Can anyone confirm whether the Fortune article got a detail correct or wrong? Their story says that the TM-Dahn agreement comes into effect in one year - until then, Dahn's previous contract with 3M remains.

Yes, the agreement with Tesla come into effect June 2016, seen in school news and elsewhere. Of course, it is not too soon for this team to start thinking about the specific problems Tesla needs to solve. Just framing the right questions can help researchers see new connections. As they finish their work for 3M perhaps they would be giving thought to how specific materials developed for 3M might apply to Tesla's situation. The difficulty they have had with 3M is that 3M was interested in creating new materials for battery makers, but not in making the batteries themselves. Thus, they could develop something promising, 3M would pitch it to clients, but if there were no takers, that would be the end of it. I suspect at this moment it would be well in 3M's interest fir the team to evaluate all those 3M materials for potential application to Tesla. This would open the possibility for 3M to become a supplier to Tesla. If something pans out, then both 3M and Tesla win. So we've chatted about silicon anodes. Let's see if any of these move the needle for Tesla.
For once, I played a good move:I entered the week with 240 and 245 calls expiring friday, was in the red as I had been greedy and had kept them through the week-end, how stupid.... I decided on monday (as it was in the low 247...) to sell them at a loss and as I'm still bullish short term but not so sure about this week, I used the product of those sales for 2 things: majority would buy myself one more week, as I chose 250 26th June, and I "transformed" the 3 calls 240 into 11 calls 250 same expiry this friday, as lottery ticket. Break even with previous "strategy" was 255 roughly, and one more week to decide what to do. I was rewarded, for a change!
Now, crossing my fingers for today!

As a new Catholic that just took first communion at 42, I applaud Pope Francis. I will hold my TSLA shares in honour of him :biggrin:
Alevo Battery Tech to help reducing battery costs
as they are building a Li-Ion battery factory worth of 16.2 GWh.

it seems so. Swiss quality I'd say
. However, they are more focused on battery storage for utilities and this is also interesting to know:although I'm not a battery specialst who is familiar with 3rd gen LiIon battery technology...

Re the Encyclical: let's keep the discussion about it and climate change over in Energy, Environment, and Policy except to the extent you are talking about TSLA share prices.
Specifically, I copied 2 posts and moved 9 posts from here to Vatican Encyclical on Climate Change

Indeed. Will be very interesting to see if today was a bear trap. I suspect many added to their short positions or bought puts because of the neutral mood today. However, we technically closed above the upper BB for the 2nd day. Cup and handle?

It made me laugh today when I noticed an ad on TMC today that read,
"Invest in Oil & Gas while you still have the chance."
I certainly want to be among the last investors to own wells so I can tell my grandkids about the old days when oil ran the world.

Apparently Cramer said today that when the Fed predicts tepid growth of the economy, it's time to invest in red-hot tech stocks such as Palo Alto Networks, Tesla, and Ambarella. Link here.
One reader responded: Good thing Tesla cars are so safe, otherwise Jim Cramer would have whiplash from his back and forth TSLA recommendations. Tesla is going to succeed long term and we don't care what you think this week or next.

I'm not sure if JB Straubel's slide presentation from the 2015 EIA Conference has been posted. Sorry if it has been I have not seen it.
