    Interesting Company, why is it traded OTC?

    Elon Speaks with NVIDIA CEO Jen-Hsun Huang 3/17/2015

    Thanks for posting. I was looking for that interview but couldn't find it.

    Bummer for SCTY:(. I was hoping for a short squeeze after earnings.

    SolarCity (SCTY)

    SCTY earnings is this Wednesday. Anyone have any thoughts on it? They had a good run up the last couple weeks but I think they could report ok and the momentum could keep going. I'm not sure what the short interest is now but at one point about a month ago I beleive it was at 40%.

    Thanks for the laugh:). I didn't realize their were so many pain points in operating a I8.

    SolarCity (SCTY)

    SCTY finally sees a little green. Maybe because TSLA is having a good day it is following suit or maybe because the market is up I don't know. But I'll take it!

    SolarCity (SCTY)

    Yeah im in the same boat. I wanted to buy some more today on a 6% drop but didn't want to over do in case it fell even farther tomorrow. I am happy to see SCTY up a little in the after hours even though I know that means nothing.

    Curt- I'm curious if your buying SCTY now that the price has come down quite a bit? I know you were holding off for a pull back, is this it or do you see it dropping more?

    SolarCity (SCTY)

    You called it Curt. I started buying too early and my SCTY leaps are pretty deep in the red. I did save some cash just in case it went south so I bought some more SCTY leaps today. Hope SCTY can recover a little tomorrow.

    GoPro has had wifi connecting to a smart phone for quite a while. But it is kind of a pain point to connect the two. Their goal is to eliminate all pain points from capturing, editing and sharing amazing content. My mom got a IPhone a couple of years ago and she can use it pretty good. I don't...

    GPRO had another up day when most Memo's stocks were down. GoPro CEO was asks if he was concerned about the high stock price and he responed pretty good: WOODMAN: NO IT DOESN'T CONCERN ME. I MEAN, LOOK, STOCK PRICES WILL GO UP, STOCK PRICES WILL GO DOWN. WE CAN'T CONTROL THAT. IT'S IMPORTANT...

    What other tech stock to consider?

    Nice job! I am kinda bummed I sold all my calls that expired next month but I made a good profit and I still have all my leaps and I'm just gonna keep those until 1 week from expiration. Let's see how far it can go! And if it does crash back down I'll buy some more.

    What other tech stock to consider?

    I agree the square shape doesn't seem as streamlined as the cylinder shape. But no one seems to mind. I think it would be hard to add an lcd screen to a cylinder shape camera. And to make it truly user friendly (which is GoPros main goal). They need an lcd screen on the back. The current...

    I just had my first child and before the birth I asked the doctor if I could have my GoPro on my head and film the whole thing. She said oh yeah, a lot of dads have been using the GoPro to film the birth. So they are the brand to have for wearable cameras. They keep improving their app and...

    And GPRO is at it again. I sold all my short term calls way to early. I still have all my leaps that look really good but I was hoping to accumulate more shares before the price got this high.

    SolarCity (SCTY)

    Curt, I found this article that talks a little about Vivint Solar and Solar City. I posted the link just because it talks about how Solar City has a 30% market share and Vivint Solar only has about 9%. Vivint Solar will be valued around 2 billion where Solar City is valued around 6 billion...

    SolarCity (SCTY)

    Thanks for the heads up on the solar IPO Curt. I take it your referring to Vivint Solar Inc.? Is it possible that Vivint Solar could boost SCTY by bringing attention to the solar stocks? I don't see people selling SCTY to buy this new solar stock.

    I bought a few SCTY calls and leaps today. Seemed like a good time to get back in with everyone distracted with BABA. Hoping for a good week for SCTY next week!

    Short-Term TSLA Price Movements - 2014

    I was kinda bummed Elon said the stock price was a little high. But he also said long term it is a good deal. All the momentum stocks were down today ( SCTY-8%, MBLY-6%, YELP-6%, NFLX-5% TWTR-5%...) so maybe it had nothing to do with Elons comments. Or maybe a little but not the main reason...

    What other tech stock to consider?

    I bought a bunch of GPRO calls and leaps when it dipped to $38 after earnings. I recently sold off all my calls on the run up but still have my leaps. I too will be buying more on any dips. The stock was heavily shorted so I'm not sure if the run up was a short squeeze or if it is still...

    Short-Term TSLA Price Movements - 2014

    I was at the Mission Viejo store about a month and a half ago and noticed they only had one car when they previously had 2. I was thinking the same thing about the Model X. I asked what happened to the other car and they said they needed it for the test drive events.

    So Elon says the stock value is a little high right now. 6 months ago they did that Capital raise at what like $250-$260? Today's price is only about 15% above that. So how is it overvalued now? The Gigafactory is actually being made now.

    What other tech stock to consider?

    Yeah nice job keeping your shares. I could see hitting $100 also with the GoPro channel. I'm wondering if they're working on a deal with Apple to have a channel on the Apple TV. RedBull has a Apple TV channel and it is pretty much a GoPro channel because everyone is wearing one and it is...

    What other tech stock to consider?

