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

[amolina]

Surprisingly low volume this morning, very very tight. Upper BB was at 2121 so lot of room to run. Nobody wants to sell and shorts probably staying away because of the upgrade.

It’s 7 AM EST so it appears that volume is now picking up.

Where do I watch volume for free?

I just dont wanna be working at the service centre. Where I need to know tons about all the different designs and iterations.

That is why they have computers.

I laughed so hard when the guy from Cupertino said he never worries about charging. I can’t drive east out of Arizona and any way I please. Go check the Kayenta Supercharger thread it has been promised for year while Ca got at least 20 more stations. We have to juggle how to leave the state to the north or south. When the Cybertruck starts rolling out of Texas I’ll be smiling large and wondering when they’ll make the trailer to go with it.

YES AND YES to this...my GAWD I WILL BUY ONE ASAP!!!!

There used to be a guy in Huntington Beach California with a van that foretold the end of the world. Everything was to end back in 2012, based on the Mayan calendar. His belief was strong enough that he painted the story on the side of the van.

I haven’t seen that van in years.

So, maybe the Mayan calendar applied especially to his van but nothing else?

CNBC, works on my computers and ipad, but no volume on cell phone.

How to know you are rich.

When you could sell all your stocks and put it in a money market account paying 0.25 % and live comfortably off the interest.
THAT'S when you retire from the market.

 

[scaesare]

You can be certain it would look nothing like that - from an 'engineering for efficiency and range' perspective, everything about it is inelegant and "'wrong'.

Looks like a nice horse trailer...

 

[jw934]

Any theories out there on why? Does not make any sense to me

I recall one day recently a large purchase of OTM (about $60 above then current share price) weekly call was followed on Friday (or was it Thursday) with price movement above that strike. End result would be the calls being filled but without the huge share price rise if same quantity of shares were acquired in the open market. Can't recall the details so may have some facts wrong. Just a theory anyway.

“VW... 2025...” :facepalm:

I wonder if Bill will be present at Battery Day. /s

No wonder Elon calls Bill Gates underwhelming

Most of the broker apps should give you that info. I use TD. Also can get it here. The Nasdaq quotes are delayed by 15 mins but volume is real time.

The habit is too ingrained... and the taxes would be killer!

There are 51 000 call options between 2090 and 2110, nearly all appeared this week. Have not seen this amount of calls in quite some time.

Any theories out there on why? Does not make any sense to me

Some of these options could be spreads. It's possible that it's a straddle or iron condor around $2100.

The open interest is almost too large for there not to be some sort of massive spread in there.

 

[Knightshade]

Plus silicon nanotube anode battery, perhaps..?

Maybe? But from my reading the only place they're in practical use now is one very expensive model of large passenger jet, and they're not remotely cheap based on very very recent comments from a pretty well known battery researcher (who worked with maxwell).... so MAYBE they found a way to get em cheap enough to go in a $140,000 Plaid S, or a 250k roadster, but I wouldn't expect to see em in the mainstream models for a few more years at least.

Yeah but...Standard oil was broken up into many companies yes, but Esso (Exxon) and Mobile (I didn't remember the name until I looked it up) became dominant players globally and merged again into Exxon Mobile. I think this is the closest we can get to "Standard Oil".

Chevron was another one (Standard Oil of CA) and actually was in the Dow before Exxon/Esso/Standard of NJ....though they dropped out for a few years in the 20s before coming back- but they're still in the dow now while Exxon is leaving.

Yeps. The EMD (Early Morning Dip).

As opposed to the EPMD:

I see the head's still turnin' of my so-called friends
They smile in my face - behind my back they talk trash
Mad and stuff - because they don't have cash

I do hope not, at this rate, it'll take me another 3 years of Hodling to get to that.. and I was hoping to quit work shortly after Q3 and just wing it!

 

[Nocturnal]

So we all know teslaq snoops here. Is there a teslaq version of tmc that we could snoop on?

Find your nearest bridge or overpass.

I'm pulling in like 500x returns annually right now. Why should I expect .25% in retirement? Surely I can get a meager 10x. (planning on 5% withdraw rate myself)

Hey All, been lurking for a few weeks, my first post. Shareholder for slightly over an year and waiting for the CyberTruck. Some pretty incredible information in this thread, glad I found it but also wish I found it earlier.

Busy weekend coming up for Elon with Neuralink Webcast on Friday, another Starlink launch over the weekend and TSLA stock split on Monday (probably open $420.69).

YOU! Hit the MAGIC year.
