Even knowing the call and put walls, we don't know why those call and put walls are where they are. All we do is observe the line moving tick by tick day after day and try to rationalize it, we genuinely have no idea why any stock does anything on a given day.Where are the call and put walls this morning for this week? It seems to me that almost nothing else matters to TSLA anymore other than options manipulation

So the stock price rises for the last hour and that is a new trend?Q2 2023 Tesla beats P&D consensus and issues lower guidance for upcoming quarter due to upgrades to Gigafactories. TSLA drops.
Q3 2023 Tesla misses P&D consensus and issues higher guidance for upcoming quarter due to upgrades to Gigafactories. TSLA rises.
Is all about the future...
and the future is bright.
No..the new trend is $TSLA rising while missing badly (even though it was justified)So the stock price rises for the last hour and that is a new trend?
And yet, my Rivian stock holdings continue to disappoint.FWIW, Rivian had a solid beat on production and delivery in Q3 with reaffirmed guidance of sales more than doubling in 2023 over 2022. Rivian Surprises Wall Street With Q3 Vehicle Deliveries Growing 140%
It's hard to find semi flatbed trailer empty weight specs... seems like most places want to quote gross trailer weight loaded...and we get rough weight estimate 60-70 000 pounds for 2 semi with small trailer
Because they haven’t shown a path to profitability yet. I haven’t run the numbers recently, but they have a finite number of years before they run out of cash. Q3 results for Rivian will be very interesting and telling. Still, Rivian is at least showing improvement in production. Interestingly, they still aren’t at current Tesla Model S/X numbers yet. They seem to be more or less following Tesla’s initial Model S production ramp numbers.And yet, my Rivian stock holdings continue to disappoint.
Perhaps the most dangerous time when there's a lack of liquidity with high interest rates. Companies with strong balance sheets and positive cash flows can weather the storm while companies that's nowhere near cash flow positive having a hard time surviving. Unless Rivian exceed wallstreet's expectation and start having a positive margin, the stock will continue to drift lower.And yet, my Rivian stock holdings continue to disappoint.

Much of the weight of a semi is in the engine (can be 5,000 to 15,000 lbs), transmission, fifth wheel, and driveline. The sheet metal doesn't add a lot. Fuel adds around 2,000 lbs.It's hard to find semi flatbed trailer empty weight specs... seems like most places want to quote gross trailer weight loaded...
But it seems like 10K lbs is a reasonable estimate.
That would imply each semi weighs 25-30K lbs... the low end of that range just overlaps the high end of the weight range of 10-25K for a diesel semi, but I assume that's for a extended sleeper cab etc..., whereas the Tesla Semi is not.
But then again... batteries. Lots of 'em.
@jamaatta , At the close I went back and liked your post.So, are we closing green today?
Wow. It's just silly how much more advanced (I believe) the Semi is compared to an ICE semi. Like, two different torques for the two pairs of rear drive wheels to provide both initial acceleration and efficient highway cruising (= quicker runs = $ profit). And SOOO much energy saved with regen compared to an ICE semi descending mountains pumping out heat for nothin' (= reduced fuel cost = $ saved). The disc brakes are basically 'emergency brakes' only. Fantastic. 4680 volume production can't come soon enough!A fantastic video from Jay Leno about the Semi - and talks with Franz and Dan on how they made this beast.
