The context is different from what I’m about to write, but the relevance is the same.
It used to be a maxim effectively confined to….ah, shall we say, the Country Club Set…I would be so disappointed in “all” of you were the following to be broadening its reach:
Rags to Riches to Rags in three generations.
I commiserate with you….but I still find that a delicious juxtaposition

I just ranted about MM shenanigans and being a bit gun-shy about next week, then turned around and started buying calls like it was Black Friday at Walmart! What on earth is wrong with me?I resemble that comment.
If history of my behavior is any guide, we'll see a deeper drop next week that I should have waited on(because I literally described it's likelihood). Fortunately I have the cash to double down if necessary, and I will.
My neighbor says his Y is ready but he is not picking it up because he is waiting for the budget to pass. '$10k difference!' Hope they deliver it to somebody else.

Hope your neighbor enjoys going to the back of the line and picking up his Y sometime next year

Are you a speculator or an investor? If the former, timing is everything, if the latter, time in the market beats trying to time the market.
If you are lucky you will have both.

I also mis-timed my ARKG entry earlier this year. Whatever. HODL. At least all my recent TSLA lots are still green.

I was thinking when the EV credit legislation passes (probably Oct but won't take affect until Jan 1st), that Tesla would probably need to temporarily drop the price by like 2-3k of the 3/Y to incentivize enough current reservation/order holders to take delivery. But demand is so high that now I think there would probably be enough people willing to get their 3/Y earlier and forgo getting the ev credit. I also expect Tesla to announce a 2-3k price hike when the EV credit does pass and state that if you're willing to take delivery before end of the year, new orders would get their 3/Y at the pre-price hike price.
Also..... when Q3 P/D numbers come out and if Fremont had normal production rates like in Q2 or even expands a bit (because of MIC battery pack SR 3's), then the whole narrative that each time delivery times for new orders get extended is because of supply shortages.....needs to die. We're just at an inflection point of demand.
Even when Giga Texas get's up to some decent volume, the EV tax credit is going to cause so much demand that I wouldn't be surprised if 3/Y are sold out for 2022 by March or April, especially if Tesla does end up getting 10k of the credit

Seems like the dangling rebate/credit should be a bigger deal to Tesla sales. Somehow it is not. They are not exactly helping with the uncertainty.
When delivery times for new orders are 6 months out......plenty of customers will to taking their orders now and forego the ev credit.
I don’t intend to get a model 3. But if there was a $10k rebate, I would. I am waiting for my cyber Now. A $10k incentive would not change fort for Tesla that much as things are sold out. But when two new factories are going it might make a difference.

The men’s jackets even have a big “T” on the back
38 second time stamp for anyone curious.I wonder how much a production like this costs. Hundreds of thousands of dollars, if not more. It’s kind of mind boggling

Yes I’ve decided to double our stake (wife agrees). Shifted funds to do that yesterday/today. Nowhere near levels of some, but not pennies in front of the steam roller..

No need. The cap will be eliminated retroactively for vehicles sold after May 24, 2021. Then on Jan 1st, 2022 a new scheme will take effect.
