people just take for granted.

Disagree. We want less ICE's on the road, not more. Not everyone can or will buy a Tesla, that's just a given. Or are you suggesting it's likely Tesla and other BEVs will gain 100% market share in the next 5 years? Be realistic. Believe in the mission.

I do believe in the mission, that's why I added the qualifier. I can't do anything about this pandemic or the actions from legacy auto so I can at least take solace that I will make more money personally.

My purchase of one share for 4/20 day is complete @ $734. Who's joining?

I bought 36 shares at $738

1. I don't see any way in which Tesla could be supply constrained for Model Y this year, or even next year to be honest. SUV/CUV is a much larger segment than the Model 3, and there's at least some pent-up demand.

You mean demand constrained?

Negative market, but it's trying?

Nabbed a 5/15 900c for 28.45 when it hit 719 today. Instantly up 15%. Thanks shorts

He mentioned the low reverse speed in Tesla's which made me think that would be an unfortunate limitation which I hope Tesla eliminates in the Cybertruck. Sometimes when off road you need to use full power in reverse to get out of bad situation.

OT:
I think when off-roading you could sometimes need enough torque to break traction, forward and backward.
But I doubt you would ever need high reverse speed, am I missing something here?

shorts have taken the stock down many times, this is clearly a larger market response to the oil markets falling appart

To 735, sure. But the big dip to ~712 was clearly manipulation.

Looking like it's about to outperform the NASDAQ... after that it's time for some green

 

[dl003]

Looks like macros are improving and volume is also picking up slowly. Surprise is certainly on the menu today.

 

[Kenypowa]

wow green

I'm sure we're on the same side, @Nocturnal . My point is, we don't need - and shouldn't want - the legacy automakers to fail for Tesla to succeed. There is a bigger market than Tesla and established BEV makers (like BYD and BAIC) can satisfy in the near term. The more quickly existing automakers switch to EV, the more likely we can save the planet from environmental catastrophe.

Ok, today will be a down day. Macro's are down, and it looks easy to get TSLA down and keep it there.

I'm glad we have so many self-proclaimed experts in predicting TSLA short-term price movements.

What would TSLA investors do without knowing where the price was going from one minute to the next?

 

[gtrplyr1]

Don't call it a comeback .....

cheers to the longs

 

[Mo City]

I expected WTI to continue falling but it takes my breath away to see it plunge from over 20 on Thursday to 10.72 this morning. Just wow.

Nice to see TSLA in the green for now but we'll see if it holds up with these headwinds.

This forum would only have about 500 pages, that's what. LOL

Yes. You may have missed it when I said I was putting in a race track so I could FSD race my Teslas against each other.

I can't wait for the scene where one of your henchmen is dropped into the tank of piranha cats.
