Tell that to Boeing, who had the entire 787 fleet grounded for a few months by their pouch batteries.I don't see swelling as much of an issue, pouch and prismatic packs are all packed together tightly with no where to go, unlike cylindrical cells which count on the can to hold them together.
You're implying that the problem was the format. I believe the problem was in manufacturing and the usage profile. Also using an outdated chemistry. And they were prismatic not pouch.Tell that to Boeing, who had the entire 787 fleet grounded for a few months by their pouch batteries.
Veering steadily off topic, ISTR that Elon offered his advice to Boeing on battery tech but was rejected.You're implying that the problem was the format. I believe the problem was in manufacturing and the usage profile. Also using an outdated chemistry. And they were prismatic not pouch.
HELLO....
We have just made our first additions to TSLA since (read on) -
Bought in at $247.77 net, picking up a fair chunk in that we added to our positions by 16%.
The last time we added any Tesla was Sept 16, 2016, when we increased holdings by about 30% with that once-in-a-lifetime "free" arbitrage: buying SCTY at under $17 to give us TSLA at $155 - at a time the stock was about $250.
1 all set out in note 13 to Tesla' 10-kHi Audubon, a friend of mine asked me 2 questions about scty that I did not have an answer for immediately. I thought you might be the person better suited for this as you mentioned that your purchase of scty stock during the Tesla acquisition benefited your holdings.
Here are the questions:
1. What is the amount of scty notes that Tesla has to pay for in the futur, and do you know the due date?
2. When will you see the scty financials start to benefit Tesla?
BREAKING NEWS
Tesla’s stock cannot support future secondary offerings. Pay no attention to the 30 million shares that have been borrowed and sold, filling buy orders with shares that don’t really exist, artificially lowering the price of TSLA.
*waves hand*
These are not the TSLA shares you are looking for. Trust us, Tesla’s stock can’t handle dilution and shares being made out of thin air.
HAHAHAHAHA.
Money obtained from subsequent offerings belongs to all shareholders. The pie grows; each shareholder owns a slice that is just as large as before, but a smaller percentage of the pie than previously. It would be a wash if the the new money were simply locked away in a safe. But if it is invested in rapid growth to disrupt long established capital intensive industries, then it can be a huge benefit making dilution a misleading term.
Tesla likely will have to keep raising capital to catch up to the lead of a century by its competitors. Wall Street realizes that the investments are wise and will keep supporting Tesla. Expect Tesla to eventually dominate its industries and no longer need to raise capital. Instead shareholders will be able to retire comfortably with Tesla dividends.

But they can't because there is a secret undisclosed SEC investigation going on. There's no other possible explanation and Elon is a liar.They should have raised capitol 3 months ago when the SP was over $340.

Do you think this growth will stop and Tesla starts paying out the profits as dividends ?
I could only see that happening after Elon retires on Mars and enjoys the magnificent view of Olympus Mons from his backyard.
The first part of your post (that I removed from the quote) makes perfect sense, I have no problem with that.
However, reading your last sentence made my spidey sense tingling. Do you really believe, that Tesla will start paying dividends with Elon Musk at the helm ? The way I see him is that he has such grand visions for the future that he will always find new areas to invest in, expanding the business to cover more and more markets. Started with cars, then stationary battery storage, then solar roofs, Tesla network (uber-like service with self-driving cars), Semi trucks, coffee shops at superchargers, insurance, ...

This is a war and it is just beginning.
I never thought Steve Jobs would allow Apple to pay dividends, but once the cash starts rolling in there was only so many companies they could buy that made sense. Few seem to see what I really believe is coming. Tesla may never sell more cars that Toyota or GM, but it will sell most of the profitable cars on the market. Profits will then become unavoidable and then we will see the trolls switch from saying it can't be done to, it can't be done much longer. I guess Tesla could buy bankwupt GM and cannibalize their empty plants for building products people actually want. That isn't going to happen tomorrow, maybe not for 5 years, but it is coming.The first part of your post (that I removed from the quote) makes perfect sense, I have no problem with that.
