They were so excited that it was down to there from 186. I'm sure they are expecting the same weak Q1 this year but that isn't happening. MIC Y will hold the line just fine.

Tesla, TSLA & the Investment World: the Perpetual Investors' Roundtable
- Thread starter AudubonB
- Start date
Today is going to be another wild day for all heavily shorted stocks. In addition to GME still in play, BYND is soaring after Beyond Meat announced a deal with Pepsi.
If the shorts start falling like dominoes, it could be massive for a large basket of stocks.
If the shorts start falling like dominoes, it could be massive for a large basket of stocks.
It was mentioned in this CNBC article from yesterday:
GameStop jumps amid retail frenzy, shares double at one point in wild trading
"GameStop, a brick-and-mortar video game retailer, has been a popular short target on Wall Street. In fact, more than 138% of its float shares had been borrowed and sold short, the single most shorted name in the U.S. stock market, according to FactSet citing the latest filings."
If they do get badly burned on GME and others, how would it affect tsla? Would margin calls force them to cover?
If Elon tweets his usual stock price is too high, I can see a 20% jump as now it's associated with stock split being around the corner.

The SEC going after a bunch of kids having fun with their stimulus checks when they completely ignored all the shenanigans that happened in 2008 and put 0 people in jail when they collapsed the entire economy would be grounds to fire every single person at the SEC IMHO.

Elon is obviously a great fan of my posts
Agree...reason for tesla to advertise the 35k three again, and push faster with the model 2!

Price of item $15.99.
Time opportunity cost of Elon spending five minutes looking for Marvin The Martian Helm on the internet: $1.5 million

So if everything that was logically, but in the extreme, being shorted one week ago is now up huge. Obviously the move is to short, no?
Well I just joined you all. Bought stock today in Tesla.. I will check back on its growth in 10 years.

If the SEC went after WSB then they'd have to acknowledge the ILLEGAL Naked selling (?)

I'm bringing the below video from Sandy Munroe to make a point. There has been a lot of questioning here about if Tesla Fremont is using gigacasting for models beyond the Model Y. IMO this video makes a solid argument that they are ONLY using casting for the Y. They do not appear to have back-ported it over to the Model 3.
Why would they do this? I suspect there are 2 main reasons:
1) They simply don't have enough casting machines to move the 3 over to a casting design. Fremont is pretty tight on space and those machines take up a good bit of room outdoors.
2) Moving over to a cast would mean that they then have to support two different repair pathways for the 3 with components involved in that area. This makes it more difficult (but not impossible) to keep cars moving through their repair network at a reasonable pace.
Some here have argued that Tesla should simply change the dies from one car to another (3, Y, S, and X) on the gigapress and make some production runs for each. If that were practical, it would have already been done, but most likely that kind of swap involves significant downtime and then a "validation run" of the product coming out from the presses. When you have a demand problem, you don't want downtime like this, so you just keep cars like the 3, S, and X going on "what we know works".
Given the above, I highly doubt that any refreshed Model S/X will have casting employed. Not as long as it is still coming out of Fremont.

I was watching an episode of "Long Way up" last night. Its Ewen Mcgregor and Charlie Borman riding electric motorbikes from Tierra del Fuego to Los Angeles. In the episode, Charlie visited the Panama Canal. I looked out of the window at my Model 3 and thought, that car has been along that canal. Nothing to do with anything really but I just liked the thought
It will be way up...but inbetween you will become a TMC addict....talk about manipulating bastages...think about buying islands.
Spend way to much time on everything Tesla, Elon Musk, Spacex.
In short you will be assimilated.
Welcome aboard!
