Meanwhile over in $TSLAQ world preparations are being made to send Cathy Woods to jail for supposedly her ‘pump and dump’ strategy.

It would be nice if you didn't have to keep your finances a secret from everyone, but this is the world we live in. You guys know more about my TSLA than anyone in my family save my parents, which is pretty crazy when you think about it.

Jeeezus. These guys are a macro Corona Virus. They just refuse to die out.

Yes but we are a stock forum no? You should go to wallstreetbet subreddit and look at their terminology for "autists". They don't take themselves very seriously hence my post shouldn't be taken seriously either.

Whenever I want a break from this forum (which isn’t often lately), I like checking out wallstreetbets. Some hilarious posts over there.

Truly some next level delusion.

Whether or not there is a shortage (ok probably there is), if enough major manufacturers can't get batteries to sell cars, they could go to the EU and ask for reduced penalties claiming it was out of their control to do anything to meet the demand.

They could. Whether or not that works remains to be seen. Do not see why they could not be challenged for their inability to engage in basic logistics and supply and demand on something they were supposed to have been ramping up for the past ten years according to their own press releases. We shall see.

Q1 F'20 is going to be a bloodbath for OEM. Tesla will be dragged down initially until MM realize that Tesla is a different breed of auto manufacturer...and they also sell batteries? Really. The discrepancy will become crystal clear by end of Q1 or end of Q2 a the latest.

Markets and stocks are at a top and a sell off is likely. That old maxim "sell in May and go away" may very well apply in 2020, however there is so much good news coming for Tesla for the remainder of the year, I'm not sitting this summer out. TSLA may be one of the few safe havens beyond gold, silver and cash.

AAPL is 8.25X TSLA. My thinking is that if Apple ceases to exist tomorrow there will be little to no effect, so what if one needs to use a Samsung or LG or even a Blackberry (still have mine). If Tesla ceases to exist tomorrow, all the OEM will immediately scrap all their EVs claiming nobody wants them, and battery, energy storage and solar technology, sustainable transportation and self driving would be set back by twenty or more years, resulting in more than hundreds if not hundreds of millions of premature or outright deaths and effectively ensuring our extinction on this third rock from the sun. Is Tesla overvalued? My thinking is TSLA should be 8.25X AAPL.

My wife and I have not told anyone that we have TSLA. I talk to my friends and family all the time about Tesla, but never TSLA, as I want to keep my friends and family relationships. This is our little secret and it serves us well.

Acronym alert: X means times

I like the way you think.

Wow, the cybertruck is such a sensational project that it's just becoming even MORE viral today vs when it was first revealed.

Check out Hacksmith (8 million subs) build of the 1/2 scale cybertruck. No car on earth gets this much coverage!

Got to love that free marketing & publicity ; )

OK, place your bets: Who will create the first marketable microbrew on Mars, strictly from ingredients grown on Mars?

Hopefully I'll still be around to buy some!

I'd be happy if there is some Martian microbe that can assist in fermentation.

You can only withdraw 50k at a time from Robinhood? Wtf is this

go to a real broker!

 

[Boomer19]

Random question:

I read in this forum that setting a high limit sell price blocks the broker from lending our shares to shorties. Is this a SEC rule? Does this really work?

If the new TSLA investors and institutions are thinking long term we can technically make it very difficult for shorties to borrow shares.

Apologies if this has been posted already but I didn't see it if it was. The most recent drone video from Giga Berlin (Friday mid afternoon German time) . Lots of progress visible.

Ehm.... I think they lost themselves their court case with that piece of evidence from the tweet. Looks to me like most of ARK's shares were sold right before she went on CNBC, not after.

The popular new "Tesmanian" blog is the source of certain recent rumors regarding LiFePO4 batteries sourced via CATL in China. In a recent blog post, Tesmanian walks back some of these early claims as unsupported:

Tesla Battery Day May Introduce Next-Gen Cobalt Free Non-LFP Cell Hints China | Tesmanian

"Many have speculated and made theories about Tesla’s strategy for its China-made Model 3 SR+ based on the assumption that the EV automaker was planning to use CATL’s prismatic LFP cells. However, these speculations might have been wrong, if Tesla China's recent social media response is accurate."​

Importantly, this blog post presents new information posted recently on Social Media by Tesla China which refutes some of the assumptions about the use of LiFePO4 batteries for MIC Model 3:

Recall, Elon made these brief comments about CATL bty modules for MIC Model 3 during his Jan 4, 2020 interview with 'Third Row Podcast' (Director's Cut via YouTube).

I recommend caution until we know more about Tesla's plans, after 'Battery Day'.

Cheers!
