    Wiki Selling TSLA Options - Be the House

    Thank you for the detailed response! As for my handle, it was intended as a pun but has backfired. When I first joined TMC I was just learning about TSLA and EVs; I was interested in everything. I also dabbled in options, so I thought it was cute. Today, I still only occasionally buy calls, but...

    Hi TiVo, can you expand on this a little, please? I’m considering buying a couple of calls at close today.

    I have a couple of June $975 calls. Will probably ride them into next week and sell before earnings.

    I totally agree! What has happened here is very distressing.

    Agreed! A lower price point will open a new demographic, and costs will be kept in check by using existing lines. Seems like a recipe to sell more cars, to my pea brain.

    I would love this! And I’m sure the crowd that loves the RAV4 and CRV would go for it.

    Wiki Selling TSLA Options - Be the House

    Hello, I just found this thread and have been reading with great interest. But I am confused about one thing. What does it mean when you have a “-“ sign before an option, i.e., -p950 and -850 straddles? Does that mean these positions are losing money?

    CNBC did a short segment on Jonas’ note this morning. It was a positive piece with video of Optimus picking up an egg from an egg carton and moving it to an appliance using its fingers. It also showed the dancing bots.

    I am not buying it, he is, and probably could not swing a new car purchase. How many miles can he expect to get out of a M3? Thank you for your advice.

    Hello. My son is looking to purchase his first car, and wants a Tesla. He found a 2019 M3 LR with 70k miles for $26k. Does this seem like a fair price? He works remotely and does not drive a lot. If this is not appropriate for this forum let me know where to post it, please.

    Can we project a share price from this, if the market applies a 20 or 30 multiple? (Stupid question probably but I don’t know how to do this)

    Sad, if true. Pretty is very subjective; I personally don’t care for the humpiness of the MY but I love the look of my RAV4. It seems to me that success of the mission to accelerate the adoption of EV’s would be served by a variety of looks and styles to appeal to a variety of people. It...

    Hertz heavily promotes Tesla from the counter. In a case like that, or if they are out of other cars, the renter would not have time to prepare. I recently rented a car from Hertz, a one-way rental to help my daughter move. When I got there they did not have the car I rented and they tried to...

    Further to your Hertz comment, people often have time constraints when on vacation and don’t want to use the time to learn how to drive a new car. So a Hertz rental may not be a good fit for vacationers.

    I agree that any advertising should aim to dispel all the misinformation that has become deeply ingrained due to constant repetition of the MSM. I belong to an online group of women over a certain age who travel solo. Conversations sometimes turn to car rentals and specifically Tesla rentals...

    I first invested in 2019, well before the first split. But seeing the ATH in the rear view mirror is still sad to me, no matter when I bought. As far as holding forever, I am certainly a LT HODLR. But I am getting old and thoughts turn to funding a retirement. Also, I would like to own one of...

    Wow, I didn’t realize that Cathie had updated her projections. I will go look at that. Thank you. Yes, I remember 2020 all too well! Trouble is, I keep expecting that to happen every day, leading to much disappointment - which of course this forum understands.

    As a longtime Relationship Manager for community banks, I don’t understand how SVB could make a high concentration of loans to start-ups. Banks typically require a solid track record of profitability supported by CPA reviewed or audited statements, and collateralized by assets with values...

    I would like to understand one point. Regarding the cars in transit, have they been ordered? That is, can we assume that a sale is imminent upon delivery? If so, are we selling every car we make?

    Off topic posts about student debt forgiveness (many snippy)

    It’s not always bad life choices. It’s not about whether kids can pay or not, it’s a blanket forgiveness. There is no test for ability to pay that I know of. My oldest has med school debt up the wazoo and he’ll take a $10k reduction though it won’t matter. My youngest has a balance of about...

    Off topic posts about student debt forgiveness (many snippy)

    Yes, I was thinking the same. My son hasn’t had a payment since early in the pandemic and has been waiting for forgiveness (and here I’m a banker 🤦🏻‍♀️). But if payments were to resume at some point it would be money taken out of the economy.
