For now. I have a dream that one day heads of state and their security teams will be rolling in Cybertrucks modified with extra thick steel and windows. A dream that one day armored personnel carriers will be judged by their speed, agility and ability to stop 50-cal bullets rather than the color of their exoskeleton.

i just rolled my oct-call to nov for the same price (=different strike).. reduces short-term downside risk (lower delta) & is cheaper to hold (lower theta). Still bullish. But more in the other thread
The only thing I would say is that unlike teaching your kid, there is not any two-way communication, and sometime it communicates the exact opposite of what it then does. The beta software will also make some sudden decisions at times when you do not expect it, partly because it does not seem like any decision needs to be made at that time. An example would be suddenly attempting to turn the opposite direction while in the middle of a turn. Or for me the other day it notified me on the screen that it was going to change lanes to avoid cones, and then immediately changed lanes the opposite directions *toward* the cones.
Do we know that all SR+ Model 3 produced in Fremont are LFP batteries? Seems that is what Tesla Economist is saying. I was under the impression Tesla was just making extra and shipping to stores for people to purchase once they arrive at stores.
Certainly feels like there's a hockey stick blade coming at the end of the day.
Why would I make a bearish play like selling covered calls when I could sell puts instead? Seems ridiculous on the face of it if you believe TSLA is going up. Especially with earnings coming up. I'm thinking that people who sold covered calls into this sudden rise in TSLA are feeling pretty stupid this week.
I'm pretty sure you are correct. That majority of Model 3 SR+ use the standard packs from GigaNevada. They bring in some extra LFP packs to fill out line capacity, and those are put in inventory for people to buy. (If you place a "custom" order for a SR+ you don't get a LFP pack.)
For many of us, selling puts requires cash to cover. For us, selling puts is less bullish than just using the cash to buy and hold.
Everyone seems to respond this way when it's suggested someone sell CCs instead of outright selling shares when cash is needed. Just because selling CCs is generally considered a "bearish" strategy, doesn't mean you can't do with with other motivations.
This is a big deal. Germans(the people and the regulators) are going to embrace this in a nearly optimal manner. Elon is going to be overjoyed at the pace they can roll this out there.
The combination of heavy industry and high peak rates means these folks will absolutely crush the wholesale market. Every cloud that passes by on a German afternoon is pure $$$$. Gonna be really interesting to see this evolve.
Here's a thread in the Energy Forum to discuss and track their progress.
