There's no logic behind the stock price. I'm preparing a buy but will wait and see a bit longer. I expect it to keep dropping or at least hovering around 200 until Q2 report.

Going private is different than a buy out.Whether if it’s a buyout or take private, anything under the price of $420 is shady on Elon’s part as he decided to reverse course, especially when $420 was within striking distance months ago. He has publicly stated that the funding was there, VW was one of the presumed parties involved, and he turned them, along with his bankers down. With Elon stating recently that Tesla will be a $500 billion company within 5-10 years, why would he sell for anything less than $420? Especially with over $4 billion in cash to take us beyond Model Y.
Take private or buyout, it’s shady business if the price is under $420.
You mean like the FCA deal ?A partner with a lot of money or a deal that is obviously cash flow positive.
This. I think meeting Q2 guidance will get us back to $250+ in short order. It's that simple.
While I suspect you are right, I decided to buy in halves. 50% at $195 today and sit on the other half for a bit to see what happens in the short term. I wouldn't be surprised if you are correct and it either stays flat or drops a bit further - at which point the other 50% goes in.There's no logic behind the stock price.

Thanks for the correct link, and now I know what you’re referring to.
You’ve misunderstood/disregarded the important context.
He was saying that taking orders online only would reduce prices—as a result of reduced expenses from closing retail stores. Not because of going to online only sales per se. And it’s not just “more” as you wrote, it’s completely online only.
Well, as you should also know by digging in a little more, just 1-2 weeks after that announcement, they’ve pretty much walked back on the entire idea. Only a single digit % of stores closed and as a result, they announced prices would go UP to offset the retail location expenses.
Not blaming you. Context is key.
Here's what I was able to find in the transcript of the Q1 call about S/X costs and prices:
Elon Musk
"Yes, I should mention that the upgraded powertrain for S and X was actually launched in a significant cost down because we essentially took the high volume, we’re driving units of the Model 3 which is extremely efficient magnet motor and product electronics and we made a version for that for the contract unit of S and X. And so, we’re actually able to get cost reduction while improving range and [indiscernible] of the car. That’s just 1 example."
I.e. sharing part of the power train drives down S/X costs.
Going private is different than a buy out.
Yes I get that, and Elon better vote “No” on his 20%. Voting yes on anything less than $420 is unacceptable when he’s turned down $420. Elon’s answer to a buyout should be similar to what he gave the Saudis: buy on the open market. Period.
OT:Yes, they did.
From the report:
We enabled the feature and drove on several highways across Connecticut. In the process, multiple testers reported that the Tesla often changed lanes in ways that a safe human driver would not—cutting too closely in front of other cars, and passing on the right.
Could see that Friday if Elon sends an emailneed China to resolve, stock needs to get out of this danger zone or after Q2 earnings could see 15X

Could be a big part explaination of this low price : tech pockets rotating to lyft and Uber. Elon was probably aware of this and then we got investor autonomy day.Anybody selling right now is insane. At some point, someone with a lot of money (im thinking billions) is going to just snap and buy a *sugar*-ton of TSLA and its going to go bananas. Could be Larry Ellison Could be Sergey/Lartry. Could be saudis or someone similar. This is a stupid bargain at this price.
I remind you that Uber, which has no tech to speak of, no path to profitability, and serious competition is valued dramatically higher right now. Thats literally insane.
