Which random number generator was used?

Same one Jonas uses.

1.47M shares traded in the past 15 min. We got a RUNNER!

New intraday ATM: $1,952.38

Cheers to the LONGS!

Someone had a double colonoscopy, followed by a hemorrhoidectomy today

 

[Tslynk67]

So $1990 is the new $1890, boring!!! Get on with it!!!

 

[Artful Dodger]

I think we might have to hold a moment of silence for the TMC poster who opened 9x $1,830 - $1,930 straddle yesterday. That trade must be starting to get quite painful at this point.

Nawrh, I like da guy that sold 10% of his TSLA yesterday (above $1900 no less!) because he herd there's worry ahead...

Cheers!

On the contrary, a split IS news, and the coverage of the topic is very poor. The AMZN reference is not relevant to this discussion and your suggestion is illogical (not sure which logical fallacy fits, but it's there, I'm sure):

Thou shalt not commit logical fallacies

As to why this DOES matter, well, let the data speak for itself:

Stock Splits - Research Says Stock Splits Beat The Market

The split stock group performed 8% better than the control group after one year, and 16% better after three years.

And:

Does a Stock Price Typically Go Up After a Forward Split?

Please advise if you feel the studies methodology were flawed or otherwise in error, or if you have any contradictory data.

Thank you.

Correlation is not causation. Looking at actual data apparently doesn't cause you to understand what you're seeing (although if you're lucky it's correlated). Perhaps you would do well to peruse the spurious correlations site. Actually, everyone would no doubt enjoy learning of the close relationship between the number of suicides by hanging, strangulation and suffocation and the number of lawyers in North Carolina.

Hugh OI at the $2000 strike price. Nearly there.

This is killer whales hunting in open water. Watch for the plunge after the Calls execute. This could be a strategy to accumulate b4 S&P 500 announcement.

Plunge of what? Plunge of OI or plunge of SP?

Just making sure I understand...

Does the pinned 'Great Filter' tweet stand for the S&P selection commitee?

10:45 ET

Not sure but rob Maurer interviews Jim Cramer was post on the street around that time.

Well, tomorrow is the start of the 1 week "lock up period" (Aug 21-28) after which the 5 for 1 split will officially take place. Do we know exactly what's going to happen this coming week? Probably nothing, since there is no reason to buy or sell during a lock up period?

Hopefully, Giga Austin gets a week closer to making my Cybertruck.

Having grown up in a family ravaged by mental illness, I truly thought Elon

Elon was bullied as a child, and he won. Now he's spanking the shortzes. All the rest is Media lies. Don't you know this by now?

 

[UncaNed]

Umm there's a very obvious reason as to why people are speculating. Seeing a stock go up or down throughout a day, even 4-7% is nothing to speculate about.

Seeing a stock go completely vertical in the matter of 5 mins on very strong volume is very much worth speculating. Could be nothing of course. But what happened 20-30 minsa go was very unnatural stock trading action

Not for TSLA it isn't.

You new here???

Maybe this news is one cause of the SP rise today: Rideshare operations are being suspended in California

If Uber & Co can't be profitable with their current driving model, then Tesla with FSD may have quite an opportunity to take the cake after their .9999 march.

 

[wipster]

Damn, maybe I should take a nap...

 

[Sanny]

This is the best explanation of his weird tweets I have seen so far!

Actionable advise, almost serious! We need to trace whoever came up with that explanation first and if it turns to be true we need to collectively hire this person as a trading advisor with huge salary and bonuses.

It's a Mars colonization reference.

Horses not zebras.

 

[Nocturnal]

Snake jazz is a Rick and Morty reference btw, in case anyone was still wondering.

I believe there is a good reason SP is held at 199X for so long. I don't think NASDAQ is prepared the TSLA Y2K comes so soon. They are actively upgrading the system to handle the potential system crash.

Yeah I know what the Great Filter is. Thought it might be a cryptic tweet as well. Or they are just horses, what do I know.

EDIT: Typo

Wow, there's a huge new hit piece in Forbes.com, but then there's this at the end:

Disclosure: David Trainer, Kyle Guske II, and Matt Shuler receive no compensation to write about any specific stock, sector, style, or theme.

How can this be true? I can only assume, given the vast number of absurd statements and assumptions in the article, that there are shorts involved here.

Obviously, they recieve compensation for writing about multiple stocks in multiple sectors and some are bullish and others are bearish!
