I thought it would be obvious that they will have a redux of the iron-ball-against-window test. (Unless they conveniently leave it to a youtuber to include)

Makes sense. There's always this option if you want to take your Cybertruck to war.
Will the Tesla Cybertruck be bulletproof?
According to Tesla, the body of the Cybertruck is strong enough to withstand impact from a 9 mm handgun round. The body of the Cybertruck will be made of a Ultra-Hard 30X Cold-Rolled stainless-steel material. This body style will provide both protection and durability. The bulletproof Cybertruck...

Need more than a tweet on X to believe this rumor. No one else is stating this, and Polestar just had a big event a couple of days ago.

Elon already stated that CT side windows would not be able to close if made bullet proof. Not gonna be a demo.
Tesla (-3%), Rivian (-7%), Lucid (-1.5%), and Nio (-10%) are all getting beat up today. QuantumScape is also down 6%. So it looks like a sector wide sell off, not just TSLA.

Iron ball vs window has nothing to do with bullet proof.
The ball in question is the size and type thrown by Franz previously, it's not a bullet and Franz isn't a gun.
Lithium stocks too got hit. As did all auto majors. So, yes, the memo went out to shoot auto stocks, EV stocks, and anything related. Markets are down overall, but not as much as the above sectors.

The ball test wasn't about being bulletproof; it was to show damage resistance compared to typical auto windows. I would thing Tesla would want to do another demo after the sledgehammer incident breaking the last demo.

Plus its Friday.
That's interesting, didn't he beg off meeting with the India PM who was at Fremont? The PM tweeted something along the lines of "sorry you're unwell, maybe next time".
Did anyone go?
It’s rag on Polestar week. I suspect they are behind/related to the Sweden labor blockade… just a hunch due to the timing. Tesla has had a presence in Sweden for a decade, so why now?
BTW, THIS is the type of question I look forward to from X.AI. All of the hard ones, controversial as they may seem.

"Neko no me"
3 deaf Englishmen are riding the tube home from Central London. They pull into a station, and one comments "this must be Wembly". The 2nd man says "No, it's Thursday!". The 3rd one says "Me too, let's go for a pint".
Cheers to the Deaf!

Haha felt like Friday-- probably after 10 am EST so that should explain the price action...
No. He did meet Indian PM earlier this year when Modi was invited to the White House.
Last week he changed plans and had to skip meeting India's commerce minister as Elon was unwell.
I recommend in the strongest possible fashion that any interested in the health of the United States’s auto sector to visit the abovementioned thread; it is a rare privilege to see those data.
It takes some time to peruse: 45 pages with as many as 6 sets of data per page but persevere. And thank its contributor, too.
