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

[gabeincal]

With TMC's name on Bloomberg now, have you, 'old timers' and mods given a thought of taking this thread private?

I'm not quite sure of the implications either way, but occurred to me that this valuable thread might become Twitter / WSB...

 

[generalenthu]

Hmmm? I'm seeing 100,000.

Lots of 100 shares each

 

[FrankSG]

If my understanding from Rob Maurer is correct, this seemingly lower "offline" trade happened within 10 min of the ones around it that showed up per the rules (if followed).

Actually, they have to be reported within 10 seconds.

 

[FrankSG]

Lots of 100 shares each

It's 100k. Not sure why it says size 23x100 at the top. The trades on this tape are definitely not *100.

That makes no sense. You are saying that the market for a short-seller (or a naked short-seller) is a different market than that of a regular seller. That is not my understanding. A sell is a sell.

No. I'm saying that they would have to provide the actual shares, which they can't do nakedly to an institution because the institution would register them and the seller would have to replace them (for the seller's account). They wouldn't be able to naked short in the same way they do for retail investors where they can keep the virtual shares going for a very long time (until the next split). Not being an expert, I'm probably not saying this very well.

Ooh, 130-share owner here - I would hate getting locked out from you guys!

Y'all are going to love this. If a pause occurs just before close, the Cross can be extended if there is an imbalance up until 5pm.

This is an old document though.

Oh *sugar*. So it is possible to punt the whole thing? Amazing. Effectively that would cancel S&P inclusion on Friday since there won't be an official closing price? Wow.

Nasdaq regulators secretly conferred whether to lift TSLA's +10% rally circuit breaker, to allow more liquidity today. Presumably they were worried about an index squeeze halting the stock and amplifying the squeeze.

The huge red flag there? "Said someone familiar with the matter."

This is how "news" is simply made up to suit someone's agenda.

I think that is closing the barn door after the horse is out. 5 years ago this thread was about deep analysis and long term investing. Seems to me this thread is now mostly about options and short term. I also see many more off-the-cuff thoughts and less deep analysis with spreadsheets.

It is still a valuable resource but I do think some has been lost with the changing of the crowd over time. That happens with all forum communities. Normal progression.

 

[HG Wells]

Its GOIN RED !

 

[MTL_HABS1909]

Wow we’re going red aren’t we?

Not really sure why @mejojo and @MP3Mike gave me a disagree for this. It was extremely obvious....

 

[Model S M.D.]

Anybody else ask Santa for green candles this year?

Took the day off...feel like I’m watching history...the financial equivalent of the first SpaceX launch and landing on that barge in the ocean.

Are you suggesting keeping the thread from public eyes, or just limiting who can actually post?

 

[Opus BC fan]

Oh, the humanity!

[chrsk]

Looks like will pas 40 millions in the two first hours... Thats some volume!

 

[jhm]

 

[StealthP3D]

That happens when shares in 500 other stocks worth $80 billion have to be sold to make place for TSLA.

This is the first day since the listing in 2010 where macros follow TSLA, instead of the other way around. Hopefully there will be many more when it becomes the world's most valuable stock.

I guess I'm OK with the other stocks following TSLA from now on... as long as they remain respectful and don't try to follow too closely.

still not extreme....

 

[chrsk]

still not extreme....

Indeed, and guaranteed a massive amount of day trading.

 

[Big Time]

I think all the Twitter noobs would have a hard time finding this thread on the website before giving up Hope we don’t washed out.

Side note: Macros are god awful, Congress is awful, Tesla kicks ass.

The guy on Bloomberg video is inspiring to HODL. Good for him!
