    Oops, I mis-typed. My initial position has more than tripled, which gives me growth of over 200% (not 300). I still has a happy.

    Indeed. I saw 200% gain, just before it dropped back today. <smirk>

    Did someone ban Cauliflower, or did he have an aneurysm because TSLA dropped 3% on some day without any news?

    Tempurpedic took a nosedive based on low quarterly numbers. They still make the best mattress in the world so they are a decent stock risk. TPX is their symbol and they are currently at $23.5.

    If you buy Tesla's cars do you buy thier suppliers?

    On June 22, 2012, Alcoa saluted Tesla Motors on the introduction of the Tesla Model S electric vehicle, an all-aluminum premium sedan that accelerates from 0 to 60 miles per hour in 5.6 seconds, with zero tailpipe emissions.
    The body of Model S is a state-of-the-art, aluminum-intensive design. Weight-saving benefits make aluminum a natural choice. Stamped sheets of aluminum, extrusions, and castings are expertly joined for rigidity and strength. A rigid and strong structure not only protects passengers, but also contributes to overall maneuverability behind the wheel. (Source:Bloomberg)

    I bought Panasonic Alcoa looks as if it's been knocked down a bit over the last few years, might be an opportunity as long as it's not signalling a deeper issue. Can't imagine demand for aluminum will be dropping.

    When I bought my Prius, I liked it so much I bought shares of both Toyota and Panasonic, since Panasonic made the batteries. As investments, both have been worse than worthless. Toyota is down 7% and Panasonic is down 50% since I bought them. But I got to feel that I owned something I approved of. And with tiny amounts of both, my actual dollar loss has been insignificant.

    For a year or so after I bought them they actually went up, and people on Prius Chat were shouting about what a wonderful investment Toyota was. Ha.
