6. to accuse formally or explicitly (usually followed by with):
This is simply a concerted effort at market manipulation by some group of criminals. It's got all the hallmarks: falsified news stories, etc.So with all the positive outlook, why are we not stable above 310? It's killing me! Sell call now or wait til tomorrow?
Hey Dan, Did you get your Model 3?
Please get timestamped screenshots of both FactSet's data and the articles with fake numbers, and post it over in the thread for collecting evidence of criminal stock price manipulation, so we can send it to the SEC.Unreal. The articles should be changed or this is blatant stock price manipulation.
My thought is that the Q3 CapEx guidance will end up being way high. The trend this year has been lowed estimates due to the not expanding the Model 3 line/ production capacity. Combine that with your thinking that GF3 cap ex will start next quarter and Elon's push for positivity, and Q3 with be even more favorable...
What he said. It took me over a year of study before I started doing any options trades (and I've invested in stocks for decades before that). I only did one type of trade, which was very specifically designed to handle a specific situation (the one I'm still doing, selling cash-secured puts). I tried another type of options trade, and then realized I'd missed something important (tax considerations) and backed out of it at a loss. I tried a third type, and it was OK but it made me very uncomfortable so I won't do it again. Tried a fourth type of trade, same result as the third type.I hope you don't take this the wrong way, but you are nowhere near ready for options trading (I'm really trying to help you by telling you this). You should read about what options really are, why they exist (i.e., what function they perform in the market), and most importantly how they are priced. Read about the Black-Scholes equation at least at a high-level and try to understand the big ideas. You don't need to go into the actual equation, but you should understand its inputs, what real-life elements they are modelling, and how those inputs impact the option price when their values change.
This time you got lucky. Take your profits and also a (long) break from option trading. Once you've built enough understanding that you can answer the basic questions for yourself, you can take the next step.
Trust me on this one.
Tesla Gigafactory 1 to see Panasonic's new battery lines and new Grohmann machines in Q4...The present 10 lines have an output of 20 GW...
Second, adding 3 new lines will NOT increase production to 35 GWh, not even close. Production will more likely be increased to 24 GWh per year with 13 lines.
According to the analysts, Tesla head of investor relations Martin Viecha noted that upgrades from Grohmann, which are set to be sent to Gigafactory 1 by the end of Q3 or the beginning of Q4, would help module production become three times faster and three times cheaper.
I do need to push back on the non-overlapping bullet point: if they don't overlap, then they extend the timing until all the pieces are usable. They maybe have less robots, but they still need them to be installed at the same time.
I.e. the main capex at this point would be stamping machines for GF1 (or autoclaves if it's mostly carbon fibre), and construction work.
The delivery experience at the start of September was quite pleasant and orderly.While I agree with you on principal and speaking in generalities, in light of the delivery tactics experienced by many (Including me) last week it may not be the best time to be discussing the delivery experience. Just sayin'.

Let's face it: The shorts have endless pockets and no interest in profit. They just want to harm Tesla.
What could be the end of this game then? How could the shorts be stopped?
I believe Q4 could be a repeat of 4Q2016. That year Q4 demand was pulled forward into Q3 as well to generate a profit. Tesla has the chance this time to expand their market for Model 3. But I do not see much improvement being possible for total production in the next three months. But we are currently guessing in the blind. Tesla has not updated any reservation numbers in over a year. Statements like "orders are increasing" are meaningless without context or reference points.
I believe Tesla has GREAT long term potential. But it has to survive the short term to get there.
Tesla needs to tout the battery in SA. Tesla energy will be bigger than their vehicle segment.
Increase in accounts payable is a natural effect of increasing production volume. We'll see another round of cash generated in Q4 by increasing accounts payable, but it will be supplemented by a much higher amount of profit. When you have 60 days to pay your suppliers and you can build and sell the vehicles in substantially less than that time, increasing volume is a huge cash generator. The good news is that as long as your volume stays the same or increases, you never see those accounts payable biting you. OTOH, look at the effect of 15,000 vehicles in transit over end of quarter. Those are assets.
GF1? Is it pretty much assumed they’re building semi at GF1?
What is the lead time on a stamping machine? Are these stock items? What about an autoclave?
They also need a stamping machine for GF3. Probably get an order for one of those soon. Perhaps the same one that they put in 2 years ago at Fremont?
