With all of us 'retail' shareholders holding 30% of $TSLA shares for this vote to get Elon back his comp plan, it is IMPERATIVE to not only vote yourself, but to actively ask friends and family who have shares to go to asap to put their votes in
My
@elonmusk
$TSLA "Product Roadmap Update" Interpretation:
Demand is off the hook for existing models so it doesn't make sense for us to introduce new vehicle models until all supply constraints can first catch up to that ever-increasing demand
Here’s example of
#1
reason to own and drive a Tesla:
A very close family member was T-boned bad in her 1-2 year old Model Y the other week, thank goodness she walked away unharmed…the driver that T-boned her in Ford Expedition left in ambulance…pictures and description below:
1/An old friend from upstate NY sent me this video of his
@Tesla
AWD Model Y spinning out on black ice, says “pretty sure the car took over as I spun out and pulled off the road so I didn’t get hit from behind…”
ASTONISHES me how many folks on Twitter think
@elonmusk
is disingenuous or deceitful...one interesting “signal” is that an unusually high proportion of these views hide behind anonymous Twitter handles
I’m convinced the most self-less person alive combined with the person with the greatest problem solving/engineering skillset is Mr. Elon Musk.
It’s bizarre that at the same time so many in press/media and politics try to make him a villain.
It’s like if you programmed a
So bizarre how the one individual who is helping the world the most is getting so much hate from media and Twitter Mobs for trying to do his best to help prevent increasing/escalating chances of Nuclear War
Thank you
@elonmusk
Please know: # people grateful >> # vocally hateful
The most obvious “planted” question I’ve ever seen…takes out note card on queue to read specific stats given to him to answer it with with his clever planned punchline at the end is my guess
Happy New Years to all….especially to those fellow $TSLA shareholders who still have faith in
@elonmusk
and the entire
@tesla
team.
I think we will all be rewarded in 2023 and beyond!
Tesla stock will split again, just a matter of when $TSLA
A split does not change fundamentals but I am in favor sooner bc it does give opportunity for more people to buy shares who do not have easy access to fractional shares
@elonmusk
@hiromichimizuno
@elonmusk
Time to increase security dramatically. Worst case is it’s extra money not necessary and a bit of extra friction to travel, best case is it saves your life from assassination attempt
Will be seen as controversial take/fanboy, but I am definitely MORE bullish than I already was on $TSLA stock right now after learning
@Elonmusk
just sold more shares
I can't help but wonder if today and coming days drop in $TSLA might be the last great buying oppty
I can't imagine Q2 delivery numbers not being way better
I can't imagine FSD take rate not inching up already
I can't imagine FSD not getting better still from here
I can't
Some bears say
@elonmusk
is just a good “salesman”
I actually don’t think his language is especially persuasive like a typical salesman, I think they say it bc most of us believe him when they don’t bc we’ve learned that Elon actually delivers on what he says
I’ve been told bc of this recent Tesla China price drop:
"the Website of Tesla China is down now without access…showroom is exploded with customers in"
I have never been more confident in
@Tesla
the business and its future
$TSLA the stock in the long term will align with the business, but over any given time period the stock can do seemingly crazy things
Hooray! 🙌 for
@elonmusk
agreeing to do interview with the likes of
@heydave7
and
@TeslaPodcast
, but sad he will no longer be on $TSLA earnings calls 😢
If
@elonmusk
has demonstrated that he can attract and lead the best engineers in the world to land rockets and build incredible EVs very profitably then why do so many people still put such low probability on

solving FSD in the next 1-2 years?

