you are right - and so I came back in at 252. Telling myself this thing will be north of 400 by 2020 so I`ll be still happy I can sell my shares tax free.

In case you're interested: 527 earthquakes 4.0 or greater worldwide...in the last 30 days.

The upgrade certainly helped as it keeps it 10.00 away from the offering price which is the line in the sand. It could have dropped below which would not have been good. Congrats to long shareholders. This certainly takes alot of pressure off.

I don't understand these people who are trying to ruin my enjoyment of a $16K unrealized gain this morning before I've even had my bagel.
It might be relevant if it had the possibility of effecting the Tesla plant. I appreciated the heads up. Looks like a non-issue, but you can't always know that at the point the news is breaking.

Booyah!

Stock goes up, stock goes down, time marches onward.
I was a little worried about staying long (covered long, but still....), but then I read a bunch of gloom and doom here at TMC over the weekend. Which, oddly enough, boosted my confidence in TSLA.

Are you kidding? Tesla has only one factory. It is in an area that is affected by earthquakes and there's a lot of scientific opinion that says "the big one" is due. I hope you don't think the stock will be unaffected by a major quake in this region, because it will affect - in the short term - employees at their homes, employees trying to get to work, power supply to the factory, transport of finished cars away from the factory by rail and so on.
Maybe 4.1 isn't that big of a deal, but we should all feel a lot more comfortable once the Gigafactory opens, and then when main production factory #2 opens (hopefully in a less risky geographical location).

The Tesla factory is not located in San Francisco. Just a couple weeks ago there was a slightly smaller earthquake that hit just a few miles from the factory and nothing happened. So why a similiar one quite a distance further away should be given any kind of importance is a mystery to me. I suppose there's a possibility of it affecting the port of Oakland...

*sigh* One hit a couple weeks ago just down the road from the factory? It was a non-starter. Then there was the discussion about building code, fault lines etc that ensued to clarify just how much sleep we shouldn't be losing. Are you suggesting that the majority of production employees live in San Francisco and work in Fremont? LOL! Perspective and logic please.
It's not a big deal. Is there risk...well, yeah. Is it worth thinking about for more than a minute on our initial TSLA purchases....no.
4.0 is a rather minor quake for the Bay Area. When I lived there in the mid-eighties we experienced several over 6.0 and none caused significant damage, although one did a few years later. 6.0 is 100 times more energetic than 4.0 on the exponential Richter scale. Bay Area structures are built to withstand rather severe earthquakes, most especially after 1989.

Sorry I posted that. That's fine if you don't consider it noteworthy. I am interested in that area and if a single crane operator can take the factory offline for two days then I like to be aware of the region.

Well the crane shut everything down; that was newsworthy.
4.0 earthquake is a non-event, but definitely any kind of earthquake in that region is cause for concern. Especially to northeasterners and midwesterners who don't think that stuff is routine.

It's not that it's not noteworthy in and of itself. This is the short term investment thread. What amounts to little more than an annoying tremor for Bay Area residents does not have any affect on TSLA. If not for this MS report, I'm not even sure the two day unscheduled factory shutdown affects TSLA in the interim. The factory has been shutdown before and it didn't have any bearing on the stock until ERs came out to confirm shortfalls in targets/revenues etc...