    GPRO was up 10-11% today. I sold off most of my options for 200-300% gains which is nice. I still hold one Jan 15 option and some Jan 16 leaps. I can't believe how well GPRO has done in the last few weeks. It almost seems like a cult stock. Because I don't know what they will be worth or...

    Thx AIMc, that's a good rule u have about playing with the houses money. I did sell one of my GPRO options today but I'm hoping to get a little more out of the rest. Hope I'm not being too greedy but the Oct 18th 40 calls I have, have absolutely no time value what so ever, so if I keep them a...

    What other tech stock to consider?

    John Fichthorn said 2 weeks ago he was short TSLA and GPRO. He might have been able to cover his TSLA position when we dipped into the $255 range but I've been following GPRO everyday and GPRO was at $38 when he shorted it and there has never been a day since that he could have made money. I...

    What other tech stock to consider?

    GPRO has a high short interest from what I read. Yesterday John Fichthorn said he is Short GPRO and TSLA. They both seem to be doing well today. GPRO is up 3% today and seemed to have good support at $38. I wonder if GPRO could see a short squeeze.

    Stolen Model S crashes after police pursuit. 7/4/14

    I did a quick google search and it seems all new poles need to have a breakaway feature. Which I think are the poles that are bolted down. That one street lamp was not bolted down so I'm assuming it did not have a breakaway feature and it probably should have been removed. Here is a link...

    Stolen Model S crashes after police pursuit. 7/4/14

    weird how there looks to be 2 light poles right next to each other. The street lamp all by itself seems pointless because the traffic light that is about 10 feet away also has a street light on it. Maybe the street lamp all by itself is old and they never removed it. It is cemented in the...

    What other tech stock to consider?

    Is anyone buying GPRO on this dip? I'm tempted to but i'm gonna waiting for hopefully it to get to $38. Maybe i'll miss the boat by getting greedy. It looks like next week options will be available. Can that put downward pressure on the stock?
  33. Chrisr400cc

    What other tech stock to consider?

    I never had a chance to get back in like I wanted. By the the time I got some buying power back it just took off again. Kinda unbelievable. I wish I took your advice and sold half at $40 and half at $47. I sold all at $40. I'm hoping for a pull back so I could get back in.
  34. Chrisr400cc

    What other tech stock to consider?

    I would buy back in today at $37 but I have to wait for my trade to settle. If it goes to $35 next week I will buy back in.

    HaHaHa- yeah I did disappoint myself cashing out but It just went up too fast for me and I had bought it on Margin (didn't want to sell any of my TSLA). My wife and I love the GoPro and I hope this one settles down so I can get us both in. Any idea when options will be available for GPRO...

    What other tech stock to consider?

    I planned on keeping my shares longer than one day but I couldn't resist. I cashed out at $40 in hopes to buy some more shares on a dip next week.
  37. Chrisr400cc

    What other tech stock to consider?

    I agree. I will be looking to add as well. I had a feeling the IPO would take off the first day. So far it looks to be holding just above $31. Maybe in a few weeks I will try and buy a leap.

    What other tech stock to consider?

    Clmason- I'm curious what price you got in at. I was ready at 8:00 when they started trading and it was already up like 30%. I ended up taking a small position at $31. Hope it was the right move because i've been waiting to have a stake in GoPro just don't know if i over paid. If not, it...

    Off-Road Ability of Model X?

    Thanks for sharing Cottonwood. Cool car. I've never seen this off road vehicle before. After watching some YouTube clips of it race I kept noticing engine noise when it passed by he camera. I think it has a range extending gas engine like the Volt. It is still better then anything else out...

    What other tech stock to consider?

    Your right. When I'm on vacation it's mostly the GoPro I use or cell phone. I rarely use a real camera anymore. The GoPro is great for selfie and groupie pictures too. The fisheye lens really captures the moment.

    Will Model X have all-wheel steering?

    I was reading the conversation and I can't understand why does the Model X have only two motors and the SLS has 4? Is it more efficient to have 2 big motors vs. 4 smaller ones maybe?

    What other tech stock to consider?

    I would love to own a stake in GoPro. What is the valuation going to be? I know these IPO's like to double the first day then come back down and I don't think I'm allowed to trade opening day IPO's but I could be wrong.

    Donations to me doesn't seem like they'll help this company ( I know they wouldn't hurt). Maybe I'm being negative but isn't what this company needs is a Angel Investor? Like how Elon funded Tesla and saved it and guided it in the right direction. If a entrepreneur with some money stepped up...

    Off-Road Ability of Model X?

    I wonder when the day will come when a all electric vehicle will win the Baja 1000 (or Baja 500 would probably happen first) Done up right the Model X could do it. They would have to do a few battery swaps along the way, maybe a custom trailer rig they could pull up on and do the swap. It...

    Model X Option Speculation

    I was thinking a tow option also. Many car companies offer a tow option upgrade. I was thinking 5,000lbs, thats what my old 2000 Frontier could tow. I didn't realize horse trailers weigh so much. I don't expect the Model X to tow what a half ton truck can but at least comparable to a quarter...

    I love the Model X and the Falcon wing doors and so does my wife. We are having our first baby this October. The only problem I see with the Model X is that it's too expensive for the demographic. It seems to be the perfect baby mobile with the Falcon Wing doors but I don't see people...
