    Stock holder option to jump in line

    I received my invitation to order a Foundation Series on Friday, May 10. I had a very early 2016 X P90D #417 and originally thought maybe I should wait until production is ramped more and they've gotten some of the kinks out. Then I checked into the configuration and realized that if I order the...

    Tesla, TSLA & the Investment World: the Perpetual Investors' Roundtable

    It is very simple to be an "over accumulator", it just requires discipline. Anyone with any kind of salary will eventually become wealthy (over a lifetime) if they spend less $$ then they earn each month consistently, taking the net monthly "profit", and if they are in the USA, buy an S&P 500...

    Tesla, TSLA & the Investment World: the Perpetual Investors' Roundtable

    Hi @Electroman! Back in and buying more. She is all-in shares now through the split. The market always over reacts to weirdness like Elon buying Twitter and he might get margin calls. This deal won't close for months. Perhaps part of that is programmatic trading reactions to the moves (e.g...

    Tesla, TSLA & the Investment World: the Perpetual Investors' Roundtable

    My wife, Michelle has been trading $TSLA price swings in a 7-digit all-Tesla Roth IRA (with Roth "margin" [no loans just don't have to wait for cash settlement]) for almost 2 years now. On Friday, she and I decided after the +18% run-up in one week that $900 for $TSLA (triple options expiration)...

    Tesla, TSLA & the Investment World: the Perpetual Investors' Roundtable

    @StealthP3D I noticed you mentioned "batteries". Here is a recent email I'm able to share from one of my contacts whose team is leading the battery project at 47700 Kato Rd. in Fremont: "You have a great vision and choose to be a Tesla long-term investor, you are now well rewarded for your...

    Tesla, TSLA & the Investment World: the Perpetual Investors' Roundtable

    Thanks for correcting me @Tim S that's right I forgot during Monday's excitement! So another split may occur sooner rather than later if $TSLA continues on its positive trajectory. Baring awful macros, as Austin and Berlin ramp up, I think it will split again by 2022 Q2. Just realized SP is...

    Tesla, TSLA & the Investment World: the Perpetual Investors' Roundtable

    Hertz is already sending emails featuring Tom Brady and Model 3's to their Gold Plus Rewards members. They also posted new 30 and 60 second ad spots featuring him and the Model 3! Even my son (and 88 y/o mom) are now a "Teslanaires" as of today. :cool: I bought his first 100 shares in 2012...

    Safety Score

    Just got the email also!!! 99.42/100 no resets. 522 miles since I got my car back from Tesla San Jose Body Shop on Sep. 28 after they repaired it ($19K -- USAA almost totaled it) from another Model 3 covered by Tesla Insurance that ran a red light and T-boned me in Fremont (caught on TeslaCam...

    Safety Score

    Thanks, and congrats to you, too! I just managed to round up the past 7 days to 100 Sunday PM PDT. I guess I missed the cutoff for when they pulled the data to select the first batch. I'll keep it at 100 and hope to be added later on... I must say it was nerve-wracking driving a perfect 156...

    Safety Score

    Congrats! Did you score "100" seven days in a row -- or did you round up to 100? round(99.5+) = 100? Curious minds would like to know.
