After 2 days is still can't digest Elon's sentence: "It's people against Uber...". I trust the guy, it has always been the case, but now I think his mouth was faster than his brains (people love Uber as a service) as if he was getting used to be under the spotlights lately
Nothing changes for me, I'm 99.9% with him (instead of 100), but can anyone give me some color on this please?
Follow the money. The money goes to Tesla car owners and not to Uber.
Marshal law, what a joke
Maybe a curfew too,
Call the national guard .

Thanks for pointing this out. I too think there is some large scale deal that EM has pending. IIRC just a week or two before his June announcement regarding SCTY/TSLA merger, he had met for a long time with Ash Carter (Secretary of Defense). Maybe just a coincidence or some underlying motivator for Elon?
And that opportunity cost is reflected in the fully diluted earnings per share number that all companies publish anyways. There is no need to muddy up the COMPANY's earnings statement with something that reflects the company's ownership structure. The shareholders and the company are two separate things. The company stands alone as an entity and its financial statements should reflect how that entity operates.
In addition, very few public companies raise money through equity offerings every year. So you mess up ALL company's earnings, and EPS (while you have full diluted EPS which takes stock based compensation into account) to take into account opportunity cost for the few growth companies that sell new equity every year?
No, he was wrong about Trump getting the nomination.
There are a lot of factors that go into evaluating stocks, the direction, what moves them and doesn't. The EV game is new to many people, a game changer so to speak. This ain't your father's Oldsmobile and the same can be said for understanding the stock price.

Tesla.com doesn't seem to have a livestream link up yet. From past events, I would keep checking the main page at www.tesla.com - they should have a link there by 5:15 or so.
Here is Electrek's live blog in case it all goes south:

@myusername I agree with you, Elon probably didn't expect the stock to be where it is now. It makes no difference to me. I already voted and would cast my vote "FOR" even if the stock goes to 2 dollars a share.
My support to Elon and Tesla is not based on stock price. I am convinced Tesla is doing great things for the world, and they are working really hard. Base on my research, Tesla is clearly turning into a giant in the next few years.
I am willing to donate all my money to Tesla when they need it. I retired from my engineering job a few years ago. I plan to go back to work again, as a volunteer. I can automate any production process, including wire harness and motor production. Of course Tesla can achieve full automation without me. I also understand they have a lot of tasks on their plate with tight schedules. I am going to do my part to help.

No. He had a terrible record, if I remember correctly, in predicting the Republican primary. But he is usually regarded as the best in part because he does no polling himself.
Edit: The regular pollsters also missed the early Trump effect.

There's a countdown clock on the Livestream....is that wise??? How many numbers can it go negative? Maybe limited to on time start by the sun? Hint to future Tesla event planners, have some intractable deadline that makes events start on time.
Edit: As I was typing, countdown clock went away...not a good sign.

This is how he did in 2012
Was Nate Silver the Most Accurate 2012 Election Pundit? - CFAR
Been following Nate since 2008....he's good.
Designed the Pecota baseball statistical modeling system over a decade ago...turned his attention to politics soon after. Wanted to take some of the horse-racy, speculative analysis out of the system. His book, The Signal and the Noise is a good read. Will help you understand the success of Tesla and SpaceX increased the probability of electric car adoption and interplanetary transport/colonization expotentially. Probability, while still low, is growing quickly.
Advocate of Bayes Theorem for prababalistic modeling. (Now obviously bored with house music from solar roof event). Bayes' theorem - Wikipedia
