Was encouraging to see TSLA strength during market dips. Shorts had 1 successful push down late in day but bulls bought the dip in short order. Will be an interesting week next week w lots of 600c being bought for 4/17

Personally I think it's because a lot of folks aren't at their desks looking at their screens at work...More than half an hour without any posts?
Great job mods, great job!
...they areI'm a Tesla fan and I've reserved a Cybertruck. I've even had a Model S experience on the Autobahn and it ruined ICE vehicles for me. I would never short the stock and money aside, I very much want to see the company be successful.
That being said, I have a real problem investing in the stock.
Tesla is going to have to manufacture and sell some cars to be a going concern business - right? US manufacturing is shuttered, the Chinese factory is running, but they are building cars that are not being purchased, and we really don't know how vehicles are going to sell in the US after we're past this pandemic. It's not unreasonable to believe that this isn't just a Q2 problem. Telsa is already trying to preserve as much capital as possible.
I understand that the overall cost of ownership for a Tesla vehicle is less than a comparable ICE vehicle, but the fact remains that the initial cost of Tesla vehicles are very much in the luxury segment. Luxury vehicles do not fair well during recessions. Anyone who went car shopping after the recession of 2008 will remember the difficulty car manufacturers had selling new cars. We also saw a decrease in the discounted value of pre-owned vehicles as the populace shopped for affordable transportation. Car manufacturers had to offer discounted financing in order to compete with existing used inventory.
Tesla was extremely fortunate to raise capital prior to the pandemic. I think the product is fantastic, but Tesla is also going to need customers to survive this. I feel like it's premature to be banking on orders that may not materialize.
There's an earnings call this month (4/22) where they'll have to share some real guidance on production and sales. That will offer investors some transparency. I don't want to be holding a Tesla position on that day.
The stock ended at $573 today... I'll send myself a reminder to check on 4/23 to see how accurate I am. I hope I'm wrong!

Chinese factory is running, but they are building cars that are not being purchased...
I’m thinking the opposite. If it looks like around that time that the virus is more under control and Tesla can start back up on May 1st then Elon can give a rosy looking guidance. Considering other members have pointed out that Tesla could sell 100,000 cars in Q2 then a guidance of that would definitely shoot the stock up. Then there is battery investor day in May. I think I want to be mostly all in before that because who knows what might be unleashed.I'm a Tesla fan and I've reserved a Cybertruck.

sounds bitter. are they delayed on restarting their refining? I can't imagine all this economic uncertainty helps them. Molycorp already went bankrupt in 2017.James Litinsky of MP Materials was just on CNBC. He just said that they're receiving large subsidies from
the US government, but are buying "rare earth magnets etc." from Chinese mines.
(Therefore his U.S. mining company would do better if Tesla were buying from them, of course)
What tax subsidies is Tesla getting? I hope he's not referring to ZEV credits which isn't a federal thing. And AFAIK a ZEV credit is worth nothing until you sell it, at whatever price you can get for it.
He sounded like someone repeating grumpy talking points about unfair government subsidies (the BEV auto manufacturers of course being last in line for subsidies, behind ICE/fossil fuel companies).
