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

[EV forever]

I just got my 420.69!

 

[Opus BC fan]

and picked up 2 more at 408.97.
My dry powder is gone
I couldn't just spectate this.

 

[humbaba]

I got 20 at $431 and to make our day sadder

"worlds quickest production sedan" -- but I didn't think they were actually being produced just yet? Kinda putting the cart before the horse, doncha think? When Tesla does an official announcement of plaid the claim won't be true anymore.

I wonder if this move is being amplified by weak longs who couldn’t trade for a few days because their banks/brokers had trouble handling the split. They saw the big run up on Monday and couldn’t secure their gains if they wanted to. Now they see those gains slip away and are pulling the trigger.

Pretty sure a lot of them are running for the hills

I haven’t seen that video yet.
Wow, no matter how much love we have for Tesla, that is some insane speed. Have to hand it to them.

I need to stop watching the ticker before I do the same!

 

[corduroy]

Holy crap, what is happening?

 

[UnknownSoldier]

Well that was fun, the post split jump gone in 2 days. Back to whatever it was we were doing before the split I guess?

I'm all out of options at the moment, took my profits Monday and Tuesday. Time to buy some PTON maybe.

 

[woodisgood]

Easy come easy go.

 

[Pezpunk]

picked up 900 shares at $420.

 

[anthonyj]

I doubt this is retail investors. Let’s see if they decide to take this all the way to Mid BB( 377 )

 

[Nocturnal]

Had to buy another 25 at $421. Too much of a sale.

 

[Congo Line]

Reminiscent of Feb 4-5. Picked up some shares at $410 and 420.

 

[M|S|M MYP]

Well played MM's....shook out the robinhooders and weak hands....We'll be back at $500 after SPoon

I hope that claim is short lived.

 

[Nocturnal]

Looks like Zoom is eligible for S&P500 inclusion as well. These guys should take their chance to add Tesla now with this dip.

 

[Artful Dodger]

The only issue with this is that there's no reason for them to hold back on trying to walk it down further now.

In theory, they've lost access to their biggest tool now, short selling due to the 'Uptick Rule' being in effect for the remainder of today and for tomorrow.

However, what we've learned in the past 3 weeks is that the LARGEST weapon that shortzes/hedgies have is to dump large number of options contracts, which in turn invokes automated selling by market maker's.

This can be done instantly, and even if no shares are available to borrow, due to Options Market Maker's exemption to the prohibition against short selling (SEC Regulation SHO).

In effect, hedgies can leverage naked short shares and dump the SP even with the uptick rule in effect. We've seen this during 3 other episodes with a similar setup earlier this year.

Plaid S will break into sub 9 I’d bet.
Lucid air is s different style/category of car imo.probably Very nice.

 

[jpsgoneev]

That was some funny business. Grabbed some @ $420.
