TSLA Market Action: 2018 Investor Roundtable

[KarenRei]

People: stop saying "The SEC should investigate WSJ". When you think the SEC should investigate someone, file a complaint alleging wrongdoing.

The SEC doesn't read this forum looking for angry people.

If this turned out not true. TSLA should sue WSJ to see who is behind all those craps and get punished.

That is simply fascinating. The power of denial and rationalization is awesome. This is how black holes implode!

Fortunately, the stock market has a way to keep score. When you go against reality, it eventually kicks you in the nuts. I wish this was the case in politics, too... but alas, it's not.

Well, it actually *is* the case in politics, but it operates on a dangerously long time frame. Tsar Nicholas had lost touch with reality well before the 1909 war with Japan, but it didn't catch up with him until 1917.

Clearly like me, Elon is not happy with his new staid image...

Okay, the timing of the release from Thomson Reuters stating Tesla has not received any new requests for data, nor any subpoenas etc, is timestamped BEFORE the DJ "news" release by some10 minutes, however, I did not receive the Reuters popup until 14:31, much later than the DJ hit piece at 13:57. Very strange timing...

Get out the vote. This *sugar* needs to be reined in. Corrupt SEC, corrupt DOJ, corrupt WSJ,
corruptcorruptcorrupt.

Wait, who do I vote for to end corruption??

Obviously not the Democrats or the Republicans...

 

[tivoboy]

We are solidly in stage 3:

• First they ignore you,
• then they laugh at you,
• then they fight you,
• then you win.

When the time comes, my Tesla will be named "Spellzpunk".

SEC Investor Complaint Form

The SEC doesn't read this forum looking for angry people.

How does this work with radio button on top:
-Yes, send the form to the firm or company. No, do not send the form to the firm or company.
- If you choose "no", we will record your complaint in our database, but we cannot help you any further.

If I make a complaint against WSJ, they send it to WSJ? How does this help me?

Giant Meteor 2020.

Unfortunately his solution is a bit too extreme for my tastes though...

 

[djgarrett21]

Hmmm...thinking about picking up 10 shares below $325. Do it?

 

[wallstguy]

Submitted an official SEC Complaint against WSJ for this. But did not get any confirmation page - anyone else?

 

[CorneliusXX]

Not relevant because every 6 year old to young adult IS saving for a Tesla.

So is every 36 year old

I wrote to the Ombudsman of the SEC:
Join push for SEC Investigation of TSLA manipulators and inside traders

 

[azaz]

alright bro. If you are happy supporting this childish WSJ/FBI are corrupt and influenced by shorts behavior be my guest. I'll just wait and see if someone who actually knows something shows up, and give up on being the adult in the room.

I don’t think the FBI is influenced by shorts. They are simply conducting an investigation. One that doesn’t even seem to be at an advanced stage given that Tesla hasn’t gotten a subpoena.
However you are naive to think people don’t manipulate the media. Just. Look at politics

 

[phil0909]

I would like to understand the consensus here. Is it:

a) The Journal and its reporter published false information, or
b) They published truthful information, but in a slanted manner, with manipulative timing?

What the article says is:
1. FBI investigating truthfulness of Tesla statements regarding Model 3 production
2. Investigation intensified in recent weeks
3. FBI requested interviews and testimony from former employees in recent weeks

What do you think? False, or true but manipulative?

   Where is the SEC when the WSJ publishes old information purely meant to distort the stock and harm investors? @Tesla @mayemusk. I would love for the SEC to ask the reporter why they published this information at 2 pm ET? https://www.wsj.com/articles/tesla-faces-deepening-criminal-probe-over-whether-it-misstated-production-figures-1540576636 … via @WSJ.

Replying to @bosterogriego @Tesla and
Good question

 

[Bunky]

“The DOJ is investigating whether Tesla misled investors about Model 3 production.”

I hate that this is supposedly in the interest of misled investors when (a) I have not heard or seen of one investor claiming to be misled (b) the news of the investigations impacts the share price and investors detrimentally (c) the forward looking statements disclaimer should cover any disparity between guidance and results.

Thanks @KarenRei for the link. We should all use it.

Elizabeth Holmes was running a business selling a product that fundamentally didn't work/exist. Are you suggesting the same is true of Tesla?

 

[SOULPEDL]

Well if they have no authority to do damage here than you have nothing to worry about, eh? I'll assume you are an expert. The FBI is presumably just biased and manipulated by shorts and likes to waste their time...

Very soon, they're going to stop paying you to defend crazy. You're gone to me already. Goodbye.
