Funny how it's always the longs who get screwed over and over again.

Tesla, TSLA & the Investment World: the Perpetual Investors' Roundtable
- Thread starter AudubonB
- Start date
Shorts were piling in even before Elon sold recently, like right after Q3 earnings they smelled blood and started building their fat short positions. Elon's selling did encourage the shorts to pile in more, though.
What other thread? Have I been missing out for years?

if risk can be managed, now (lows) are the best time to buy. If buy not possible, then best to twiddle your thumb and don't do anything.
MM/shorts play short term games, take long term advantage. cheers!!
I'm with you but am concerned that we're not at the lows yet. Every day we descend lower and lower. So painful.

I just debit rolled everything into an inverted strangle: 12/23 -c125s/-p126s. Damn, cannot believe that I’m selling CCs at less than 1/3 ATH.🤯:mad::eek:🥵 Anyway, taunting the MMs into putting me shares this time at $126, effectively doubling my shares and reaching my share goal. I didn’t...

We've been taking the ladder down for weeks ... so I am expecting an elevator up kinda recovery at some point

My biggest miscalculation is believing true FSD will happen in late 2022 or sometime in 2023. Looks like we are a few years away. Still waiting for “the biggest increase in asset value” to happen.
I would absolutely love some elevator up action! Short interests too powerful for us at the moment though.We've been taking the ladder down for weeks ... so I am expecting an elevator up kinda recovery at some point
Trust me, this was perhaps to your extreme benefit at this time.
It's mostly shorting via puts for the moment, making the MM's do the selling on their behalf, the risk is low, especially as the put-walls go ITM every week recently
But at some point people will look and realise how cheap the stock is, and other folks will start buying calls, forcing the MM's to Delta hedge the other way and maybe Gamma squeezing back up at some point
For me, I'm 60% down from ATH portfolio and 50% down for 2022, but still up around 20x on initial investments bought 2016-2019, so it's all relative
What to do form here? I did contamplate selling 50% of my stock as a risk mitigation, but refuse to at these prices. I will be selling safe CC's to keep me sane and bring in some beer-money...

It's truly a shame. The readers on TMC would prefer that you had more free time to create the valuable insightful posts that we've come to enjoy. But I understand and the timing of the world and powerful and greedy WS types have created a perfect storm that is impacting almost everyone on this thread. No one could have seen all the negative catalysts in 2022, nor predicted how they would perfectly feed off each other forcing us beyond anyone besides GJ's wildest dreams. I hope things turn around for you and everyone on TMC that supports what I still consider an amazing company and investment. Good luck to all!
Where is this thread mister?
Exciting. I measure my net worth in Tesla shares. My net worth in Tesla shares just took a huge print upwords. Been holding some cash this 2022.
Deploying it slowly now
Never fails. All of 7 cars left in inventory here in the PNW, one of which has almost everything I want (a blue YLR with 20" wheels) and even with FSD added is unbelievably inexpensive with the $7,500 discount, and now I can't afford to sell the shares needed to buy it.
Damn...
Damn...
As painful as it was, I sold 7% at $145 to potentially shore up my SBLOC balance. I’m OK as long as we don’t fall another 65%, but the way things are going…
At least it will help with taxes. After wash sale lockout, I’ll reevaluate whether to buy back in or pay off some of the loan.

Same here in Tampa, FL - this morning saw the discount and was going to trade my Plaid in for a Model 3 P - 6 in stock (Red / White interior) at 9:30 am....
Went to a meeting and logged back on to make the puchase at 11am and they were all gone. Now only SR 3's in the State of Florida.
That's quick...
Folks - it's my opinion that Tesla is undervalued at this share price, yeah, I know, shocker... however I'm not a smarty-pants accountant type person, so does any of you know what the fair-value of $TSLA should be based on the fundamentals? I'd like something solid to back-up my feelings
Thanks!
Thanks!
