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

[viridi]

Someone really wants us to be red today. Get out your popcorn.

Okay who sold their TSLA shares?

A private island off the coast of Ireland just sold for $6 million. The buyer only saw it in a video tour

Trendtrader obviously. Pretty sure he will cut down the trees that will spell out "TMC Go F Ur Selves"

I bought 3 1670 call options for Friday July 24th while we were kicking it at 1507 for about 27 racks.
Just letting you know so I can gloat later.

For all that people say about me being too ignorant to invest in Tesla, I turned 10 grand into half a million in the last year... I must be too stupid to fail!

(Elon bro release the Plaid, I'm ready)

My understanding was that the cap gain holiday was only for stock bought during the "holiday". Gains would not be taxed when they are sold in the future. Existing shares owned would be taxed as now.

Now that would be awesome

Are you sure? The July 24th 1670 calls are trading around 90$.

yeah, so if you buy 3 that's...

Why would the whole plant shutdown if the upgrades are being made to GA4 or whatever ?

Meanwhile I feel like Tesla is about to make some moves, no idea if it is to the upside or downside lol. 4 million shares traded and we are mostly flat? All these guys going on media saying it's overvalued are probably looking to buy back in lower. That 1485 level has held pretty strong since yesterday afternoon.

Yesterday they pushed it down to $1431 low, seems more resilient today (or they're not trying too hard).

The Moderna news, impacted macros positively, so harder to take down.
Else new today is like 60K US infections

 

[Nocturnal]

Am I the only one who suspects we may have an announcement for GigaAustin and GigaTulsa at the same time? Austin was told 5k, jobs, Tulsa 7k+. Perhaps Austin will be battery production and Tulsa will be CT.

Of course there're more discovered infections, there's more testing. Does anyone know the infection rate/test, that would be a more meaningful metric.

 

[Tslynk67]

I'm really starting to wonder how many people here actually options

Yep, plenty - and got mighty rich off the back of them too. Prefer to sell weeklies rather than buy them though, I'm more of LEAPS man when it comes to purchases.

Of course that is true, and so is the fact that no one wears masks, have parties etc etc.

It’s called the Investors’ thread so most people here actually shares.

Berlin was just reported as 10k jobs. That's twice what's quoted for Austin. Seems tiny so Tulsa or somewhere else needed as well.

 

[LTC_RRR]

I believe in freedom of choice. If the Pope wants to drive a Cybertruck, he shouldn't have to fly to Spain to buy one!

Assuming he needs a TPM (Tactical Pope Mobile).

 

[Beltsbear]

I think this is possible too, with Austin doing Cybertruck, and Tusla doing batteries and Semi.

I don’t remember seeing anyone’s estimates on the Cybertruck manufacturing efficiencies, but as that is likely the first product out of the new Giga, it might take significantly fewer humans per vehicle/day than S3XY.

 

[jerry33]

No idea, but with 7 houses to clean either maids are required or all their time will be spent cleaning them, both of which defeat the purpose of an island; alone and restful.

That would depend on the maids.

I'm having a similar feeling. I'm not sure how it will be split up, but it wouldn't shock me to see both announced soon.

I'd like to get some input from somebody who understands auto manufacturing in depth. I think we might be radically underestimating the labor/cost savings for building a cybertruck vs a car. Paint alone with the prep, spraying, machine cleaning, touch ups etc. is huge.
