Ok if this is a stock split dividend, does it have any implications tax-wise for tesla shareholders?
credit to Knightshade, and probably should put this in FAQ now:
https://taxmap.irs.gov/taxmap2016/pubs/p550-006.htm
"Generally, stock dividends and stock rights are not taxable to you, and you do not report them on your return."
It lists exceptions right below that but none would apply here
Further-
https://taxmap.irs.gov/taxmap2016/pubs/p550-026.htm#en_us_publink100010540
"The holding period for new stock you received as a nontaxable stock dividend begins on the same day as the holding period of the old stock."
