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

[Zaxxon]

Results aren't even out yet?!?

Someone seems to have them.

 

[HG Wells]

I never understand why it takes so long for them to post the report....

Last minute changes.
Never do today what can be put off till tomorrow.

 

[EV forever]

Elon's going to release this at 4:20pm

Let's see. 3 more minutes

This I believe

 

[Thumper]

It will swing widely the first 30 mins ...

 

[Quesder]

Boom!!

TSLA boom brings up NIO!

 

[Cherry Wine]

Did someone FOMO their way through the AH book? So weird.

EDIT: And since I'm making a comment anyway, I am so irritated that I had a call scheduled yesterday for 2:30 PM today. Urgh. GLTA.

Bingo. Unfortunately some of the folks that really need to (or would be nice to) get behind Tesla are also anti-mega corporations and/or billionaires. This is why there is an anti-Tesla bent within progressive journalism circles.

While billionaire owners of the media (mostly right-wing types) are certainly behind some of the anti-Tesla bias in the media and blatant hit pieces, I think the more subtle anti-Tesla bias that comes from progressive journalists is easier to explain. It's simply that journalists tend not to buy new cars (for obvious economic reasons), so when Tesla releases ultra-cool cars that check all their boxes (except for their ability to reasonably afford one) it is super difficult. Because it hard to really want something that you know you can't really afford. Journalists buy used Toyotas, Nissans, Kias, etc. and they are often stretching their budgets to pay $10K.

I suspect the price went up a little and then many people assumed that and it snowballed. This happens ever time between close and earnings, sometimes a spike sometimes a drop.

 

[Cattledog]

Elon once said, "A win should feel like a win". Have we been waiting 8 years for it?

Today, I'd like a win to feel like a rout.

The Earnings Call is broadcast here:

Events & Presentations | Tesla, Inc.

At 2:30 PM PDT.

Am I correct in calculating this to be 11:30 in most of Europe? (CEST)

Looks to be an hour from now, so the 2:30 PDT time is off.

This index ETF is beating the S&P 500 by excluding ‘losers’.

The stock not doing much yet

428M in regulatory credits. 104M GAAP profit.

Yep, they did the accounting tricks to make things profitable "by the books" to get into the S&P500.
