Well, looks like it will be Avis.

Hopefully they can take advantage of the that squeeze and do something with that froth.

That's a pretty decent improvement from first month of Q3 which I think was 8-9k local sales since the first month of the quarters is by far the heaviest for exports.

Why wait ..
Rental companies should pay top $$ for used M3 and take it off the hands of Teslanaires -- so that they can upgrade to S and X


it's getting hot. I see some SPACs forming for rental EV companies

So much of my wealth is tied up into Tesla. I wish there was something I could do with some of my gains. I’ve always wanted a Ferrari but gas cars are against my religion. Been waiting for my forever delayed Model X Plaid but I doubt I’ll get it within the next 2 years. Same with Roadster. My house is paid off (thanks Spiegel). Thought about rental properties but real estate here in SW Florida pretty much doubled in price since Covid. I don’t like any other stocks. So I sadly sit here, watching my account balance grow

Have you considered solving world hunger?

Does Whole Foods do blue light specials? I don't shop there often.

I don't shop at Whole Foods either. How do you think I save up for TSLA?

FYI, this is all because Elon tweeted poetry.

Umm, no.

And like I've said before; everything to do with TSLA, Tesla, and Elon's tweets is poetry. Everything. And so, the massive amounts of wealth being created for all of us petty little followers can be attributed to what? Poetry dear cat. Poetry.

Carry on.

TSLA looking pretty healthy today, IMO.

So is Hertz, Avis, Alamo and Enterprise going to build their own Tesla factory or something? No, they are the going to have to get in line with the rest of us. Because I know for a fact that there are no special deals available for anyone, and no cutting in line, everyone pays the same for their car, every gets their car in the order they were reserved, right?

All this rental car stuff is very good for the image of Tesla and for EVs in general, but - just like Elon tweeted - completely unimportant with regard to the company's near-term financials.

 

[Artful Dodger]

I'm impressed too, but what does it mean? Is this good?

Or are people just confused, like me???

Now you are finally beginning to understand that FUD is hedgies only product, chaos is their raison d'etre. They lie for a living. Don't listen to them.

Even Elon can't bring TSLA down

What, did you blink or something?

 

[TheTalkingMule]

Hertz stock up 4 today, over 10%.
That should (may) imply the deal is on.

Avis is up 140%, I don't think they're too worried! Haven't looked into it, but it'd be hilarious if it were some kind of Tesla halo effect.

Hey......should we be buying Avis puts? Certainly there's no future in car rentals.

Edit: Finally got stopped up 186%

CNBC covering Tesla today, top headline.....

Lol!

Everyone is realizing this is actually good news. Hertz is buying at retail and competing with retail buyers to get the cars.

Tesla does not need to give discounts. Everyone even rental cars companies want Tesla vehicles even before tax credits.

I’ve been renting homes at nice spots for 1+ months a shot. Pretty much inverted normal vacation behavior, going home for a few days to take care of business but away other than that.

I’ve resisted buying property because anything I own today would not be as interesting in a few years if TSLA grows as expected.

My CT and Roadster orders have not been working out either. Still holding out for 500 mile range.

Speaking of which, another rental car company could show they’re forward thinking by ordering 50,000 Cybertrucks.

I'm cashing out my moderate ETF positions and going all in on TSLA!

Been holding some ARKK all year but I noticed their steady TSLA sales right after the Q3 Earnings on almost no movement. Seems the timing was off there, but still hopeful it does something soon. I think innovation is harder than Tesla makes it look (understatement of the year).

 

[bro1999]

market thinks Hertz got back the 4.2B

Mark Fields must be busy getting calls from VW, Ford and Polestar

Just realized that former fired Ford CEO Fields is now the Hertz CEO.

Looks like a good day to take off from watching the ticker.

Instead, I think I'll go do a little volunteer work building more MTB trail.

I know I can depend on y'all to let me know if anything exciting happens.

May you enjoy the day by preparing for the holiday season by roasting shortzez on the open fire.

Disruptions and pharma stocks are hard.
For Disruption, on paper a lot of companies look good, but most fail.
Pharma/Bio-tech are more like Binary event driven - vaccine/cancer cure massive rewards and if study shows failure big losses.

I had DDD and LendingClub with same ARK disruptive aspirations and lost my shirt on these trades. One of the reasons I avoided ARK.

All in TSLA ... the cream that has risen out of the disruption froth
(+ being all in also has it's own super risks ... )

WTF Avis??? Up over 200% now. I would 100% be buying puts on the stock if I could right now.
