Are you also investing in Tesla?

Which is the reason why I am pro Tesla. I saw an advert the other day for Ford Focus all electric. I was thinking "hmmm that could be quite good!", the price is OK! But the range is 100 miles, which is less than the lowest Tesla range.
Not very convinced about other manufacturers making decent electric vehicles!

Yeah, both the Focus EV and the GM Spark are conversions. Like Microsoft's Zune, why did the even bother?!
I tend to agree but on the other side at least they are coming around to making EVs. I so wanted Audi to make a full EV from the ground up but instead they announced a converted Golf/A3 EV program. So pedestrian. Good news for us Tesla backers is that the slow and painful adaption of EV tech by the existing automakers leaves a huge opening for Tesla and it's truly ground breaking all EV designs. When you pit a converted ICE->EV against a Tesla there is really no comparison. I just hope the rest of the auto world does not get their *sugar* together before the Bluestar is out (BMW i, maybe).
Bad rule. See the old Soviet Union.One of my rule of thumb in investing is if you can blast a rocket into space, you can probably manage to build a car
I didn't know the USSR was publicly traded? Surely it was brought down by Ronald Reagan shorting enough of its stock!
So I want another buy in before they deliver any Model Ss. How low do you think I should hold out for? I have a feeling there will be a steady build to July 1. But I don't when it will start.

ES, did you mean that post to go in the "are ICE manufacturers dead" thread? More appropriate I think than investing in TSLA.

Low volume, wild swings.
Setting-up for a wild upswing. (wee need some good news comming out of Tesla)

I'm really beginning to wonder if I am right. I think if we break out to around $40-45 we will see a short squeeze, since the majority of shorts will be nearly 100% under water. I'm guessing the majority shorted around $20-22. This could explain why their is so much downward momentum. Just a thought. Even the slightest bit of good news could trigger a 10% jump, that would bring us to $37. This might scare some shorts, and could force them to cover. Shorts don't typically panic, but upon getting a margin call, they may be forced. Anyone else think this?

Downward momentum? The stock hasn't done much of anything for 2 weeks.

No Cali, you're on your own there. Short term, < 2 years, maybe it'll go up, maybe it'll go down. It really doesn't matter. It's the long term that matters.
@vfx, I just use my Vanguard account. $7 trades. Not great for daytrading obviously, but perfect for the occasional buy and sell.

Tesla is following the market today. Down day.
But it's holding well and above 33 since a few weeks. Happy days are coming

Fidelity with $7.95 trades. Nothing fancier.
I like cali's (and, to some extent, Steph's) enthusiasm and constant tracking of the way the stock's moving (or not) - "long" is not in their dictionary
I am long, not even thinking of trading before it hits $100. But i like to look at it and comment on it, the story is great and unfolding a bit more everyday, very exciting to follow.
