They would need new melting furnaces, because the melt furnaces are powered by gas now. So this is not easy.Could Tesla use rooftop solar and megapacks in a meaningful time or manner to offset a Russian gas cutoff to Germany including possibility GigaBerlin? It seems a likely necessity in the long run anyway.

Whether we like it or not, Twitter is affecting tesla stock in a negative way.
Are you talking about the ones for the gigacasting machines? Or do they do other casting on-site as well?They would need new melting furnaces, because the melt furnaces are powered by gas now. So this is not easy.
Yeah I agree with this. Another shutdown to start a quarter would be real bad. Guess we will see how determined China is to maintain this zero-COVID policy.What I am concerned about (not Twitter, as I consider this to be just all noise, no signal) is another potential COVID lockdown in Shanghai. We all know the media is going to spin Q2 numbers to make it look like Tesla is doing worse than it is. Sequential quarters of bad numbers, regardless of the reasons, will make it exponentially easier for the media and FUDsters to argue that TSLA is over-valued.
It's clear that this new variant of COVID is accelerating. I will be keenly watching for any messaging from China about testing, infection rates, etc. If Xi announced China was relaxing their zero-COVID policy (highly unlikely IMO), I think the entire stock market would spike, and TSLA would spike much higher than the rest of the market. One can hope.....
Elon's "antics" made a few folks around these parts wealthier than they ever could have imagined, so not sure you'll get a lot of support on your point of viewI don't think a lawsuit is in anyone's best interest, but I agree he's more of a liability than an asset to Tesla at this point.
Almost everyone on this board vehemently disagrees with that, though, and unless Elon chooses to move on from Tesla (which i would be ASTOUNDED by) there's really nothing that can be done.
Worse than this... seems the recall fix is causing another issue.2021-22 Mustang Mach-E owners slap Ford with federal lawsuit over safety defect
Ford is hit with its second lawsuit seeking class-action status, claiming company should've known of defects, this time in the Mustang Mach-E.www.freep.com
Yep, big fat grin on my face with this news.
They need to put some time between Xi’s recent comments about committing to zero COVID and any major changes in policy.Yeah I agree with this. Another shutdown to start a quarter would be real bad. Guess we will see how determined China is to maintain this zero-COVID policy.
I expect to see weekly China fear mongering FUD articles……it’s the new “demand worries” for TSLA.They need to put some time between Xi’s recent comments about committing to zero COVID and any major changes in policy.
Last week’s mini-freak out here and elsewhere on the internet over a case spike and more mass testing ended in…the blame being put on a few locations, with business licenses revoked. That allows Shanghai government to look like they’re taking the situation very seriously while not going back into massive lockdowns.
Once again, I’m not saying giga Shanghai won’t undergo another forced shutdown, but try to temper any worries. There’s a lot of bad information out there.
I might have a little insider knowledge about this particular suit I heard about the filing about two weeks ago .....2021-22 Mustang Mach-E owners slap Ford with federal lawsuit over safety defect

And only recalled in some places - I checked 2020-22 for UK recalls.Worse than this... seems the recall fix is causing another issue.
Here's to hoping that *IF* Germany goes to level 3, that Giga Berlin will get full energy needs met. July 21st, the pipeline is supposed to be turned back on...
Europe on high alert as Russia temporarily halts gas flows via major pipeline
Europe fears the suspension of deliveries could be extended beyond the 10-day timeline, derailing the region's winter supply preparations.www.cnbc.com
"Analysts at political risk consultancy Eurasia Group said that if Putin orchestrated a total cutoff of gas supplies beyond the scheduled end of maintenance works on the Nord Stream 1 pipeline, Germany would likely be forced to move to level three of its three-stage emergency gas plan.
At this level, Germany’s regulator, Bundesnetzagentur, would need to decide how to distribute gas supplies nationwide."
Just another chance for some more chairs?I'm looking at this unfounded $47 drop today thinking....boy I can't wait for the $47 up days after the split
