Or you will sue him? Are you any better than shorts?I only have this to say to Elon:
You better make it up to those of us who believed in what you said by making TSLA a 700 billion dollar company.
Glad I held onto 470 options for Jan value will return. Should have added moreSo I lost about 30% of my life's savings because my J20 400 LEAPs went off a cliff in the span of 5 minutes, had to sell and buy DITM leap, all that for nothing? I'm a tad annoyed. Now those J20 400 LEAPs are going to skyrocket and if I want to get back into them, it's a day's wait.
I'm pretty ok with losing money because the stock price goes down, because at least it's anchored to the stock price. But losing money for reasons other than the SP does annoy me, a lot.
This belongs in General Discussion, probably. Moving the followup ---> General Discussion: 2018 Investor RoundtableThis is probably not market related. Didn’t really know where to share. Its basically this twitter guy posting screenshots of an old employee that helped developed the infotainment system breaking his nda because he says it’s Expired. But definitely talking bad about the code.

So, I was previously working in M&A and I have quickly set up a simple and basic model for a possible Q3 P&L for TESLA and let's see where we land: 0 net income. (without considering allowances for these tweets)
CFIUS is still a thing.
I don't think the Saudis are going to try and buy a stake they could be forced to divest by the US Government.
Tencent also had their stake revealed but they didn't keep adding after the reveal for probably the same reason.
Production rates are going to be threefold what they were in Q2.
Seven letters:I agree. Tesla needs more cash to do everything they have on their plate from now thru 2019. Profits from Q3 and maybe Q4 will not be enough to cover all the bases and trim debt too. I do not understand why Musk is so opposed to raising more cash from equity. No one seems opposed to doing it so why not take advantage of it?
Musk have extremely flexible and loyal followers, that is for sure!
Types of Market Manipulation
Market manipulation comes in many shapes and sizes. The following are a few examples of different types of market manipulation.
- Churning - An attempt by a stock broker to increase activity in a client's account to boost commissions by buying and selling orders at the same price. This activity is intended to drive up the price and attract other investors.
- Ramping - Creating activity or rumors intended to raise the price of a stock.
- Wash trading - Generating activity to push up the stock price by selling and re-purchasing the same security.
- Bear raiding - An attempt by a broker to short sell a security and drive the price down, allowing it to be bought back at a lower price and thus make a profit on the difference.
- Cornering - When enough of a certain stock, commodity, or other asset is purchased in order gain control and establish the price for it.
Asking those of you with better programing/system chops, do this guys criticisms seem to have merit? Also, do we have insight into the general level of satisfaction of current IT team?Really hates touch screens In cars. What an axe that he has to grind.
In general, they can go to just under 10% of the stock without worrying about CFIUS.
My favorite part of Tesla the IR letter:
We’ve shown that we can make great sustainable energy products, and we now need to show that we can be sustainably profitable. With all the progress we’ve made on Model 3, we’re positioned to do this, and that’s what the team and I are going to be putting all of our efforts toward.
My M3 is at the service center for a minor fix, but the part got delayed. The service folks gave me a brand new Mercedes GLC 300 loaner. It's been a day and I already miss my M3. The acceleration, control, response, smooth ride, and tech is just so far ahead of the other manufacturers. Once people drive a Tesla, there is no going back....not until the other guys catch up. This little experience just reinforced my long-term view of Tesla. There is no competition right now.
Excellent post, a small correction:
So they made 28k M3's in Q2, which is a rate of 2.1k/week - in Q3 they are guiding for 50k-55k M3's, which is 3.8k-4.2k/week, i.e. not three times but about twice the (sustained) rate.
(Fully agreed with all your other observations, spot on.)
Are there any hard limits in the CFIUS regulations, or is it completely discretionary? I found this:
CooleyI don't like the "or less" language.
For example, the types of "transactions" that may fall within CFIUS' scope of review can include not only traditional mergers and acquisitions, but also investments in which a foreign person acquires a small minority investment in a target – in some cases as little as 10 percent or less of the outstanding voting stock in a US company. Covered transactions also can include the formation of a joint venture or even certain long-term leases.
But yeah, I'd argue that the Public Investment Fund of Saudi Arabia has such good connections to the White House and Republicans in particular that it seems unlikely to make that they'd be facing too many CFIUS problems. Saudi Arabia has been sold high-tech U.S. weapons after all.
To be fair, have you ever heard of a car Jay Leno doesn't want to buy.
The roadster looks awesome but Jay Leno shouldn't be the yardstick.
I don't think they have anything to worry about. Saudi Arabia is the largest provider of emoluments to the president and he is well aware of that.CFIUS is still a thing.
I don't think the Saudis are going to try and buy a stake they could be forced to divest by the US Government.
Tencent also had their stake revealed but they didn't keep adding after the reveal for probably the same reason.
Sorry - M3 deliveries in Q2 were 18,449, not production.
