I much prefer focusing on long-term developments instead of obsessing over the short-term but having credible info that Model 3 production is above 6000 cars per week -- versus the 4582 per week Bloomberg estimates -- is still useful information and dramatically affects the bottom line, including margins.
Yes, but to what end? We can agree that for us longer term investors it’s meaningless whether Tesla hits 6000 this quarter or next quarter. And for short term “investors”, how has any production announcement worked out for you so far?
We feed the shorts when we focus on production or demand. These issues are FUD-bait. We only win by demonstrating how innovation drives margin.
