    Tesla, TSLA & the Investment World: the Perpetual Investors' Roundtable

    Agreed. Among other points, the above point is even overlooked by a lot of Tesla bulls. In below tweet, Cobra Kai is referring to Dojo. I remember in other Dojo related Elon tweets, when someone asked if Dojo will be available to other people for NN training, Elon said Yes. That mean Tesla...

    Great found. If you look at the last year's schedule, the September rebalancing is also the only quarter that gives 2 weeks notice. I guess we'll know one way or another after closing this Friday.

    To achieve 10 billion km actually doesn't take long. There're close to 1 million FSD capable Tesla cars right now. Assume each car runs 12k miles per year. 10 billion km is 6 billion miles. It will only take about half year with 1 million cars.

    Great post. @Artful Dodger Sounds like a share count audit when doing Stock Dividend. Do you think it will be different if doing regular stock split? What will prevent MM to do a naked split when they can do naked short?

    How exciting. Imagine the future, 90% of the cars will have Tesla Inside logo. Tesla becomes Intel/Microsoft in one. Very possible IMO.

    Could your profile name means Black Swan which is one of the books from the same author?;) Great books BTW.

    Some analysts expect 7 to 10 days according to Barrons' article yesterday A Tesla Bull Expects a Big Offering of New Equity if Company Gets Into S&P 500 . But I also heard someone expect it to be few weeks.

    But that's huge advertisement for Tesla with millions of people from all around country/world moving through.

    Totally make sense. Enemy's enemy is your friend.:p

    What's TSLA price by Friday 7/24 if it posts Q2 GAAP profit?

    Sorry, system doesn't allow to change the end date/time. But, ER call will start at 2:30pm and poll will close at 3:27pm. You should have fair amount of time in between to cast your vote.

    What's TSLA price by Friday 7/24 if it posts Q2 GAAP profit?

    Good point. Profitable without ZEV credits is a big positive and great PR. "break even" Elon was referring to could mean without ZEV credits. That's what makes Elon excited.

    What's TSLA price by Friday 7/24 if it posts Q2 GAAP profit?

    I don't think amount of profit matters this time unless it's huge which is unlikely IMO. All eyes on S&P 500 inclusion.

    Tesla, TSLA & the Investment World: the Perpetual Investors' Roundtable

    I created a poll to see what everyone think the price level will be by Friday if TSLA posts Q2 GAAP profit. What's TSLA price by Friday 7/24 if it posts Q2 GAAP profit?

    Forming a nice base at $1500 before ER. Bought a few 1500/1700 vertical for next week.

    I know we talked about Tesla service problems here a lot like beating a dead horse. Hopefully they're addressing it this time "behind the curtain" for real.

    First profitable quarter that makes TSLA eligible for S&P is coming.

    Wondering if it will be under Tesla or SpaceX if true.

    Tesla, TSLA & the Investment World: the Perpetual Investors' Roundtable

    Agreed. It's only logical that Thursday $550k option buyer is the same whale did the buying Friday. IMO, $550k option bought Thursday is not the gamble or collusion for one time quick profit as most of the people suspected. It's part of the share purchase plan executed Friday. If the raise...

    Conspiracy theory. Is it possible S&P committee wants to front run the ER? Next week would be the final chance.

    Good to see TSLA consolidate around $1400. Refueling for next stage BURN.

    The big question is what everyone is waiting/looking for. Are we golden if Tesla generates at least $1 GAAP profit?

    Elon "I think I remain confident that we will have the basic functionality for level five autonomy complete this year."

    Tesla, TSLA & the Investment World: the Perpetual Investors' Roundtable

    @engle Great post. I'm wondering the timing of the inclusion. Why are you predicting 9/28/2020 inclusion date? I heard from a few people that the inclusion normally happens about 2 weeks after ER and 10Q release. That puts the timing around middle of the August. Happy to hear your reason.

    From Adam Jonas, "what we believe to be inevitable competition in EVs and AVs from a host of well capitalized tech firms (AMZN, AAPL, GOOGL, etc.) are just not seen by the market as a big enough part of the narrative for the remainder of 2020". I guess legacy auto maker didn't work well for his...

    LOL "high-quality shorts". That's the words I'm looking for. No wonder those shorts lasted so long.

    It feels like Tesla will soon close the first chapter which is about survival and fighting shortz. The new chapter will begin after joining S&P500. I personally also feel soooooo satisfying. Bought two pairs, one for wife and one for souvenir.

    Got rating change alert from my IB app. Seems one analyst changed TSLA from outperform to buy. Does anyone know which one?

    If TSLA could hit $1700 this year, that would be real memorable 10-year anniversary with 10,000% return. Not impossible if a few stars can be aligned.

    Tesla, TSLA & the Investment World: the Perpetual Investors' Roundtable

    I think 80K to maintain $1000. My number is 90K and could send TSLA to $1100.

    Tesla, TSLA & the Investment World: the Perpetual Investors' Roundtable

    I suddenly have a crazy thought. What if S&P500 has secretly reached out to Tesla and told them they will be guaranteed a seat in the club if they can produce even a dollar profit in Q2 ...

    Paydirt's (TSLA) Option Investing Guide

    If we keep getting into arguments of how expensive options are, you missed the whole point of @paydirt76 post. He’s not telling you to buy any specific option. He’s showing us his strategies and tactics of using options. I’ve learned a lot so far and eager to see the rest.

    Waiting for Elon's dance. Elon Musk refused to break out his dad dancing after the Crew Dragon's successful safety test, but promised to bring it back after the spacecraft's launch

    If Elon is a normal Joe, we wouldn't have Tesla and SpaceX today. I'm not a genius, so I don't pretend I understand what's going through Elon's mind right now. But I trust him with all my money.

    It's disappointing to see what happened to two of the most valuable members. What about giving "off topic" decision to each member or members with a certain status by adding "off topic" rating. And then let every member set their own "off topic" threshold. If the "off topic" rating is over...
