Tesla’s trillion dollar valuation is fast approaching

Kona is already available in Canada.

Bearish for Tesla. All these Tesla bulls refusing to buy the actual cars. :smile:

Think of this way, when Tesla bulls like me and WQJ are not buying, the stock came from $17 to $300. If we buy, it will go to moon…:rofl:

Moon is inside the Earth core? TSLA closed below my purchase price :pleading_face:

The real losers are the Tesla owners. When the company no longer exists how will they service their ultra-expensive car? Where will they charge it when all those Tesla super-chargers have gone dark?
The average owner has as much to lose here as the average shareholder. Perhaps more.

How many shares do you own and what’s the proportion of that compared to your AAPL holding? :smile:

When the earth no longer exist where are you going to live? Stop imagining non-existent scenarios :smile:

See industry wide challenges are there. China+Euro+Emerging Market economies are coming down, demand is reducing. Compared to GM lay offs and Ford Lay offs, TSLA lay off is very small.

I do not know whether this blog will survive that long or many of our members (like me) survive that long, but TSLA will have longer life like 25 to 50 years.

This is tech+car company like that of GM of F surviving since their innovative time.

My investment horizons are shorter than that.

“In California, prices went from $0.26 per kWh to ranging from $0.32 to $0.36 per kWh in the charging stations that we verified…”

At 0.34 per kWh and using 4.1 miles per kWh (estimate I found online) it costs about 10% more to drive a Tesla in CA than it does for me to drive my 185 hp ICE car here in AZ.
34 mpg/4.1 = 8.3 kWh to a gallon of gas. 8.3 x 0.34 = $2.82. I’m paying a little over $2.50 a gallon.

IIRC, Tesla Super Charger is optional. Super Charger is required only when you go long distance, more than 200 miles. PG&E charges are high for superchargers, that 440 voltage industrial line.

I use Bolt, not using free company superchargers (as they are always crowded), but use my own home Charger 7.2KW at night after 11 pm. The PGE EV rate is 11 cents/Kwh and my charges are appx $40/month/Car. Using two Bolts around 18 months, not even single day Super Charger required for me.

It works out appx 3 Cents/Mile drive.

Tesla’s Model 3 Wait List May Undermine Musk, One Way or Another

  • Many deposit holders are standing by for $35,000 base version

  • Would-be buyers could pinch profit margins, or lose patience

Telsa should open up the reservation for the Model Y. Get the fans excited and use the free interest capital.

We have a word for that: Ponzi scheme. Take money from future dumber fans to pay for the current dumb fans. :smile:

The only Ponzi that is happening is inside your own head.
