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

[TheTalkingMule]

I feel like this is the point in the day where certain people on this board buy options with the SP at $733, then TSLA snaps back up in the afternoon to meet the macros and they sell with SP at $762.

Is this the new game or are people still primarily trading the MMD.

 

[JusRelax]

It appears we are getting moved down while Nasdaq is going up. New Shorts coming in? Or are they setting up for Friday options

To add to this, today so far has been a relatively light volume day. Aren't light volume days ripe for manipulation?

Cmon guys, this must have been the most sarcastic thing I've ever posted in my 11 years as a member on this forum! lol. (Not to mention that I posted it when TSLA was down 0.04%!) Was Debbie Downer not a big giveaway? I mean, I didn't even think the /s was needed, but maybe I should be more careful in the future? hehe.

I immediately sensed the sarcasm.

Lighten up Francis(es)!

Wait, then what was I doing all this homework for? You're telling me this isn't going to be on the test?

I assumed that you KarenRei would probably be teaching it!

(or at least a substitute teacher)

Wait times for all 3 Tesla vehicles down to 2-4 weeks. That’s a big change from just a few weeks ago....IIRC, the 3 was at 6-8 weeks. There are quite a few new inventory vehicles available as well.

Of course there are several possible explanations, however I’m preparing myself for lower-than-expected deliveries for Q1. NOT an advice

 

[Prunesquallor]

Just curious. What does Tesla charge for a replacement rear bumper?

Front facia was $1000 including labor.

 

[StealthP3D]

If more people are HODLing and never (..) sell, the float gets smaller.
That would make it easier, because less shares needed, to influence SP.
So, if almost all shareholders dont trade, just hold, it takes just a few shareholders to move
SP down, thereby creating losses (OK, on paper) for those who hold.

What am I missing here?
StealthPD?

It doesn't really work that way. The share price is determined by the balance of buyers and sellers, not how many people are holding shares tight. That can only create upward price pressure. Because (presumably) those shares would only become available at a higher price.

But I'm not sure what you are getting at here.

Still 5-8 weeks in Canada. Could be change in delivery priority.

Maybe you haven't been paying attention but it's normal for wait times to decrease in the US at the end of the quarter. It's what management has termed "the wave". Domestic deliveries are filled at the end of the quarter with cars fresh off the production lines. The longer wait times earlier in the quarter are due to earlier production being slated for ships (so they too can be delivered overseas by the end of the quarter).

Make sense?

If they are taking questions I'm going to ask them why they killed their EV program in the 90s.

Are you my legacy Tesla killer??

5-8 weeks? I see 6-12 weeks for Canada. Either way... Q2.

Mexico - also North America - is out to June:

Only 4 weeks left this quarter. Only the US can make new custom orders.

"we intend to remain the industry leader" -lol wut? just heard at the EV day of GM. Do they actually think thats true?

 

[wipster]

Any chance this relatively sucky TSLA stock today is due to the upcoming GM EV day? I dont expect them to achieve much, or even promise much, but maybe enough people have bought into the 'COMPETITION IS COMING' hype for it to make people at least delay a TSLA buy until they see what GM have?

For some reason I have David Byrne singing "Tesla killer, qu'est-ce que c'est, ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha..." running through my mind.
