I spent the 45 minutes watching that April Hedgefund video on how awesome TSLA is to short. They have many reasons, but perhaps the biggest is that Tesla does not know how to manufacture cars at high volume profitably. Period. That's precisely what Tesla needs to disprove to shake off shorts. It looks like the high volume production has finally arrived given that Elon is indicating they will be out of hell next month with a sustained rate of 5,000/week. Next, they will need to demonstrate that they can do this profitably in a sustained fashion. That's certainly going to take Q3, 4, and Q1 2019. Even at that point, the bears will be expecting Tesla to collapse due to loss of demand from competition and the tax incentive going away. The other point will be that Tesla will then need to rely on primarily their base model 3 for profits, which will be negligible. To counter those arguments will likely require the rest of 2019. I'm really at a loss for where a true short burn would come in, since profits are already likely widely anticipated for the next 3 quarters. I just see lots of volatility.
