I can visualise the Kolodny CNBS article already: "Trouble for Tesla in Q3 as for the second successive month, official August sales and production numbers reveal that the embattled car manufacturer has once again been forced to ship cars as far afield as Europe. As Chinese demand seemingly craters, we spoke to people familiar with the matter who expressed their fears for the company's future"
And so on...

After the article...
Chip shortage: Toyota to cut global production by 40%
The world's biggest carmaker will cut output in September, while VW warns it may have to make further cuts.www.bbc.com
View attachment 698566
And which US made company is navigating this chip shortage the best? The one that was not invited to the EV party
Compared to Renault, Sony, and Apple, I love how wonderfully adaptive Tesla's response is.
While others say, "Aw, shucks, looks like we won't be able to bring as much product to market," Tesla is literally, "Let's rewrite code so we can make better use of alternative chips." This is why Tesla deserves to be the #1 corporation in the world.
If the cars are robots, the car can drive to the correct location and dock with the charger. The charger just needs a little compliance to accommodate misalignment from suspension travel. There is plenty of room in the diffuser area, under the rear bumper, of all Teslas to install a funnel shaped charge inlet. This method could require less maintenance than the current supercharger network. The charger is a passive, but accommodating, dock.Moveable chargers (done well) solve several problem that fixed chargers cannot. There is nothing wrong with fixed chargers but they lack flexibility and they require hard wired installs (again inflexible).
Those of us a little more seasoned can remember the days of driving an ICE vehicle into a gas station and hopping out with instrucitons to fill 'er up to the pump attendant and then wandering off to get a snack. Since then things have gotten more complicated on various levels.
Autonomous chargers can be almost anywhere and dynamically adapt to requirements. In different forms they can be at your office lot in the morning and at your grocery store in the afternoon. They can move to supplement the superchargers during high utilization times like holidays or seasonal needs like seasonal resorts. They can charge in the middle of the night at apartments. They can schedule their own service and provide additional services beyond simple charging.
The theme is to optimize the EV to deliver safe mobility while augmenting utility with service robots. Build or move features into the robots vs the vehicles. The robots will evolve more easily and quickly and optimize benefits.
Imagine driving into a Disney lot and having R2D2 appear and charge your vehicle just as one example. Folks obviously more gifted that me should have fun developing this technology. The battery is done, vision is solved, Dojo is on the horizon so now is the time to extend autonomous mobility into other useful tasks. YMMV

We know well that Europe sales don't start until month 2 & 3 of the quarter due to the wave and shipping times.
But TSLAQ never learns.
That's Job from Arrested Development in the pic above. Here is a message from his brother Michael:
Corporations train their executives with an Excuse 101 class. That is what you are seeing here. Corporations use the product of this class to feed, eventually, Wall Street. A close kin to PR, it is bread and butter for companies that teach and hire based on Good Excuses.

Sure, Tesla can execute, but can they they sandbag and deliver a really good excuse? That's what Wall Street is looking to see.
Here is Hyundai:
Even though the chaebol is called Hyundai Motor Group it has a gigantic range of businesses.
Even as a joke this one is a trifle weird.
Boston Dynamics is a Group investment
With Maglev trains, home automation, steel production, financial services (including one of Korea's large credit card portfolios)...
and a fair number of robotics investments, one of which is Boston Dynamics.
Thinking of them as a 'car company' is odd, despite the name.

What's ironic is just 2 days ago...this clown was begging for an invite.
I don't know. When I was offered the class, I think titled "How to communicate to upper management," I was appalled that it seemed to be about providing excuses that have legs to go even higher. I did not take the class, as I try to learn only from people who have demonstrated results, and excuse competence seemed to be counter to what John Wooden learned from his father and taught others: "Don't whine, complain, or [make excuses] alibi." I consider 10 NCAA basketball championships demonstrated results.
Why would one make the excuse route any easier by training excuse proficiency?
I don't know how trained Tesla is on excuse making.

That image of gordo, clearly at home, but wearing suspenders like he is in the original 'wall street' movie just shows him for what he is. Someone desperately role-playing as a big shot trader, but clearly terrible at it, and completely unemployable. Its sad. He has the clothes for the job (40 years too late) but not the IQ.
I don't think you necessarily want the stock to be testing it's 200 DMA again .......which it's about to do, on the day of AI Day when a sell off could happen tomorrow (doesn't matter how illogical the sell off is)
I was just going to reply to my previous post with chastisement.
A pox upon me for a clumsy lout.
It's possible that Boston Dynamics could be spun out and Tesla acquires them, partly for the talent, and partly for the technology. Boston Dynamics was originally purchased by Google and later sold off.
"Beyond the fleet" could mean types of vehicles that aren't currently in production such as a delivery van. eg a fully autonomous van that delivers to your house with a robot that takes it to your door.
Guess we'll find out in a few hours.

And that's why you don't use just one month to project out the whole quarter!
