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

[Joe F]

I bought a S3XY white hoodie yesterday!

My Cybertruck shirt drops tomorrow!

Wish the truck would follow shortly after it.

It's articles like this that make me think Tesla Energy may surpass Tesla Motors in the long run:

Costa Rica Is At Nearly 100% Renewable Energy For Electricity | CleanTechnica

If FSD doesn't pan out all the way then I think that's a sure thing.

I suspect that the short who did the last minute dump is just going to give people the chance for a lower entry point in the morning

What, a $920 start instead of a $980?

 

[jhm]

The market sees $970 coming up, loses bowel and bladder control all at once. Grumpy old guy thinks maybe $970 is the limit for awhile.

At $1110/sh, Tesla beats out Toyota as worlds most valuable automaker by market cap.

Nothing good happens above $970, grumpy old guy mutters, nothing good.

I wonder what impact that drop will have on tomorrow’s action. We were looking to close near the ATH, which usually bodes well for the next day (it did the last few days). But the manipulator tried to make the chart look worse. And this drop could have made some people jittery. Let’s hope the market shrugs it off, we get more margin calls and we see $1,000 soon.

I hope that was profit taking at the end because if someone is trying to manipulate this down they are in for a rude awakening. There are some big money investors in this now, I believe there is enough power to bully manipulators out.

Who else feels a moral obligation to buy a new Tesla?

Funny. You read my mind. Thinking about upgrading from a 2015 Model S to a new S.

My Cybertruck shirt drops tomorrow!

Wish the truck would follow shortly after it.

Gonna do my part and buy a CT shirt. Think of the margins on that $35 shirt.

 

[jhm]

That's pretty normal behavior for a high flyer. Lot's of people with their finger on the sell button near the end of the day and not too many people wanting to catch a falling knife.

We're up 100 bucks for the day so maybe it's time to learn to yodel?

I used to dream of going to yodeling school.

Ford down 10% after hours on big earnings miss.

Ford's loses $1.7 billion in fourth quarter on flawed Explorer relaunch, China trouble

I know I did the lol emoticon, but I will point out that I actually like the Mach-e, and I hope it does well. I also hope they really do develop and deliver an electric F-150 style truck, since it'll grab lots of brand loyal truck buyers.

At the same time, lol @gas.

Whoever did it tried to make it look like the VW short squeeze peak and rapid drop. Not going to work, me thinks.
Already recovering aftermarket, and I do believe that the longs here are much stronger than this.

just bought some shares before the dip today feeling hurt lmao hopefully 1000 this week

NASDAQ hit an all time high today at 9467.974

Last high was set 1/23/2020 at 9402.478

 

[BLSmith2112]

I'd have to imagine the person(s) selling all were in on it together. That was just wayyyy too many sell orders in such an instant of time.

 

[ByeByeJohnny]

Oh well. Unfortunately not in dollars but I became a millionaire yesterday and a double millionaire today. Even with that late drop.

So expecting to be a billionaire in 4,8,16,32,64,128,256,512,1024 about 9 market days I guess.

 

[neezer]

Wow so yesterday and today ... combined volume is ... near 100M?!

 

[phantasms]

It seemed there were several people day trading it today. WarriorTrading pushed it as the stock of the day. I'm just a lucky moron but I expect it to be green again tomorrow.

 

[wipster]

If FSD doesn't pan out all the way then I think that's a sure thing.

Let's hope for both!

 

[humbaba]

How many shares were required to drop the SP that much?

That was almost 2.5M shares dumped at the end there

and in completely unrelated news, Andrew Left said that he was initiating a new short on $TSLA

Coordinated perfectly with this headline

Tesla stock turns negative
MARKETWATCH 3:57 PM ET 2/4/2020

Would such a headline trigger algobot selling?

stinks of manipulation
