    Would have been even better if Tesla PR/BoD releases some stmt like this every day for the next 8 days till the vote - will be lot more effective then just those ads.

    OK, I think there are 2 scenarios here? 1. Institution reaches out to share owner and asks if he wants to lend his shares. In original owner agrees, then it is as you described. 2. the 401K funds etc who manage shares do not reach out to share owners. But they do lend out shares to borrowers...

    So if my shares are lent out by say Vanguard to someone who borrows to short it - i cannot vote on my shares?

    The person borrowing the shares doesn't get dividends nor should he get voting rights. These should reside with the actual owner.

    Buy low, sell high - would be smart Got just 1st part right with DCA of $8, and then sentiment and over expectations got in the way … Still think we need to wait out 5-6 quarters and should be good after, so CC till then… cheers!!

    If smart money is buying at 1K, are they that smart? :) or what is their intent? Mark large contracts on tape, for the world to see, create fomo and exit unnoticed? dark pools for activities where they want no one to see?

    Even if BoD did not do its duty, the advantage was with shareholders at all times ….either Elon did not get paid a cent, or he grew the company to unheard of levels. Either way shareholders won.

    Likely not the China numbers, but SP getting punished for the XAi cap raise. Market thinks Elon more thinly spread/focused on AI, and may over think that FSD and Optimus also now go to xAI. this needs to be digested. No FSD, Optimus not going to xAI. tesla likely will use Grok from xAI ...

    How many companies want to invest Billions in AI, R&D and what have you, if there is a turnkey solution available?

    Mgmt has said slow growth (between 2 waves - M3/Y, and M2/Q), not zero growth. Past few mths narrative has been such that sales is negative.

    Didn’t we see the same approach be applied with the store closing and layoffs 3-4 years ago after dismissal Q1 sales? Seems a cyclical purge is his style. More over he then applied this in X and he doesn’t like dissent ( incase of the SuC team) He also has a penchant for drama ;) Not excuses …

    You sell now because of possibility that SP goes down. If it goes up, you can always roll ad move the goal post. if you think SP is going to go up, then yes you don't sell ... but who knows where the winds blow ;)
