Never trust any man that has a wig or gets an implant. Fuck him.
You might be right, because thats exactly what some of his followers/investors view him as - a God. Never mind that TSLA is burning through cash at an astounding/unsustainable rate and their fundamentals look terrible - but Musk is sleeping on the assembly line floor! Buy more! Hes smart! He made rockets n shit!.
Look, i like and applaud him. But the way i see it, one day the shit will hit the fan one way or another
Dont forget that this is the same guy who thinks there is a 95% chance we live in a matrix...
Don’t fuck with anyone from the PayPal Mafia. However, their creations have always been largely misvalued in their favor. Bully for them.
Musk & Tesla are synonymous.
Tesla bleeds cash faster than it sells cars. Tesla bonds are junk class. A further rating downgrade is certainly possible.
You might have caught Trump attacking the Fed publicly about raising interest rates. Generally the President is supposed to keep an arms length.
The question is, will people seeking high yield from this trash begin to leave as better yields are found elsewhere? Is the junk bond cycle over soon?
Tesla’s future hinges on the Model 3 and it ain’t going well.
The stock price is a poker game between massive short interest and longs. It has no bearing on company reality.
I share Goodman’s respect. The guy is smart and is a modern day PT Barnum. He will never sleep on a park bench.
John DeLorean without the drugs
Anybody seen the CBS Summer Show Salvation.... I have to wonder if the character Darius Tanz just happens to be based on him.. Sure seems like it... God help us if Musk ended up as Vice President and was trying to stop an Asteroid heading to Earth.. We would legit be fucked..
Elon Musk is the same personality type as Nikola Tesla which i imagine is why he called his car company that name. Either that , or just admired the guy. Basically , they are both geniuses but both love to go from idea form to final product as quickly as possible a lot of times skipping many or all the steps in between. Nikola Tesla was notorious for this and had many explosions because of poor planning. Basically, Elon Musk comes up with a lot of far fetched ideas and throws them at the wall and will see if they stick. The ideas are so good that only a few need to work for him to be a success. But a lot of times they are not thought through. Lets not forget that Tesla was actually bailed out by the government at a critical time or probably would not be here today.
You mean Tesla the car company, please make the distinction.
I admire musk but Tesla>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>musk
Nikola Tesla never had the luxuries that Musk has, his sound resonating technology alone is fucking mind blowing.........you nerds wouldn't know about that.......Well some might......
Elon is a fraud and will be exposed once the bull market in stocks is over. Same way Bernie Madoff got exposed.
I enjoyed listening and watching bear shills like Marc Faber and Peter Shiff but it’s kind of clear in this modern fixed economy why they are only right once every 7-11 years. That said when Jim Chanos speaks it always gets my attention. From what little I know about the company I wouldn’t be surprised if they were bankrupt in 10 years.
I suspect he's on psych meds, successful and normal then out of nowhere a bit loony. He better drop Dr Jew in a hurry.
I listened to JRE podcast with Peter Shiff, and afterwards I thought to myself, here's a guy that knows exactly why the derivatives market doesn't match reality, yet he propagates his narratives with propaganda..............shill is a good way of describing him.......the question is would a shill admit he's a shill??..
Lighten up dude. He wasnt really attacking anyone. The questions analysts and investors were asking were boring bonehead questions; they deserved to get called out either way. Who gives a shit about fundamentals and capital requirements? Just dull bullshit. They should be focusing on the future of awesome Tesla vehicles and what Musk is doing with Mars and space travel, not where the money is coming from to fund a stupid factory originally powered by billions in subsidies - it will survive.
Just had coffee with a guy whose father owned an auto manufacturer in Iran before the Shah took a powder.
It’s not Krypt btw
Guy knows the business and is a big trader.
So I ask him, “does Tesla make it?”
His answer was, “Does Tesla sell to someone who knows how to build cars - like Ford?” He swears the technology is superior and is a fan but recognizes the problems too.
Guy is pretty passionate about the US and the intellectual theft by the Chinese and is wary of Chinese mandate for all electric.
He mentioned something about Tesla setting up in China and I started to lose him as he started to get into waving the US flag
Food for thought anyway.
you guys realize the new model tesla's just got like earth shaking positive reviews, yes?
like in the last 72 hours?
also you realize that musk bangs grimes on the regular?
because you can call a lot of people pedos and get away with it when youre smashing grimes and your brand new car is a fucking rockstar.
Post made me think of DEC’s Alta Vista (fantastic early search pre Google) & their Alpha chip. Both rock star products from a fucked company.
If you want 7.5% you should quit your job and self direct your apparently dwindling 401k into TSLA junk bonds.
Great products and business success are not linked. It is possible to fuck that up. Musk has the capacity
Watch Tesla's Battered Bonds as Musk Goes Begging Suppliers for Cash
There is a disconnect between the bonds (which have priority over stock when TSLA dies) and the stock price. That’s slowly getting fixed too.
There is going to be an unexpected outcome. It’s a popcorn worthy story and thread should have legs.
Elon Musk is a little bitch. He called the boss of one his critics on social media to get him silenced and it worked.
I just sat on a bar stool getting some of this good Chinese food they got up here in the Northeast and listened to an assistant manager at a CVS who couldn’t explain to his buddy who he was with what “selling short” is that he is all in on Tesla stock.
I almost asked him how much for a shoe shine.
Police Department spokeswoman Jennifer Manzella told City News Service the car was not on auto-pilot at the time and it appears the cause of the crash was “operator error.”

