Thestreet.com article about a weekend MS report is wrong. I emailed the author and they agree the MS article they are referring to is from 6/17. http://www.thestreet.com/story/12753066/1/why-tesla-motors-tsla-stock-is-rising-today.html

Anyone have that MS report?

Anyone know how much they would save in transport costs if it was located in Nevada as opposed to Arizona or Texas?

Who wants to laugh? So the CEO of the company said demand in the US is still growing but for some reason an analyst at Barclays thinks its plateauing because of the competition from BMW. Yes, you heard that correctly. Here's a snippet and the link.... In a note to investors, Barclays...

I recently visited a service center in NY and they me told that sales and buzz has picked dramtically since sales were banned in NJ. I guess all the press coverage got a lot of folks looking for a car a reason to go and check out the Model S. Great job Christie!!!

Agreed. Now we can redirect all of our speculative thoughts to the Gigafactory regarding if and when Panasonic will sign on.

Is the third video on the blog not working for you guys either? The first two play fine but the third one shows up blank. Tesla Adds Titanium Underbody Shield and Aluminum Deflector Plates to Model S | Blog | Tesla Motors

Tesla Business Model in N.J. `Unlawful': Appleton Anyone else see this interview? I wish it had gone on longer. The economist would have destroyed this clown. Tesla Business Model in N.J. `Unlawful': Appleton: Video - Bloomberg Man o man this guy makes me want to scream. His reasoning is...

The piece on Fast Money just now was spot on. Phil Lebeau clearly stated that the franchise laws are to protect the franchises from a manufacturer from selling directly but since Tesla doesnt have any franchises, they arent hurting anyone which makes the law not pertain to them. Its like...

Apologies if this has been answered already but will Tesla have to close the two stores? Can they not operate them as galleries?

IT ALREADY PASSED. and we call this a free market economy?

They do not intend to make money from service which is why Tesla aims to run their service centers at break even. Their model is to make a profit on the sale of the car, thats it.

Does anyone know the name or number of a similar piece of legislation that Cuomo might sign in NY? I want to call my state senator but without a bill name or number i'm afraid they wont know what i'm talking about.

Will there be a conf call?

The deal could be done and perhaps the investment bank is just combing through the final details or analyzing the current mkt to see what the final deal price will be. I hope this doesnt get pushed out till next week.

Anyone have any guesses on how much capital Elon would want to raise? If he wanted to raise 1 Billion he would only need to sell 4.5mm shares at $220. 4.5mm shares is only 3.7% of the current Shares Outstanding which doesnt sound too bad in terms of dilution. Is my logic correct?

Seems odd that in the last 2-3 hours CNBC only mentioned it once. David Faber said, "TESLA is up alot!". Thats it. No mention of the upgrade at all. No interviews. Nothing Doesnt that seem odd to everyone?

Paging Mr Kass. Mr Kass? Please pick up a white courtesy phone!

Bofa hasnt updated their targets yet but Dougherty has :) Tesla PT Raised to $325 at Dougherty & Co. vs Street Avg $176 Feb. 20 -- Tesla shrs likely to continue pricing in future successes as Street starts to expect co. to achieve 5% market share in target categories, Dougherty &...

With Teslas luck, someone will get hurt only because they weren't wearing a seat belt and the beloved media will no doubt splash headlines about Tesla's first major injury without mentioning the fact that a seat belt was not worn. This will then force Tesla to go into defensive mode once again...

You missed one of the more important ones :) China deliveries starting in March!!! Also, RHD models coming out for UK, Japan, Australia, and Singapore

Price Target Increase From DB's report: Key metrics running better-than-expected; raising target price Based on conversations with mgmt and monitoring information available on Tesla owners’ blogs, we believe that the company is on-track to modestly outperform Q3 margin expectations, that...

I agree that its been a solid performer this week. You'd think after Mondays reversal and the whole market rolling over on Tuesday it would be the perfect time for many longs to want to sell due to macro fears (Syria, Septaper, etc). You'd think a name like TSLA which is up 392% YTD would be...

Up 2% now when the Nasdaq is down 1.64%. Makes me wonder where it would be if the markets werent rolling over from the threat of another Middle East conflict. I bet she'd be over 170. The overall market volumes are way down and yet TSLA's volumes are way up. Perhaps some solid institutional...

Where are you seeing 45mm shares traded? I only see 23mm.

I feel like the luckiest guy in the world. I bought the Sept 200 Calls the day after earnings at 3.2. After TSLA peaked at 158 that day they dropped in value quickly as the Implied Vol got sucked out of them. I then bought some more at 1.94 which averaged me down to 2.57. Everyday since i've...

Pros: Get income when you think a stock wont go below the strike you choose. Cons: Highly risky, especially with volatile stocks like TSLA. The stock could quickly move below your strike yielding losses and you'd then be at risk of getting assigned. Like with all options, you can always close...

I was floored by these results. The two lines below actually made me laugh on how ridiculously good it performed. Impressive is such a weak word for these results. , the Model S refused to turn over via the normal methods and special means were needed to induce the car to roll. , which...

Remember, all these guys make money when people read their articles. Whats the best way to grab someones attention? Say the opposite of whats happening.

TSLA debate on CNBC right now. "Technical" side of argument says its going higher, has the classic look of a super growth stock. "Fundamental" side also said its going higher not only because of incrceased sales but also because of sales of parts.

True, all it needs to do now is bust out of that 152/153 range.

Barclays Downgrade, based on valution, not fundamentals, very bullish long term Here are some snippets: Compelling upside potential, but fairly valued; Downgrade to Equal Weight Tesla shares have exceeded what we view as a fair value reflecting uncertainty about Tesla’s ability to evolve...

Afraid it would head towards 160 i bought the Sept 200 Calls at today's peak (my timing is horrible) Now the i'm down since the implied vol crush happened soon after and the shares are also lower. I'll be happy is she closes above 154 and then pops tomorrow.

The prepaid lease amount is less than buying them outright because you don't own them. After the 20 year contract ends the panels are removed. Buying then outright is what it says. You own them forever. I think in going to pre pay my lease because: 1. It'll save me additional money. Laying...

What broker you using, perhaps they havent pushed them out yet. Have you logged out and logged back in?

uh oh. Didnt the bulls just get trounced by the hedge algos dropping the hammer on the sell button?

Adding to gym7rjm's point, Selling Calls yields UNLIMITED risk. If TSLA announces a killer quarter and another short squeeze ensues then your losses are limitless since the stock can theoretically go to the moon. A way a limiting your risk would be to Sell a Call Spread. If you think TSLA...

The valuation is insane but this is a growth stock in its infancy. Take a look at AMZN. It's still delivering losses with profit margins at 0.5% yet the stock continues to defy gravity. Why, because investors are betting that once they stop spending on fulfillment centers their numbers will...

What could the Whitehouse say or do?

Selling Call Spreads Selling/Writing Calls is quite a risky trade if you are just learning about options. The biggest risk with Selling (Shorting, Sell to Open, Write) Calls is that your losses can be infinite and as we've seen in the past the risk with TSLA is another monster short squeeze...

The quiet before the earnings storm.

Milford Solar Array on Google Google Maps updated. How nice is that. ZERO EMISSIONS to the max!!!! The SolarCity system proposed for my house is for 24 panels which would produce about 7,345 kWh annually. This array is 96 panels so the system should produce more than 4 times that, about...

Darien and Milford - Why so close together? Any idea why they put two stations so close to each other? The Darien station is only 29 mles from the Milford station. Perhaps the Darien station exists more for the area residents ? Darien and the surrounding towns are upper-middle to upper class...
