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

[Tslynk67]

And sold my 5 remaining Jan 2021 $650's for $220 each - or 21900% profits

I suddenly have quite a lot of money (by my standards) to play with

When TSLA moved to second place with a market cap of over $100bn, I thought it would take some time to better Toyota Motor Corp. looking like that may come far sooner than I expected...

 

[T@oo]

Awwrriight, you slackers:

The next time anyone will be permitted to engage in a little numerology is when TSLA hits $2,249.68. Not until then.

But 100 TeslaPoints to the first who comes up with the correct reason for same.

420.690.000.000 market cap.

Edith: Forgot three zeros.

Consolidation today, bonkers Monday? Just a hunch based on the last few weeks. Not an advice.

*high-fives self (and everyone else here)*

 

[Bobfitz1]

Anyone know where I can buy a C17?

Time to raise your $3999.99 sell order @Unpilot.

Advice!

Had CNBC on in the car and a little before 9:55am PT to they were talking Tesla and about the rise today. One of the guys referred to “retail clowns”. Hmm all I could think is who’s laughing now.

Then maybe 5 min. after 10am PT talk of Tesla began again. Guess it’s not so hard to ignore on the broadcast lately. Sounds like more and more of the discussion is about analysts changing their tune. Of course still a number holding on to an overvalued stock that is due to come down.

 

[MFranc123]

Just wanted to say congratulations to all on this last spectacular rally. : D

Ok, I don't even know what kind of words I could use to congratulate you guys today (so just have these).

Been mostly observing this board since I bought my Nissan LEAF and first TSLA shares in 2013. I have to add my voice to the chorus of folks offering big thanks and appreciation to the extremely knowledgeable contributors on this board that volunteered their insights during the darker days. I am by nature a conservative investor, with most of my market exposure through VTI and other broad-based funds. I am a true believer in Tesla, its mission and products, but if not for this community I fear I would have sold out during the last trip below $200. I never lost faith in Elon or the product, but rather started to question if the bears/shorts could actually damage the SP and reputation of the company enough that it might actually fail or have its growth trajectory severely altered. On my worst days, the thought that ultimately kept me steadfast was that if Tesla fails then what good would the surplus money do me or my kids on a wrecked planet anyway. Betting on Tesla/TSLA really is the ultimate win-win. Congrats and thank you to all!

resting not crashing

Mr. Big Oil said... enough is enough.

Mir ihorse says: 'not hearing about short covering in size occurring on the street, looks like long buying' 2/3/2020
His chart shows a steep decline till november though? still at more than 20 million shares shorted though.

 

[X Fan]

Been out of pocket at Drs. this morning. A 100 point moon shot, just WOW!

Hail to the Longs; shorts, keep closing your positions because it's getting very costly......

 

[Skryll]

Interesting pattern developing. Huge spike, big drop, then steady rise for awhile. Huge spike, big drop, back into a rise.

Huge spike = big short position covering?
Big drop = algos selling for very short term profits?
Steady rise = buyers continue purchasing at a better price?

I was explaining it as shorting and regretting and covering again in the midst of others buying

 

[azaz]

Sell or keep holding these 2/28 1000 calls?

what say you @anthonyj

 

[thait84]

Picked up 2 $800 calls for 2/7 this morning. Just sold one at 150% return. Holding the other for now. Simply nuts.

That may depend on FSD progress. Cheap/abundant robotaxis might be very desirable in a recession. ​

Me and you both! I picked up 2 Feb 700 800 calls at 3.20 this morning when I saw all the action this morning. It is at 14 now, but I just want to let it ride for some more tendies!

 

[Sparky4life]

Getting HW3 installed in my 2018 LR RWD Model 3 today! I scheduled an appointment in December and Tesla cancelled it because the it was not yet available for my VIN. Tried again a couple of weeks ago and this time they didn't cancel! They are also addressing a couple of bulletins (replace charge port pins, adjust frunk latch). I don't want to cause a run on the service center, so please keep this a secret

Anything else exciting happen in Teslaland today??

 

[UncaNed]

I guess I will remove my sale order at $1100 just in case lol

Wholly Smokes! I'VE got sell orders like that, considered beyond the realm of reality on January 22...

I just deleted them all. Much thanks @juanmedina for that post!

EDIT- oops. Late to the party.

Ok, can we now confidently say we've passed 300 for the last time?!

If we went back to $300 then I'd load up the truck with OTM leaps!!

 

[hoang51]

I think the heavy trading in TSLA broke Merrill Edge... The insanity of TSLA today... I love it. Keep it going.

This question is no difference than the "what color should I buy my Tesla".
