Elon tweeted "Tomorrow brings a lemur" on Oct 17, 2018. Here's the Google Chart for TSLA for Oct 18: (Vol was 5,401,871 shares)
So yeah, the Market ignored the news. Guess its better to tweet 2 days in advance, wot?

break out (unless you brush ur teeth on the sitter).
OT listened to the Cathie Wood interview on Off the Chain by BlockWorks Group on Apple Podcasts today. Wow. She actuallly gets it. So refreshing to hear non FUD! Most of this is about Tesla. If you are not too tired from keeping up with this thread, this is a great interview. Brain candy!

I really think that this market movement has almost nothing to do with the announcement. I think it's institutional money wanting to get back into the stock before the bond repayment.
To any institutional investors that bailed back in December and are getting back in now: you're more astute investors than me

Thanks for the link, I generally miss Elon's replies because I refuse to register for Twitter (waste enuf time as it is).
So Elon's considering ways for retail investors participate in SpaceX? Interesting! He R-E-A-L-L-Y needs to talk with @neroden who knows those ropes very well...
Jus' sayin'.

In most regions solar capacity factor peaks in summer while wind peaks in winter, so with the optimum mix of wind and solar for your region, the average capacity won't vary so significantly between summer and winter.
We should eventually build battery storage equivalent to 12 to 24 hours of global electricity demand (which will be 2-3x current electricity use once all our energy use is switched to electricity) to even out the short term variability in renewables and provide backup for extended low sun, low wind periods. But lithium batteries are too expensive to store energy for winter and it might be that with a fully renewable grid we still have to turn on gas plants for 10-20% of our electricity use for a few weeks over winter. Longer term, we could replace these gas backup plants with hydrogen that has been produced using clean electricity and stockpiled over the year.
Short term backup battery storage, more interconnected global grids and better AI weather forecasting should allow the vast majority of our energy generation to come from wind and solar, and will give us enough warning to fire up backup power sources on time.
Enough wind, solar and batteries to match 100% of global energy demand should only cost c.$20trn by the way. Instead, as it currently stands in the next 10 years the world is set to spend c.$8trn on fossil fuel capex, c.$55-65trn on fossil fuel energy purchases and $50-100trn on fossil fuel financial, health and environmental subsidies.

We Heard a Tesla Burnt To a Crisp, Leaving Its Charred Husk on a Vermont Lake. So We Walked Out There and Found It. — Popular Mechanics
The timing is so suspicious. Can’t imagine driving over a rock and this fire and story. I read that another Tesla fire in the past was found to have a bullet in the pack suggesting fraud. I’d put my money on the ultimate explanation for this fire some sort of fraud. We may never know....

Tusk rhymes with Truck, and close spelling. Elephants, like trucks, are also big and can push and move things around. The tusk could also symbolize a truck's tow-hitch.
Elon also mentioned that this was his favorite project, even more so than the Y. Though he did say that it may only be revealed this summer (perhaps with the Y). Maybe not a live reveal tomorrow, but some teaser images and specs and perhaps reveal, production timelines. He may want to stay abreast of the recent developements with Rivian, GM, Amazon, and also Ford. JM2C

Is this mug from Tesla?I am ready for today
I think the official mug is matte black in and out.
Hi people! Long time lurker here...
Elon Tusk is now following on twitter Donald Tusk, president of the european council.
And thanks to all for the great information over the months!

All of those pesky titanium-plate-puncturing rocks on the surfaces of frozen lakes....
Oh, I'm sorry, was the argument instead that he hit some metal-puncturing rock en route to the lake, but then merrily kept on driving as if nothing was wrong until the battery spontaneously decided, "Meh, I'm going to ignite now" half an hour later?
I hear the owner has hired a spokesman.

To add to my 'TUSK' thought. How about the EU GF becomes a joint venture with MB as well....making those MB. Sprinter
Sprinters are made in Ladson, S.C. But that'd still be good for a future J/V with Mercedes-Benz Vans, LLC.

mine (which came with my P100D in 2016) is matte black with red inside like that image.
