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

[ByeByeJohnny]

In case anyone is interested, MAX PAIN for friday is at 815.
Stock Option Max Pain

Won't there be more PAIN if the stock keeps going up? I can't figure out why it's not called MIN PAIN? Serious question.

 

[JusRelax]

I like that reminder. TSLA shares are a finite resource.

If it's this good boosting them into orbit, what do we get for a successful de-orbit and re-entry?

Elon commented that a good case could be made that the re-entry is the more risky operation. But that should be a few weeks off.

Unfortunately, I don't think that the de-orbit and re-entry will get as many views. I hope I'm wrong though!

And 900 in aftermarket

 

[lukex4]

Today ranks # 6 in All Time High "Closing Price"
(closing price high not intra-day)

Time to update that table again...

 

[Curt Renz]

That was fun! Let’s do it again tomorrow!

Cue the William Tell Overture...

I feel like I need a cigarette and I don’t even smoke.

And 900 in aftermarket

 

[heltok]

$898 close is great, 900 after market and should be secured tomorrow and get a new ATH later this week, 5% more to go before we overtake Toyota! If we are not above $1000 by battery day, then we will be after... Now comes the fun part!

Here are shots from last year's batter day, for those that missed it:

I hope this year's batter day is more like this:

And 900 in aftermarket

I'm ready to call this a V-shaped recovery.

 

[elasalle]

Looks like TSLA took off and wants to dock at 900

AH - Docking Successfull

Someone who knows more about technical analysis correct me if I'm wrong, but the TSLA chart as of today seems to fit the bill for this 'high-tight-flag' pattern: Smart Chart Reading: High Tight Flag Can Deliver Skyscraper-Sized Gains

 

[TheTalkingMule]

Just checked and max pain Friday is forty bazillion.

 

[Silentk]

Tell me about it. I'm getting really pissed that I didn't sell my two kids and mortgage my wife to get some extra shares a long time ago. But, er, I love them.

How would one in theory go about mortgaging a wife to buy TSLA shares?

... asking for a friend

Allow me to introduce you to my mortgage banker.

A big move towards TM by TSLA.

A very strong day for the sector led by TSLA except the German 3 were body-slammed.

Don't know. But it will work better if you're a Mormon.

So... does anyone have a theory for what is going on today?

People finally catching up to what Chamath said 13 months ago (watch at least the first minute):

 

[MaChiMiB]

I hope you guys now have some time for the long term stuff:
Raw material supply chains for battery production!

EV Stock Channel (IMO underrated youtube channel) released two battery videos in the last two weeks. Each featured a lithium supply chain analyst/expert.
Main takeaway: You need 5 to 7 years to get a new lithium mine running. Tesla needs a lot of lithium for one TWh Factory, way more than what is available today (factor 2 or 3). But Elon and the Tesla guys are very good a long term planing. Now I'm even more excited about battery day; over 900(0)!

Those interviews are lengthy, but if you want to understand why other OEM won't have the batteries to compete at scale with Tesla, this here is IMO the #1 reason. (This will kill them when they finally want (are forced) to go all EV).

Some advice for:
- those that are new to investing in TSLA
- the faint of heart
- clueless people/TSLAQ

"Don't sell."

You're welcome.

 

[Tslynk67]

Oh yeah. The conversion from "old man" to "distinguished old man"...

I'm already missing "The Beard"

Yeah, you, and all your ilk, are f*cked!
