I mean, they’re probably going to generate around $5 billion of FCF this quarter.
Elon needs to put out Master Plan III. Put the focus back on what matters and show that he is still focused on the details.
I am just trying to not have my margin account blow up.
Peak of 70X now down to 15X. Bummer.
If we stop and go up at some point I should be OK. I think 150 might be the breaking point for a lot of people, hence the attempted waterfall in the stock.
I am 99% in Tesla.
By the end of today, I expect to be 99.5% in Tesla.
Nothing on margin.
Hang in there, folks!
Update: I am done buying @188...I have never seen a share price so divorced from reality.

Raises hand...ouch!Getting MC'd and having to sell your long term holdings and getting taxed ..... now that's a double wedgie
Solar stocks are not collapsing today, this is tesla specific.
fslr is up
sedg is way up
twitter appears to be a blunder and tesla is catching
the flack.

I'm very surprised we haven't seen Master Plan III yet. I can only guess he's been too busy with Twitter and such to bother finishing it up and releasing it.
Elon specific I believe. I really have no acquaintances that like him whatsoever anymore, (maybe 1 friend) Reasonably or not, it doesn’t matter anymore. The pool of haters has grown A lot

I hate to change the subject here/s, but there is interesting data in CarSalesBase about Tesla sales development. I chose the Europe data:
carsalesbase.com
Perhaps this is off-topic because it relates to actual Tesla results in Europe. I apologize for not mentioning politics or social media acquisitions./s
MODS: Please accept my apologies if this is the incorrect thread./s
It is responsible to note that in present global political/economic/climactic developments there is extreme risk to anything speculative. Despite that, as in other such volatile times, investing in conservative value has been wise. Those conservative values are ones that have durable competitive advantage combined with high capital efficiency and manufacturing excellence.
Direct parallels with other times of great stress are fraught, but even imrprobables, like Chrysler, succeeded then due to modern products and efficient production that made 1930's Plymouths a great deal, as did General Motors. Both were innovators then, while the giant of the time, Ford, stagnated. BCG has a very good summery for he time:
A quick review shows that those two were then much like Tesla is today, although both grew with acquisitions, the product and production innovations made both well positioned for rapid growth.
The lessons of those two are also relevant in that both stagnated when their success made them forget the basics. Out of World War II they both let the booming markets deceive them into valuing form over function.
In Tesla we have a very long time before such a thing could happen, not least because the current world is beginning to understand the limits of hydrocarbon-based power.
Distracting ourselves from basics while attending to every whim and whimsy makes us forget what Tesla is all about. Nothing else is relevant.
When we preoccupy ourselves with everything else we are becoming dilettantes, preoccupied with personality rather than content. Of course Mr. Musk is odd. Were Edison, Carver, Einstein, Franklin, Boeing, Ford, Daimler, Porsche, Honda...NOT odd? Of course they were! Compared with some of them Elon is well balanced and mild.
It is long past time to chill! Pay attention to facts, not emotions. @The Accountant , @Gigapress and several others are doing a good job of staying on the subject. Our long-suffering Mods are at risk of burnout if we do not shape up. We all should do better, I explicitly include myself. When we are tempted to concern ourselves with birdlike issues, just remember the 'virtuous kind heroes'/s of the past such as Bill Boeing and Henry Ford. Then compare with Elon Musk, who has actually accomplished more than any of those others, as incredible as it seems.

How Automakers Accelerated Out of the Great Depression

This stock has become disconnected from reality and has just become a trading vehicle because of all the extrinsic news (noise?). Watching the Level II quotes one can easily see the manipulation and how the stock is getting pinned at certain prices and then brought down by MMs and shorts. Hopefully, actual Tesla news starts coming out and driving the price back up to valuations that represent what the company is actually doing. Until then, unfortunately, traders are in control.

Well if you insist on posting political sh*t here, at least make it more mature than an argument that can be refuted by a 3-year old.
There is no inconsistency here, Elon's personal political leaning and twitter's political leaning are two totally different things, no different from the expectation that even when we have a president from a particular party, the various government agencies should still remain political neutral.

Welp, if nothing else his fortune being rapidly erased (hopefully) gets his attention back where it belongs. GLTA in weathering this storm...

I don't know any Elon haters. What kind of people are you guys hanging out with?
Warning....T/A
I've been hearing about 186.63 for a while. I think we go lower but who knows. Maybe catch a bounce there?

I thought 200 was the new 300...now it looks like 190 is the new 200.
Not going in the right direction....think I will go for a walk on the beach.
