Tesla, TSLA & the Investment World: the Perpetual Investors' Roundtable

Another new word! Thanks, Audie. Great word....except it contains "cat".
So do caterwauling, catatonic and catastrophe. Your point is?
I don’t think it’s much of a stretch to think that Blackrock already had information about the Ford and GM deals at the time they were trying to get others to write calls for them
Blame Canada.As a follow-up:

TSLA ran up +$100 / share from ~$135 -> ~$235 between 9/9/2020 -> 12/31/2020 (starting mostly 2 months after on 11/14/2020)
I'm beginning to wonder and, probably will look into, the analysis of share price change and climate change disasters around major economic areas.
crush your enemies, see them driven before you, and to hear the lamentation of their women! lol.
Even better if you can sound magnanimous while doing so.
You, my friend, are a psychopath. A very rich one ;-)
I don't know if it's helpful, but let me channel my inner @StealthP3D for those "younger", post-2020 investors.
I bought Tesla in the late 2015. I didn't know anything about the market, options, etc, and I still don't.
I bought the story that Tesla was selling: a company leading the energetic transition in front of climate change. One single company leading multiple fronts of this transition. This forum helped me all these years, as it does to all of us.
Every time I tried to be smart with trading, I lost. Few shares, but still lost. Even if I sold well, I didn't re-buy well.
But, moreover, every time Tesla rallied, it was at a really, really unpredictable moment. It seems like random.
We expected many rallies along the years, we assumed there were many catalysts, and dozens, maybe hundreds failed. Then, out of the blue, in a pandemic, Tesla rallied 11x.
Don't know about this time, but nobody saw this rally coming. We "saw" a lot of others coming, but didn't happen.
Long story short: just hodl, ffs. TSLA is extremely unpredictable, especially on the upside. We saw that multiple times.
Don't go 100% in if you want other money to play with with other more reliable stocks. If you play with Tesla, just know it's likely you will have regrets. Maybe some wins, but also some losses. I personally prefer to be an average investor but get that one big win.

Well this sounds familiar. Got into TSLA in 2016 / 2017 through my dad's account because I was just 14 at the time. Lmao.
Made a huge mistake and sold when factories shut down because of COVID but got back in shortly after. It cost me a large amount of shares but I never stopped believing in the long term mission.
Tried to do day trading or short-term gambling with options and never won. Had some profits but lost them shortly after. After losing 3-4k on the options market, I cashed out what was left in my gambling account and bought more stock.
As a car enthusiast with a passion for renewables and modern tech, my plan is to hold until at least 2030, buying new shares every now and then.
The Eurozone is now officialy in a recession, Eurostat announced yesterday. But it’s a light one so far: 0.1% contraction in Q4 and 0.1% contraction in Q1 (revised downward). Inflation is not really letting up, fueled by huge wage increases (up to 10–15%) and the delayed effects of higher food and energy prices. The ECB is expected to keep raising interest rates. So Europe is doing worse than the US.
How does that affect Tesla? Sales so far this year are tracking much higher than last year. I’m not seeing discounts on Model 3 (which is remarkable, with Highland coming up). For Model Y I’m seeing only small discounts of a few hundreds euros, but most cars are not discounted.
Model S and X is a different story. After the €5k price drop at the beginning of Q2 there’s now an extra €8k discount on almost every S and X in inventory. There’s hundreds of them. Model S Plaid has come down from €139k to €125k and I’m seriously contemplating buying one. But Tesla’s trade-in offer of just €25k for my 5 year old Model S P100D is still holding me back, along with some other things.

WUWA seems to be saying he saw the model 3 highland in production in his latest drone photos

Big, if true.
Launch seems to be just around the corner.
4 prototype sightings in the last 2-3 days.
CANT WAIT
I would have thought the moral of the story would be to never ruin a vacation by watching the markets and trading stocks.

24 waiting... Premieres 6/9/23, 7:00 am ET (+45 min from now)
This made me look at my first TSLA purchase in 2013 purchase also, but ‘only’ 3,000% increase!
Which brings up an important point - the SP had already more than doubled that year, yet it wasn’t “too late” to invest. A decade later both investments look pretty darn good.
So don’t worry so much about waiting on the sidelines for the next ‘dip’. If history is any guide, a decade from now it’ll have been worth it to get it early and HODL!
I think this is actually the number one reason why I am all in on Tesla

Same thing here.
Stock goes up and down every day. Stock drops by a huuuuge amount and everone panics. I keep calm.
If you do the right thing and something good for the world, success will come automatically. It might just take time.
We are investing our money not just in a profitable company, but in a sustainable future for upcoming generations.

Great find, watching it live right now!
I don't think Tesla is losing its moat I think they are trapping Ford and GM inside their Tesla moat.
Read the board yesterday and today and you'll see many of the reasons. Here's a couple.
Human nature will make the drivers of vehicles other than Tesla's feel a little funny when they pull into a Tesla charging station. And they may question their decision to have not bought a Tesla.
If you pull into a Burger King to have lunch and all around you is information on why McDonald's is better what are you going to think
The amount of information Tesla will harvest from these other EVS will have huge advantages.Tesla will be harvesting information from other manufacturers but other manufacturers will not be harvesting information from Tesla's. This is a one-way Street (isn't that a moat?)
So many other reasons things are looking really good.
Tesla isn't losing its moat it's trapping everybody else inside, understand this and you won't be tempted to sell your shares. Elon never fails to surprise.. what's next
