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

[sundaymorning]

It's getting crazy over here. I live in Amsterdam and the place is literally getting "swamped" with new Tesla's. My street alone has gotten a few more in the past week and December is just half way through. Even though tax benefits get a big cut starting jan 1st, I think the impact of so many new owners spreading the word is going to be huge for 2020

Glad to hear this. I assume no one likes paying $6 a gallon for gas in Europe?

Mod: Made a new thread about short squeezes. This was already a no-no topic in this thread, but in this case it was to make it easier for newbies to find with a search. --ggr.

When Tim Seymour, appearing on CNBC, showed his short chart (babychart?) for TSLA revealing his target cover price (circled and underlined) at $370, he was visibly shaking.
So now that day, that price, that time has come!
Short shorts are shaking today!
Shake it baby, shake it!
Shake, rattle, and roll us a 420!
That’s all I want for Christmas this year.

Let me rewrite this headline without using alternative facts:
Tesla's stock zooms toward two-year high on China factory reality

So do we anticipate margin calls for today/tonight leading to more covering tomorrow?

 

[MXWing]

I laughed that this filled.

For the good of everyone here, I don't mind getting this called away.

 

[woodisgood]

Well looks like we’ll have to save ATH close for tomorrow or Wednesday.

EDIT: democrat Senator from Michigan saying EV credit facing huge resistance from Trump, not likely to be included.

It sounds like Trump doesn’t know that the current credit system puts German and Korean cars at an advantage over American cars. If so, Democrats are not doing a good enough job of pushing the right buttons. Just ask Trump if he wants to make Germany and Korea great again, or if he prefers to make America great again.

Barron's - 21 minutes ago: Tesla Stock Is Cheap — at Least Compared With Saudi Aramco

"He argues that if Tesla can break $410, then it could trade up to $550."

 

[jhm]

Screw $370. No camp out till $420.

 

[Artful Dodger]

Based on past jumps (like today) what has Tesla generally done on day 2 ?

margin-call-induced runup at the Open, then slump later in the day as more big shortzes dish.

Oh, and a Bumberg Raid... or wait that was today.

Cheers!

Watching the Closing Bell on CNBC. Did you know Micron was a buy and up a huge $1.75/share. Boeing for some reason is down $14/sh. FedEx and GE are down for reasons no one really cares. Not much else going on today apparently. HAHAHAHAHAHA

It's extremely likely imho

 

[SpaceCash]

AND we're looking to close near HOD

I think several years over which each laggard can sell 600k cars at a $7k pricing head start to Tesla and GM vs this happening for 200k cars only exacerbates that issue.

Of course, not that this was at all what Trump was thinking.

Without a sunset and/or one pool for all automakers, the incentives are a mess with the US rebate system.

I thought lift off wasn't until 7:10 pm from pad 40 in Florida....

Wait a second... I am in the wrong forum. GO TSLA!!!
