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

When will, if ever, the industry and the car buying population properly label SUVs vs CUVs?

Thursday, of course!

When will, if ever, the industry and the car buying population properly label SUVs vs CUVs?

The CUV class is relatively new and likely created as marketing jargon. There's not much difference between SUV and CUV in conventional language. The lines are blurred since some CUVs are getting close to wagons, whereas some CUVs are becoming the size of midsized SUVs, e.g. the CRV (which I believe offer 3rd row seating now).

Edit: my mistake, the CRV doesn't offer 3rd row but the Pilot does.

I presume that Tesla has been relatively quiet about the Model Y recently, so as not to "osborne" the Model 3 or Model X.

Elon stated that on a talk show this summer. Its why the Y launch was subdued, he didn't want to deep 6 Model 3 orders.

I'm curious; please state the reasoning for your "disagree" vote against the the above quoted post of mine.
Also, why do you prohibit me from viewing your profile?

I believe someone said just yesterday in this thread how this would be spun against EVs.

I hope I didnt give them ideas. Should I be on tslaq payroll now?

I disagree with trying to reason or explain a purpose for downplaying the Y.

Are you a stalker? I just chose to keep my profile closed in general, not just you.
On the topic of profiles, may I suggest that you zoom out slightly on your picture?

If tomorrow is a flat or down macro day - I won't be surprised if TSLA ends magically ~ 240, MaxPain.

Maybe it's just a pet peeve of mine only then. People referring to anything that's not a traditional sedan as a SUV. Or when the words sedans and cars are used interchangeably, but specify SUVs as SUVs.

Everything hinges on ... Trump to meet with Chinese vice premier at White House: 'Big day of negotiations with China'

Read: Trump caved to the Chinese (who wanted to leave without a high level meeting), and unless a Fox News agitator manages to rile him up overnight a China trade deal is probably in the bag - which will be a tremendous win of epic proportions.

Seems like the demand thesis is officially dead. All the FUD has moved to other topics. I guess that's progress.

That explains why a truckful of Model 3's was following me to work at my new job!

Today's wild speculation: the drop in short volume suggests that someone has information on earnings and is covering. I'm calling an earnings surprise, either substantial zev credit sales or a new agreement.

Covering or taking profit?
