Hmm ... we have P&D numbers and that is not what it says.Because they did not produce and sell as many cars + demand is weaker and costs higher.

Why is Q4 profit less than Q3. IIRC, most were predicting higher profit.
If it was by importance then I'd guess he'd have mentioned Powerpack in front of Powerwall: industrial power storage is a potentially a much bigger - and sooner to act market than residential storage.
Also, the Semi is probably more important in terms of future revenue than the Model Y.
But yeah - it's also possible that he just randomly listed these items in rough order of importance and I'm over-analyzing it, but I don't think he'd have mentioned FSD so prominently if he knew it today that it still was quarters away from introduction, right?
I feel you make dangerous assumption that there will be fast recovery before your calls expire. That's quite a risky game, especially when the macro is great unknown as well.
Echo, echo, echo...To me honestly, with that new information I do not see Tesla over 350$ before June 30th again.
The next 2 quarters get rough.
Reason for layoff is always to reduce costs, which is always positive.You are thinking one sided. Lay offs can be a huge positive OR negative, depending the company announcing it and the reason for the cut. Here, as you can read in the statement, the reason is very negative.
Just to clarify- your working hypothesis is that TSLA has FSD ready and waiting?
Yes, that’s what I was thinking- and lower Chinese S&X ?Lower priced mix with MR Model 3
Exactly. The further it fails, the harder will take for it to recover (especially if the Q4 call is somewhat disappointing).

New Morgan Stanley has a note out this morning. They say that they expect negative cash flow of $1 billion for 2019.

Because Tesla selled a lot high margin performance model 3. The model 3 average sales price was 60k in Q3 (Q2 54k). In Q4 because of the MR, the price dropped again.Why is Q4 profit less than Q3. IIRC, most were predicting higher profit.
I'll give you one reason: Cargo space -- I can't fit a water heater in Model 3, I can in Model S. I would still buy an S in preference to a 3, though not at the premium for a 100D.
This raises the possibility that there potentially going to be a "Full self-driving" product introduction between now and March 15 - within less than two months.
MS is one of the perma-bears, right? No surprise there.
Q4 would falsify that cash flow estimate - if there's even $1m of GAAP profit then cash flow should still be in the $500m-$1b range, and quite easily more than that.
Q4 ER cannot come soon enough - it would bring clarity.
That is not correct. May genuinely doesn't have any good options i.e. options that can win majority in the parliament.Brexit: March 29 deadline, with PM May exercising brinkmanship.
How much of these false flag "this might look like FSD is right around the corner" signals do we need to learn our lesson?
