At least VG is actually producing vehicles and testing them, and has twice the amount of employees as Nikola.

I’ve been thinking Ron Baron will be a sell the news topic. His timing is following a long run and he delayed due to larger issues of the past two weeks. I won’t be selling, but if we are down today, I may buy my 1200 calls back and sell 1100 and try to make a few extra bucks.
I hate how the media uses Elon image for every Tesla news article. Always wonder why some people hate the guy and thinks he is an egomaniac. Now I know why, the media subconsciously drilled that into our head. Stock goes up, shows a picture of Elon dancing. Years of bombardment of that will get people to think the guy differently.
chamath palihapitiya is on the board at SPCE. Not only is he a huge Tesla bull but I really like his investment/world view in general so that gave me enough of a push to consider SPCE as a real bet.

welcome back! Will never forget this chamath interview on cnbc where they discuss tesla. He's a rare person who has both book smarts and common sense and can eloquently break things down where even a monkey can understand!

As expected, the Upper-BB was up at 936.65 at the Open this morning. This should relieve some technical selling pressure which occurs whenever the SP is substantially above the trading channel:

Seriously? Elon Musk never really tried to have Tesla -- the company -- communicate under Tesla's name. Almost every time something is announced, it's "Elon" talking. He could simply have the announcement made by \@tesla and retweet the post/link to his followers. He could even sign some \@Tesla tweets with a "~Elon" suffix. But no, Elon prefers to keep confusing the company with his person, for some reasons. Make no mistake, he prefers it this way.
Personally, I think it isn't in shareholders' interest. I want Elon to keep joking, teasing, ranting (etc) and be Tesla's first spokesperson, but refusing to make Tesla the main character of Tesla's story is dangerous. As you pointed out, it gives leverage to those who oppose Tesla's mission.

What news? Ron didn't say anything new and as expected, he is still a bull. Profit taking day is probably more like it, however macro is kind of weak today and TSLA is not trading that badly...not yet anyways.
Post battery day is more likely a sell the news moment until P&D. But by the looks of it P&D may come first.

Disruption is hard.
For every Ron Baron who's positive on TSLA that CNBC speaks with, CNBC will bend over backwards to trot out 10 times as many today and ask them "So, Ron Baron likes TSLA, what do you think?"
They can't help it; It's in their DNA.

For anyone interested, the full Ron Baron interview is at the bottom of this article (25 minutes -- not the shorter clip toward the top of the article).

Barron's article;
Tesla Memo Indicates Possible Model Y Quality Issues. Here’s How to Interpret That.
Thank you redFay.

Lisa Su, now the highest paid CEO in the S&P is the face of AMD. She is on stage and in interviews as much as Elon in a given year. However MSM doesn't show her dancing or crying every time there's a story about AMD. It just makes it look like Elon has to be the center of all the attention vs having a company logo with a picture of a Tesla service center. Stock tanks, shows a picture of Elon pissed. Why? Elon really cares about the price action of the stock for that day? MSM makes it seem like he does subconsciously.

Uptick Rule not gonna help poor Nicola now, with no shares available to short. This is a pure sell-off.

Elon wants to be the main center of the attention, otherwise he would let Tesla make some company announcements. I don't know, maybe once a year or something? I've been holding shares since 2012 so I don't care much. But all the communications efforts by Tesla are, now, near zero. The Twitter account, the blog, instagram, Youtube (...), they are almost worthless now. It's all about Elon, Elon, Elon because of Elon. I love the guy but one cannot blame the media for Elon being the center of attention.
Thanks a ton for posting! Last week sales rep said no referral SC miles. Got to call them back today to see if I can now add them to my Y order (which should be delivered this month). Does anyone know if I can use my own referral code and pocket 2k miles? If so, how does one go about doing this?
