why do people keep saying "Lucifer our Lord" LOL.LOL... I could type "the sky is blue" and get a disagree. Just watch...
EDIT: I rest my case. lol
Well I must say as a long investor I have been disappointed over the last few months as in my mind the numbers are not adding up. Tesla claimed 5000 a week production in June, but when we looked at July sales we have some 14,200 cars. WELL short of 5000/week especially since we thought there was an overhand as they were holding back June deliveries. So I was hoping for north of 20,000 in August, again we thought there was an overhang and Insideevs is showing only 17,800 deliveries, again well below 5000/month. So from my view I continue to see overpromising and under delivering. Yes there is solid improvement but it appears Tesla is still well short of the June goal of 5,000/week and we are in September. Then add in the crazy tweets and less than stellar Joe Rogan interview it is just pure frustration from my view and I can understand the low stock price.
I hope Tesla focuses on meeting their production goals month in and month out.
I am sitting on $300 J 18 calls with deep losses and excited about the fact that we had a sharp 35% drop in SP over 4 weeks instead of a protracted gradual downtrendWhere are you at for forecasts today? Haven't seen you much on here lately trendtrader. Did you give up after Friday.
User name and avatar checks out.Well we Martians where big supporters of spreading the red weed in the first invasion attempt in 1895.

Well...on Mars it's red, Neptune green, Mercury black. so it all depends on your home planet I guess.LOL... I could type "the sky is blue" and get a disagree. Just watch...
I LOVED those books as a pup...even read them aloud to my pups. Never knew they made a movie (TV series?) out of them.But alcohol is a poison to us just like our distant relatives who are remembered in your Tripod stories.
For those of you who are unaware of our distant cousins (Excellent way to introduce your children to SciFi).
Believe me Prof, I agree with you 100%. It's just that you could read your last paragraph as the exact opposite, and I'm happy you clarified it. We're on the same page. I mean I'm half Norwegian and half Australian and I think it's a good mix... ;-)

I'm reading Reddit on people's sentiments on Tesla, and it is really bearish. They keep repeating points like Tesla's never made a profit or cash burn or competitors will kill Tesla. And it made me think.
The story of Tesla reminds me of a story between the high school grad vs the med school student.
If you look at the net income of both from the start of high school graduation for 10-15 years, the high school grad is going to be making consistent income year over year. The med school student will have continual losses that grows bigger and bigger as the student goes into their later years of study as tuition gets more expensive by the year.
Does anyone go at the med school student yelling "WHY HAVEN'T YOU MADE ANY PROFIT FOR OVER 10 YEARS??? High school Joe is making money every year. How can you possibly catch up?"
Because anyone with half a brain knows that the moment the med school student graduates, he'll make more money in one year than the high school grad makes in 5-10 years. His knowledge over the past 12 years or so of training gives him a near insurmountable advantage in money making abilities over the high school grad that it is nearly impossible to catch up. Oh and, banks will have absolutely no problem lending money to the consistently money losing med school student for his studies, for obvious reasons of future earning potential.
Why don't people understand that in order to achieve something amazing, you have to work for years at a loss before realizing the gains?
I dont think TSLA's is as sure shot as that med student analogy. Because, I know otherwise very sensible people in the finance industry who give great advice about long term etf only investing etc but when it comes to TSLA, here is what he has to say:
"Its financing situation is pretty consistently precarious; they're effectively dependent on the good graces of the capital markets to keep the lights on, and that can change at a moment's notice"
I have a bet also with such a person for $100. He says TSLA will not be profitable for 2 consecutive qtrs in next 2 years. I have accepted his bet.
What do you guys think Model Y with Tesla’s current technology would cost? And an other question; has Tesla said anything about Model Y’s price?No, he's pointing out that until battery prices drop, the price differential for a SUV due to its higher energy consumption (and thus larger battery needs) push it into a price bracket which fewer people can afford. So it makes more sense to meet the needs of sedan customers first (who are still numerous, and- for the time being - far more than Tesla can serve), and move from there to SUVs to expand the customer base. With the elapsed time allowing for a battery price decline and other refinements.
I just got an email from Tesla that my M3 (performance dual motor) is finishing production and almost ready for delivery. Only reason I am posting this is that I am in Canada (near Vancouver) - it is promising they are doing some Canadian deliveries again.
Let's be careful with information. The attached listing is cherry picked, NOT all vehicle classes, but only cars. Trucks (and many SUVs are classified as trucks, I know my Honda Pilot is) are not included in the list. F-series pickup is still the number one selling vehicle in the the USA. All this means is Tesla still has a long way to go, but I have no doubt it will happen. I'd like to see a list including all vehicle classes.
Edit: 81,839 F-series trucks sold in August '18, an increase over '17 and almost 4X that of M3. Ford F-series US car sales figures. Don't have their sales $ however know F-series is Ford's bread and butter. IMHO Tesla pickup truck will dominate their market, just like they now dominate luxury auto sales. It is just a matter of time.

Google Translate choked on that.
Can you please offer some help, D. ?
Less than 36 hours later, 5.2M views, which is #4 all time of Rogan podcasts.
But now at 174k likes, which is a smash over all other Rogan podcast episodes. It’s not even close, this could easily go over 200k soon too.
Joe Rogan podcast is one of the most popular podcasts in internet history.
Again, Elon is reaching the right audience at the right time and they are positively responding with record breaking numbers.
Which appears to be the complete opposite in the traditonal established media sentiment and reporting.
Bifurcation means things are drastically changing and a decision point in mass is coming. Trust is shifting and you’re either on that train or this hyperloop when it hits critical mass.
