Still waiting for them to offer it here. Yes, my house is about 10 miles away from GF2 and I can't get Tesla solar roof or panels here.From Feb 2020:
Who else feels a moral obligation to buy some Tesla solar panels or roof?
Just cancelled my GTC'ish orders - will be adding new ones post split. Just in case. Probably not necessary but just to be safe. My broker (Nordnet) only allows share prices 20% or so above current. And only 2 months duration. So I have to be vigilant and adjust upwards frequently.
To celebrate the 2k share price we've just had a premium piece of meat and a nice bottle of red. Both cost less than a post split share so not that much over the top.
Apart from that I am a longish long who don't understand much about the perils of being short.
I just wish the expression naked short hadn't entered my mind. The images flashing in my mind are not very decent.
And I just realized I had a 10-bagger back in the 1800's. Another reason to celebrate with a nice bottle.

Over in Shanghai Jason Yang released a new video. Buildings look more completed on the outside. And the number of Model 3's ready for shipping is growing.And is there another building or a parking lot being planned to the north of the most recent building? The low one close to the triangular one?
Not yet...you woke up too early...back to bed nowIs it Monday morning yet?
Yep I'm basically one of Fidelity's "dead" clients been with them since the 80's. I was a Peter Lynch fan. Most of my investments are tech from the early 90's rode right through the bubble without noticing. Still hold CSCO, MSFT, Intel from back then. Finally dumped my HP stocks last year for some more TSLA. I sold a few things along the way but not too much. I was pretty much a hands off investor for 25 yrs with just the occasional check in and pruning. Honestly I was just lazy and also held a lot of mutual funds too. The system did work pretty well...and did you have the same U.S. Broker during that time? Not a very diverse sample set on which to base a conclusion.
I love that a family sedan is constantly set up against purpose-built sports cars and muscle cars!
Got a reference for your U.K. Sep 3rd for the issue of dividend stocks? And that is NOT what the OP wrote from his Broker: they said 'they don't know exactly when' the dividend shares will be issued. This is a HUGE red flag.
Details (last updated 14 Aug 2020)
Tesla Inc has announced that it will carry out a 5 for 1 split of its shares, effective at the open of trading on NASDAQ on 31 August 2020. The split will be completed by giving you a bonus 4 shares in addition to each share you hold at close of business on 28 August, thereby increasing your holding by 5 times.
The price of Tesla Inc shares will adjust to take the split into account as soon as the market opens on 31 August. We expect the share price to be approximately 20% of what it was the day before. This means you’ll have more shares but at a lower price. We don’t expect the overall value of your holding to be affected. The company is conducting the split to reduce the share price to a more accessible level.
It’s expected that the new shares will be issued by 3 September, but this can’t be guaranteed. The new shares will be credited to your portfolio once we’ve been issued with them. Please note that from market open on 31 August, until the shares are credited to you, your holding will show a value of only 20% of its real worth. This will correct itself as soon as the new shares are added to your portfolio. If you sell your shares at any point during this period please bear in mind you are effectively only selling a fifth of your entitled holding and will still get the bonus shares credited shortly after.
Meanwhile TSLA will be trading at ~1/5th it's SP , and every UK stockholder would be denied access to 80% of their rightfully owned TSLA equity from Aug 31 to Sep 2nd.
What happens if a corporate event occurs during those 3 days, or S&P announces after-hrs on Aug 28th, but UK shareholders can only trade 20% of their equity for the next 3 days? Or more, depending on an unspecified what?
Do you think that's a libel lawsuit, or a breech of trust lawsuit? It's going to take more than a snippy blog post to right that wrong. There is huge exposure to liability here.
It's the magic of non-recourse local loans (GF3/Shanghai), and Eurozone carbon offsets from FIAT (GF4/Berlin).Every time I watch these GF construction videos, now on three continents simultaneously, I ponder on how amazing it is that Tesla’s capex is not exploding.
Not necessarily. I mean, it says this is his second time; how'd he not die the first time, I'm pondering?

Can we get something above the 'Love' rating? Congratulations Dan. You and your wife are going to love to go for a drive soon. Over two years since I bought mine and I still try to find excuses to go somewhere.Thanks a million, literally, to this forum. I’m happy to say this week I’ve joined the Teslanaire club. Started buying the stock in early 2018 after reading Ashley Vance’s biography about Elon, recognized his vision was the right one for doing something constructive to address climate change (by trade, I’m a federal scientist that studies climate effects on endangered species), luckily discovered this discussion board in mid 2018, and went all-in over the next year as I learned everything about Tesla from reading your posts 20-30 minutes a day, everyday. I’ve learned more about investing from this hive mind in the last 2 years than the previous 18 going it alone. My portfolio and prospects for an early retirement and doing good for my family and friends have swollen beyond my wildest dreams and life going forward is irrevocably altered regardless of how the stock may fluctuate over the next decade or more that I continue to hold it. In particular, my thanks for wealth wisdom & technical insights over the last few years to: Neroden, FactChecking, StealthP3D, The Accountant, Reflex Funds, KarenRei & dozens of others that contribute nuggets of gold to this collective.
My family still doesn’t own or drive the cars but unbeknownst to the wife, she’ll find a M3 parked in the garage for her next xmas morning, which’ll be joined by my Cybertruck a few years later. We went solar on our new house several months ago and look forward to driving exclusively on sunpower in the years ahead. We didn’t start out as a wealthy family, and the thought never crossed my mind of owning Teslas a few years ago when I started buying the stock, but it’s just the next logical thing to do. Millions of other families will reach that same conclusion in the years ahead and the fossil fuel era will pass into history as that process reaches its culmination. I just hope that Elon’s brilliant plan and execution of the plan have come soon enough to avoid catastrophic climate consequences later this century—that part of the story is yet unknown and to be written. But at least now we have a fighting chance & we'll have some fun while in the fight! Thanks Elon, thanks TMC. Dan
I see your point. I thought that having a goodly percentage of shares locked up would create more stability because any fiddling with phantom shares would show up more (assumes phantom shares are a significant part of the volatility) so there would be less inclination to create them.Why do you think volatility will be reduced? I'm not sure it will. In fact, it may even increase as a much bigger percentage of the float will be locked up in S&P 500 index funds, drastically reducing the number of shares available for daily trading. Lower liquidity tends to exaggerate stock movements (well, that's the theory).
Any shares sold next week will include transfer of the other 4 shares and will be sold as if they were 1 share.Got a reference for your U.K. Sep 3rd for the issue of dividend stocks?

Brokers and banks always have lots of fine print in their agreements with their customers. Banks don't have to give you your money in a timely fashion if they don't feel like it. Brokers don't have to honor your attempted trades in a timely fashion either. When everything is calm and normal things generally happen in a reasonable way. But if things are chaotic, or your particular institution is having its own troubles, then they can certainly screw you with no legal consequences. To some degree anyway. Certainly delays of a day or several are within the bounds of the legal and possible.
This is true in the US. I assume it's at least as bad in other places, but I don't know.
