    Hmm most positive feed of news from my iPhone stock trader feed today. Told my wife on our walk today that I reactivated my twitter account(not really connected on social media) this last week. Told her I was fighting for truth. I told her not to think I was crazy but I truly feel like we’re part of an amazing point in history.... the Tesla effect!

    Had a dream last week, woke up middle night karate chopping corrupt short sellers and journalists went back to bed and didn’t think of it till today after I woke in real life, watched an inspirational lecture by Mel Herbert MD about being an ER doc, dropped my daughter off at school, doubled down my Tesla investment. And look at this model 3 Go......

    Doubtful, he is probably just as serious about it as he was about the Boring Company Flamethrower.

    How hypocritical would people be to condemn Tesla for doing business with Saudi Arabia as they pump thousands of gallons of gas into their Escalades?

    As TT007's unofficial fill-in, I gotta posit that the longer the judge takes to make a statement on the joint letter, the better I feel about it. Tesla didn't say almost anything, in pimpish fashion. I expect the judge to dismiss the case or otherwise rule strongly in Elon and Tesla's favor.

    TSLA todamoon, probably tomorrow, this is an advice

    Do you really think the Y event will be bigger than 3 was? More reservations? More excitement? For a not sexy CUV?

    I don’t know. I haven’t really put any thought into it. I know I’ll be on the list asap for one. X wasn’t bigger than S, was it?

    When you think it’s got to be a joke, then be assured it’s for real.

    Oh I don't doubt they are going to make and sell it. I just think they're also trolling shorts with it.

    It takes some seriously “creative” journalism to turn 4700/week production into 3700/week.

    Funny how these kind of mistakes only ever seem to happen in one particular direction, isn't it?

    2018 changes in tax code are substantial. Not just lowering rates and modifying brackets/, but also:
    • doubling the standard deduction
    • eliminating personal exemptions
    • raising child tax credit and AGI phase-out
    • capping deduction for state & local taxes
    Anyone who needs the credit in order to make the numbers work should seek competent tax [an] advice.

    After producing cars at full tilt at the end of September, is it any surprise that production might have been lower in early October? Those humans involved in production do need breaks, after all! Talk about Tesla being under a microscope...

    If the corporation pays a dividend does that tactic potentially affect the holding period for whether the dividend is qualified?

    Isn't saving you money how they try to shape behavior? It would be far more effective if the credit could be carried over to multiple years and even more so if the SR 3 were out.

    What makes you think the Y won't be sexy? I think it will be sexier than the m3 personally and easier to make via the lessons learned on the m3. Didn't Elon say they're going to be able to reduce the amount or wiring by like a factor of 10 or something similar at the 2nd qtr. Q&A session?

    It will be the Tesla all the others will dream about killing... and that's about all they'll be able to do.