Although I do enjoy watching the Tesla battle. It is quite similar to Trump....very polarizing
Elon Musk is really good at dominating the media.
They report on every tweet and brain fart that he makes.
He could make a car that ruins on shit and they would say it's the "car of the future". Elon's fan boys would encourage people to collect manure to power the "green car of the future".
Elon Musk only dates hot girls who are completely psycho and crazy.

Where else would PT Barnum assemble the Model 3?
A tent

What is propping the stock up here if their finances are so bad?
tbh, I probably am propping up the stock. I own so much tsla calls and the price has been moving so much, it's bananas.
It's obscene how much volume I have been doing hedging my gamma, I think I am averaging over 10K shares a day, maybe more. I may just have to call up the nasdaq and ask to get DMM status to get some market making rebates! Barely making any money, but I need either a move of 10% positive or 10% negative and I'll finally cash in the big gain. If it just sits here after earnings, well, I wasted about a month of time trading this stupid stock for fucking ash tray money.
The earnings call will be hugely entertaining. I’ll try to remember to post a link.

That’s what Tesla’s stock price will go to as long as Elon is in charge.
Inventors/Idea people are terrible business managers.
The only hope is they do an equity raise in late 2018/2019 and it devalues his ownership enough that he loses control.
August 1st is gonna be quite the show.
Right now, generally your only all electric choice are inexpensive stuff like Prius or Chevy Volt. Which is interesting cause electrics given range/lack of charging stations are kind of an interesting addition to your personal fleet. This is the behavior of the well heeled buyers. Tesla is your only avenue to indulging that desire with any self respect.
Jaguar is there and the others are coming. By some estimates at auto shows over 100 models are in the pipeline.
Stock is down 10% since this thread started. Earnings later this week.
To be fair the only way they moved 16,000 cars in July is if they used their existing stock pile to send out when orders opened up.
I could go into great depths about why Tesla will fail, but think about this for a minute. If there is this insane level of demand, why are people who are actually ordering now that it has been opened up (don't forget the 400,000 reservations) getting their cars in days and not weeks or months?
The demand is for a $35,000 with a $7500 tax rebate. What you have here is a $55,000 car with a dwindling tax rebate. They have actually removed all notes and documentation around the $35,000.
There literally is no $35,000 mass market vehicle, it will never exist or at least not as the Model 3.
