Short-Term TSLA Price Movements - 2013

[Citizen-T]

I don't think he would have tweeted anything at all if there was an offering in the works.

"Something else this week"....

TSLA going to sell more equity and do a quick cash raise? This is a great idea at this point...

No, this is going to be the Battery Swap announcement. My story on it is out (albeit with ugly edits), and I've seen competing stuff on Seeking Alpha and derivative pieces from both.

So Elon needs to get the official announcement out to clear things up.

4% already.. wow..

Dear God:

May I one day have the ability to add $500 million to a stocks' market cap by tweeting: "Something happening this week".

Seriously, like he needed a new TV or something, bought a few shares, tweeted, sold them and is off to the store.

I literally lolled at this.

I don't think so.
I'm going to have to say no reservation deposit.

Wish Elon would just be more specific re: timeframe of this week's announcement.

They got to get their logistics squared away. They are being forced into the Battery Swap announcement early.

34M shares traded hands today! Thats higher than the last 3 trading days! There must be some serious support to keep the stock from tumbling with so many shares being traded. Maybe we won't have a huge selloff at the end of all of this. Disappointing, I was looking forward to buying at $65

Why do you say they are being "forced"?

He never is. Watch for press announcements.

 

[CapitalistOppressor]

Why do you say they are being "forced"?

Because the media are already writing about it. The "mystery" announcement will rapidly lose value if its not a mystery anymore.

That must be some TV - admittedly the sony 84X900 comes close.

 

[nygiants242]

I'm still not convinced it is an actual swap haha

It handled falling to the low $80's really well. Then of course Super Elon came in and added more charge into it.

This sub-forum is rapidly becoming the most stressful part of my life - and I'm sitting on a massive profit. This makes no sense.

So did I. Thanks for the laugh!

Ah. Got it. Thanks. Can you provide the thread on "your story"? I can't seem to find in in your post history...

Thanks in advance.

Anyone buying a short term long position here? We have seen Tuesdays sell off and a gap open up the next morning.

Is Tesla About To Offer Battery-Pack Swapping For Model S?

I apologize in advance for the writing. I wrote it quickly on Saturday as a piece for investors on Seeking Alpha, but when I switched to Green Car Reports, they (IMO) mangled it to refocus on their own readers. As a result some of the sentences no longer conform to the normal rules of grammar, lol.
