Did Nikola Tesla have a middle name?
That would be my business plan.

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

You might be confusing Elon's compulsive need to control the message (you know, the guy who micromanages every aspect of Tesla, from design to production and to marketing, the guy who checks the production line in person when there's a technical issue, and who considers himself the chief engineer in the company) with Elon's desire to be the center of attention. We know the first to be true, and while from the outside they may appear the same, we actually don't have any specific reason to believe the second. If he wants to be the absolute face of Tesla, then why am I familiar with names such as Andrej Karpathy, Drew Baglino or Jerome Guillen?
Lisa Su did not start AMD.
Big difference. Make it huge.
Neither did Elon with Tesla
Both CEOs kept their companies from going under and brought it back from the dead.
Biggest difference is length time as CEO.
Didn't we missed max pain the past 2 Fridays? So you know, there's a chance we don't have to hit max pain this time either.
Predictable silly answer.
Elon funded the company with his capital from the outset.
Lisa Su funded nothing, even though she is impressive.
Not sure if shared yet - article sourced by two anonymous employees claiming two COVID infections at the seat assembly building:

Ofcourse. We can go lower and higher. And Max Pain can change before friday.
I wouldn't care to search and just go with a widely recognizable Ivanovich Motors.
And the logo could be super cool - an "И" letter!

CNBC just interviewed Colin Rusch from Oppenheimer who IIRC is usually negative on Tesla, and fits their narrative of interviewing contrarian characters after Ron Baron hyperbole.
But this time, as far as I could tell, he was finding it difficult to be negative. He really made it sound to me like Tesla is in a strong position.
They tried pivoting into Nikola (IMO giving Nikola respect as a legit manufacturer) and asking him for contrasts, but Rusch wouldn't take the bait. He said they are not in production yet so they haven't been able to figure out what they don't know.

Volkswagen chief apologises to board over leaking accusations
...Last week, Mr Diess told thousands of managers that confidential information about the group’s software failings had leaked from the supervisory board, which includes members of the works council, as well as representatives of shareholders Porsche SE and the state of Lower Saxony.
The accusation angered several supervisory board members and at a meeting on Monday the 61-year-old apologised in person and in writing, according to a person familiar with the matter.
A spokesperson for the supervisory board said Mr Diess acknowledged that his statements were “inappropriate and wrong”. The board would “continue to support [Mr Diess] in his work”, the spokesperson added.
That's what happens when you run a company by committee. Can't saythe truth potentially upsetting things, and everyone needs to agree with everything. All decisions need to be discussed, debated and agreed on by tens of council members. Yes, that's what a real CEO does: they apologise for insensitive remarks in person and in writing! (I wonder if they also made him go stand in the corner and think about what he'd done.)
Yes, Tesla's "competition" in the EV space will most definitely catch up with them in no time flat!

When the Nikola SP eventually tanks, will they call it “Tesla of USA” in the media stories?
???
I read that as he incorrectly blamed the supervisory council for the leak. The issue was not the information itself.

"Neko no me"
Meanwhile, the Upper-BB is increasing ~15 to 20 each morning:
- Fri, Jun 5, 2020: $892.90
- Mon, Jun 8, 2020: $908.42
- Tue, Jun 9, 2020: $936.65
This wold provide 'head-room' support for the SP later this week if the Upper-BB climbs above the ATH of ~$970 (from Feb 4, 2020). The difference on that day was the Upper-BB had been exceeded by $160 (providing an irresistible target for shortzes).
Here's the chart from Feb 4, 2020: (taken 2 min before the start of the 'big bear' raid)
It's a totally different setup this time in June 2020. SP is riding the Upper-BB right now. When the SP rides up with the trading channel, there's no reason for a technical short bear raid. Even the Middle-BB is over $843 right now ($43 above even the Upper-BB on Feb 4), providing strong support and a firm floor.
EDIT: and, we're G-R-E-E-N: $951.17 at 11:00 ET (with Upper-BB at $938.94)
Cheers!

Yes, he was made to apologise for blaming the council members for leaking info related to their software problems (ID3-related). What I found interesting is that the council made a bigger deal of Diess's accusations than of the leak itself. Because a potential loss of revenues is nothing compared to the actual loss of decorum!
But just a light green.
