    Tesla customer service miss & bad PR

    "Tesla turns out to be the new Verizon, hey, who knew?" I heard this listening to a popular geek podcast, "This Week in Google". Leo repeated a bad customer service experience as he was trying to configure his Model X. You can find it at time index of 44:30 of expisode 336 This Week in...

    Tesla prediction revisited

    Trading bug?

    What if the shorting activity is somewhat based on a bug in the trading analysis engines out there. Think about it, an algorithm is only as good as the model it is based on. Tesla is an anomaly. The level of short interest. An upstart in a mature heavily understood market. As a result...
