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

[SMAlset]

Updated my post above but Newsom expects they can open next week. Ah another question. This on relocation and the Western State pack and companies relocating to states where health concerns are different. Newsom is talking about Elon and Tesla. He feels we can work thru issues with County and Tesla in the next week.

and another question saying Tesla opened this morning and did he speak with Elon. He says he’s not aware of a reopening today. Says he spoke with him (or them?) a few days ago. Great....audio cut out in broadcast and don’t know what was said. Interesting time for audio to cut out!

one more Tesla question. Asking about sanctioning given tons of cars are in parking lot. He says when he stepped up to the podium he hadn’t heard that. Basically said he will be checking in with County.

that was last question. He’s done.

Tesla’s leaving the factory in Fremont on back of car carriers. Employee lot full, especially compared to Friday morning at this time. Company hasn’t confirmed whether manufacturing has ramped back up in defiance of Alameda County shelter in place order. #Tesla

"F*ck Alameda County"

lol, it's sad that Gavin Newsom doesn't understand his own orders regarding critical infrastructure.

The whole reopening as it relates to retail manufacturing and logistics is SEPARATE from critical infrastructure. That's why it seems so odd to specify "retail manufacturing" and "logistics" in general.

Newsome says state "handsomely" supports Tesla (expression bigtime).
Ya, Texas would too. He's totally behing the county. Maybe if he gives in there, he has a dozen other counties wanting to also jump schedule.

Somebody is buying big time.

Does the County do a briefing? That might be more interesting to listen to than Newsom’s. So do we believe no one told him by noon that Tesla had reopened today??

He played it pretty well politically. He didn't want to slam the county, but at the same time, he wants Tesla to stay for "decades" and provided high praises for the company.

Thirty percent might mean 30% of each shift--that's actually 60% of employees.

That's... not how math works.

Lot is full of model 3 now. David Zhao on Twitter

!Holy frisky rabbits!

That factory is a money-minting machine!

The problem is that trade unions are really just like professional executives. Both focus only on the short term and what they can get this quarter rather than the long term health of the company. Neither actually protect the workers. Executives because Wall Street rewards layoffs and Unions because a closed business or a business that moves out of the country/state/county/city means no more job.

Principal–agent problem - Wikipedia

It's a problem that shows up everywhere you look: Alameda County vs Tesla, for example. The agents are the politicians and appointed officials, while the principals are the citizens. Do the agents always further the best interests of the principals?

It's like "not a flamethrower". Now is "not a open factory".. by the time Newsom realize.. it's next week.

 

[TheGrimSweeper]

It's over guys. Factory is open. County is not going to do anything to stop it at this point.

Party poopers showed up

 

[StarFoxisDown!]

Such a joke how any buying volume that results in a 1% or greater swing upwards within 'X' amount of time gets capped instantly. This type of manipulation has been back in full force, pretty much since the week or two before Q1 P/D numbers. There's pretty much has to be high buying volume that stays very consistent to break it.

Worn with investing, agreed, otherwise, blue.

Employee’s holding some ownership is the best corporate path imo.

Hush, you dirty communist. Worker ownership of the means of production is straight out of Marx.

(Kidding on the first part, not the second.)
