    He also stated this his tweets are not being reviewed, unless it might affect the stock, but he might make some mistakes and not ask for things to be reviewed when they should have been! I think tomorrow will be a bad day for the share price with this headline!

    Another clip with tent footage:



    There are more short clips on the channel, not sure if the full segment will be posted too.

    The stock has been pretty immune to fud recently. If this doesn’t move the stock that would be a major buy signal.

    A bad headline for a story stock. TSLA is no longer a story stock. Water off a duck's back is my expectation.

    Keep begging. Overall, much ado about nothing. A few fair questions about "controversial" topics, but Elon's resilience is the real story.

    He said maybe 5-6 months for 35k car, but sounded uncertain. That seems longer than the ~February date for the new cheaper battery pack that he has mentioned before! Demand is likely high enough for the higher-priced variants that it doesn't matter (and this may even be part of the reason for the delay), but that's something else that won't make for a good headline.

    I'm too ignorant on the subject to offer much but why does it have to be water that's used? Isn't there another coolant analogous to ethylene glycol that has a much higher boiling point that might work?

    I don’t think you’re scaring anyone, but keep up the FUD.

    Don’t for a second believe that was the full interview. I am sure more than an hour was left on the editing floor and would even suggest some responses cut and pasted

    That's fully expected: they'll likely release the Standard Range pack with premium interior and maybe even AWD initially.

    This is standard practice in the automotive industry: when supply constrained sell the higher margin versions first.

    So IMO it might be well into 2019 until they'll release the $35k version - I'd say July-August when the tax credit goes down another step.

    Nothing too bad was said. We all hate the SEC now, old news. No effect on stock price is my guess. Long tsla

    Plus you pay both GST and VAT. It amazes me that even while paying for freight, I can buy certain album collections cheaper from Amazon France than Amazon US because I don't pay VAT. I'm talking a 20% discount! What is the annual French federal budget deficit, just curious. People here are so ignorant about fiscal items that they don't realize the Chinese are to a large extent financing the US by purchasing so much of our debt.

    "The SB1 incentive package included $195 million in Transferrable Tax Credits...As of December 1, 2018 Tesla, has received Transferable Tax Credits in the amount of $173,087,499 based on job creation and capital investment."

    Actual data provided by Tesla for June 30, 2018 shows 7,059 employees, ... The count of qualified employees, as at June 30, 2018 is 4,247...A non-qualified employee is an employee at the site who has not been employed for three consecutive months.

    Yeah that segment pretty much had no new info. Disappointing and almost boring as I was hoping for something fresh.

    Instead it was 10 minutes of rehashing the last year’s info with pessimistic questions. It was a yawner for me.

    Seems like a new video with Jerome. I wonder if this was intended for the main interview, but cut, or if there will be another segment, or if this is from earlier and recycled... Seems pretty recent though.

    Wow. I didn't watch it yet, but I read the whole interview and overall, including the crap they show that was wriitten about Elon and the company, I think the interview and Elon and the company came off pretty well and pretty honest. As was said earlier, there is a LOT of what was said and shown to Leslie that probably could have shown what Tesla has done and will do that could have shown it in a more positive light, but I think this interview that will be seen by millions of people will help folks understand what Tesla and Elon is all about, improving and helping to save the world. More power to them.
