    Wiki Selling TSLA Options - Be the House

    Well again VERY LOW probability but charts is charts.. but that July 210 has only gotten cheaper at this point, but if it WERE to get to say 12-15$, I’d probably be selling that if I still wanted to hold shares and not quibble about the extra 5%. Overall mkt pain trade AT THE MOMENT is higher...

    I have a $237 number target on my charts that I didn’t want to communicate since it’s VERY low probability and closer in than June. But the possibility but NOT probability is certainly out there for a measured move to that level. I’d be selling every day of the week at that point.

    PPI WAS hot today but the past months were revised down and one even to NEGATIVE .01. So I think people are thinking that CPI COULD be at or down tomorrow which would spark further pump and most likely BOT for this round.

    Direct 18" vs. 20" wheel comparison for efficiency

    Can anyone comment on the HK ION EVO AS for wet performance, or just regular performance.. I’m not talking tracking or track day at LS, but want to have some good grip and water venting capability. Might just do four new HK since they seem to be measurable higher efficiency, and offload my two...

    Monday shod be mkt green. We usually get green before the actual PPI and CPI prints. If PPI is cooler we could moonnthe markets till mid day Tuesday. Then wait for CPI WEDS. But ppl would probably be profit taking by mid Tuesday latest.

    CA electricity bills will have new fixed fees based on income

    Proabably another 20%, THEN in 2025 a 20% reduction. But, by then we’ll be at ~ 120% of 2018 levels, so we’ll be back to just maybe Mid 2023 by EOY 2025

    CA electricity bills will have new fixed fees based on income

    CPUC is just a scam. But, I have read/heard that the rate reduction overall is closer to 5-7 c/kw. Would that make it seem more equitable or economical for low income+low to medium use? And I’m not sure who/what produced that article, but it doesn’t seem to show what the rate expectation is...

    Wiki Selling TSLA Options - Be the House

    Tesla has a lot in treasury, in short duration assets, so its really more about that loss of interest between potential earned interest and the interest rate they make available.. so close to ~ 4.25% they would be “giving up”, or about 3% net of taxes on the interest bearing amount. Certainly...

    $NVDA I think we might actually break that support, my AI target was very short term and $967, but I don’t we’ll get there in this run.. could still happen, but I think it’s going to be sub $880, before $960+.

    Yeah, I don’t really know where the other 130B is coming from, 40% of SpaceX might be worth 70B, I doubt anything else is worth a total of another 60B, but who knows. Dead Bird his ownership MIGHT be 8-10B. But, I do also think that his actual ownership of TSLA is higher than the 12% you list...

    Not to be pedantic, but the entire company is only worth 571B TODAY, so how would - even if he had 58% - of 571B be 500B? Are you also adding in some portion (42%??) of SpaceX ~ 170B as well to these maths?

    Well, nothing is ever truly safe, but we’ll be past Q2 earnings most likely then (7/17/24?), and Q2 P&D, so unless everyone is just assuming BAD/BAD again, we could rally. All these job cuts won’t add TOO much to reducing negative earnings - since everything pretty much comes with 1-3 months of...

    Technically the auto market is doing pretty well. Last year was 15.6 million total. This year we’re at a current run rate higher than that. Nearly 5.5m just in the first four months of the year. So something is working I doubt we’ll ever see the 17m years from half a decade ago but 15.5-16m...

    The numbers about EV “on the road” are a bit of a misnomer and I would argue much higher than 1%… while there are ~ 280M vehicles REGISTERED in the USA, there are roughly ~ 100-110M that are DRIVEN each day.

    My AI is telling me ~ $935 for NVDA in short order. I’m going to look to sell more calls again if we get up there. It would take quite a lot to get us back under $800 in the NEAR term.
