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

    One data point added that Model Y Performance getting included in tax plan will increase orders. I just pulled the trigger! I’m guessing tesla will have to increase prices as wait times extend too, so this might be a local bottom price for these models

    I called both of my brokers and had them get me my control # for voting to make sure I voted. I had voted them already. But once you get your control #. Just go to www.proxyvote.com to enter that number and be allowed to vote. I urge all to be 100% sure all your votes have been cast...

    I’m actually wondering if they are running short of total votes to get some items passed. Probably have enough yes votes, but need a high enough ‘votes cast’ number to make some items official.

    What other tech stock to consider?

    Is anyone following the solar stocks? Solaredge, SunPower, First Solar, etc. Most of them had a run after the election, but that has cooled. First Solar didn’t have as much of a run as the others, but I’ve been eyeballing those the past couple days as investable. I’m thinking the new...

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

    Thanks for the short interest report, I had a gut feeling today with all of the specific share price capping, that we are dealing with a new round of ‘smart shorts’ who got in after this huge run-up to short their obvious overvalued target (think Burry, etc). Personally, I expect the next...

    Are we sure that S&P inclusion doesn’t mean that a gajillion shares of Tesla need to be shorted by index funds in this period instead of bought? Everything is upside down. my meager take is that MM are treating this week like every other week with option expiry targets. They know that all the...

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

    I’ve changed opinion today to think that there was no ‘accumulator’ battling MM earlier this week. I don’t see a reason to let up on Friday if that was the case. Nobody in the market is that friendly with an opposition party. That leads me to think the battle for price earlier this week was...

    B But how are you feeling now about your call to short SPY big? If you got that in last night it’s looking good so far.

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

    there are a lot of 800 puts to protect. It feels weird to have MM on our side but it makes sense that if TSLA is trading above their preferred target we are opponents, but if TSLA is trading below their preferred target we are teammates.

    Model Y March deliveries. I’m seeing orders from 2/5/20 and 2/7/20 being contacted for delivery. One of those is in Seattle and not with Autopilot option. what do I need to read into this? It seems even some early California performance Y orders have not been contacted. Is this just...

    $707, which is roughly a $57 gain today will also be a healthy 10% correction from the ATH, making it a great buying opportunity

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

    I’ve never followed a stock as closely as Tesla in my life, but others here may have so for those of you with experience tracking other stocks, do they behave in the same manner as Tesla in regards to option expiry Friday’s being controlled by the price of the options? Seems like it’s gotten...

    Back of a napkin analysis today because I couldn’t focus on anything and I was still thinking Thursday Friday of last week was a manipulation down. since the June 3 low close, this rally broken down by closing price gains per each day of the week. A million caveats apply and I don’t care...

    Poll - when will TSLA be included in S&P500?

    The pessimist in me is thinking that Q4 won’t be enough to get the last 4 qtrs +, and then Q1 2020 will be much better than Q1 2019 but will still be negative, requiring us to wait until Q2 2020 earnings are announced, and then some red tape time added in. September 2020

    I’ve also entertained this idea of an institution taking their shares out of the lendable pool. Ihor stated that institutions wouldn’t risk the hit to all their future income lending all other company shares since it would mark them as untrustworthy to recall one name to force a squeeze. On...

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

    This ‘battle’ is more like a pillow fight based on the lack of volume today. What I’ve never understood about options expiration days is why $350.01 is sooooo much worse than $349.99. If a call option expires today for $350 and then close is $350.01, how much money is someone actually making...

    Papafox's Daily TSLA Trading Charts

    Ihor’s chart today matches your short interest observations the past couple days. Still a lot of covering has been occurring. The disappointing part of it to me is the share price reduction along with short covering. That means either Ihor’s data is wrong or long-selling/profit taking swamped...

    Anyone notice an increase in range after software update to 20195.15 f5def7e

    Disappointed to report that I charged to 100% for a trip and I’m still getting the 313 miles I originally had with the car, and i’m now on version 2019.8.5 Any others seem to not get the range update. I have the release note of the Peak Power update and I am driving a February 2018 LR RWD

    Personal anecdote on Tesla Energy- a company I had talked to 3 months ago about installing solar had told me they had powerwalls on order but had no idea when they’d ever get them. Got a call this AM that they met with Tesla and are getting 50 Powerwalls within the next month. They are...

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

    My uninformed opinion of share price action lately other than watching paint dry or watching grass grow..... Bulls know the Bears won’t let the price get to a 360 VWAP before the conversion, so sideline instead of pushing against a wall. Bears know that Bulls won’t let the share price slide...

    I agree that Tesla is smarter with cash than they were previously, but I also agree that they have slowed the pace of growth. Don’t discount the facts that we have to interpret because we all want the stock to appreciate. A few of the posters above have well laid out posts describing the...

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

    I stumbled on a TeslaQ daily countdown tweet of the days left of the VWAP period and the daily moving average of VWAP. So there is a subset of shorts that still think the bond conversion will cause the beginning of the end of Tesla. I would assume there is some money behind that mindset that...

    Shoot. I messed up in my Capex summary of teslaQ complaints. That should read as 2018 Capex. Total 2018 Capex came in far below forecast 2018 Capex, indicating to teslaQ that Tesla didn’t have the cash to fund as much Capex as they wanted to.