I will argue that if there is any entrepreneur who should NOT have to pay taxes, it is
@elonmusk
.
He already deploys capital SO MUCH more efficiently than any govt ever could to better the world.
The pressure for, him in particular, to give X capital to govt feels very tragic
@elonmusk
You have a historic ability to generate ROI vs. govt waste
Why not instead donate 10% of your $TSLA capital to some higher cause the govt fails at? (Eg. Help evolve our educational system)
U could coordinate, or even delegate, use of that capital MUCH more efficiently than govt
Not investment advice and could be very wrong:
I believe greater than 50% chance that a significant rally in $TSLA stock (back towards and above $1 trillion market cap) will occur once there are solid indications of increasing FSD take rates. This actual increased take rate I
Dave is killing it with his in depth interviews with all the top TSLA community folks, soon there will only be one left...
@elonmusk
when will you agree to an in depth interview with
@heydave7
?
Feed us!
many folks who follow me have seen plenty of $TSLA pumping so I won't add to that now, but what about the true benficiary of this deal? the company now in line to become the biggest Robotaxi fleet operator in the world
🤔
Not investment advice:
In my personal IRA I had some cash available and bought Jan 2024 1500 strike calls for under $100.
Stocks could dip further over coming days/weeks, but sooner or later when volatility subsides I believe TSLA will trade up again on its fundamentals
$TSLA
Crazy world we live in where Chinese govt is friendlier to top American company of our time than the US govt.
As an American and $TSLA investor/fan, it is bittersweet to realize Tesla may have brighter future in China than USA.
#ShameOnPOTUS
@POTUS
Qin Gang is current Chinese ambassador in the US. He shall never meet with any private sector entrepreneur without prior approval. I bet White House is fully aware of this matter too.
Something very big is going to happen!
@elonmusk
@heydave7
Can we please get you on
@heydave7
YouTube channel for an interview? He knows more about you and
@tesla
than any other journalist/reporter to have ever interviewed you to date so there will be lots of new very good questions
Amazing, petition is over 10k people in support of Tesla ♥️
@elonmusk
“I implore you,
@POTUS
, and so do those signing this, to do the right thing and acknowledge
@Tesla
for its hard work in making EVs a possibility for Americans.”
Let’s get to 15k 👍
A bit disappointed that most of these questions are things that have already been asked...need an interviewer more informed on everything

Maybe I’m biased as a long term $TSLA investor for over 12 years now but I believe this is the best $RIVN will ever look for investors at $23bn valuation and it’s all downhill from here so beware
Once Cybertruck is officially out demand of their top product will drop.
If it
My interepretation of what
@Elonmusk
just said:
$TSLA stock buyback is coming...board is just waiting a bit to make sure recession isn't worse than 2009
These Tesla price cuts in US are clearly a step back for margins in Q1 (maybe Q2 too?) and my gut says $TSLA stock may drop significantly, anywhere from 5-20% tomorrow/Monday as either one day or two day drop
Just another week in the life of being a $TSLA shareholder
In 10 years $TSLA will be largest company in world but Starlink will also be one of largest. Advent of real-world AI in coming years I believe will make this more clear.
Most people binge watch a Netflix series on a free night, i binge a ton of new
@Tesla
FSD beta videos…every new release going forward will be like a new season to binge watch
@elonmusk
@heydave7
Would you let
@heydave7
interview you? Many of us long-time TSLA investors and fanatics watch all of Dave's videos and interviews,
@elonmusk
please consider
How the heck is the general public not knowledgeable enough to know Tesla is the no-brainer choice here for 90% of current millions of Camry/Accord/RAV4 buyers?
Tesla’s lack of public education efforts greatly disappoint me…instead they will continue to cut prices I believe
Starting prices:
• Tesla Model 3 RWD (with federal incentive): $36,240
• Toyota Camry XSE V6: $36,645
• Honda Accord Touring Hybrid: $37,890
• Toyota RAV4 Hybrid Limited: $39,030
• Honda CR-V Sport Touring Hybrid: $39,100
• Tesla Model Y AWD (with fed incentive): $39,490
Tough week to be $TSLA retail investor…these type of downward moves happened many times in past…
But zoom out and the stock is still over 100x bigger than ~10 years ago though.
I have faith it will be many multiples bigger in another 10 years from now

@jasondebolt
Very true, best companies’ stock always feel expensive as they ascend into greatness, $TSLA is on its way to becoming king of all the greatest companies we’ve ever known
I’m not in GME, but think free market price discovery should be allowed, ‘market forces’ should be judge if GME market cap at this time should be 3bn or 30bn or 300bn. Anyone shorting anything should be held responsible and accountable for their tail risk IMO
Here's an interesting question: IF $TSLA somehow guaranteed convincingly that it will NEVER issue more TSLA shares, why couldn't TSLA shares become a better proxy for digital gold than $BTC?

I’d be ok with this celebration if there wasn’t such an obvious double standard going on:

I find your openness and sincerity refreshing. Just continue to be you and don’t worry about stepping on toes of people who will disagree with you on X or Y.
Free speech and free thinking for the win!

Instead of thinking of it as an EXTRA interview being asked of you

My initial Tesla's FSD Beta 12 review: A Quantum Leap Towards Full Autonomy
I was thrilled when my wife's Model X received the FSD Beta 12 update last night, without any special request on social media or to Tesla. As a data point for wide release, this is a promising sign.
ROFLMAO! Am I in some parallel universe
@Tesla
doesn’t exist in? Is govt run by commercials??? Felt sort of like one of those games where the card says: “Start timer and have detailed 5 minute conversation about EVs Made in America and Solar without mentioning the word “Tesla””
Folks, I’m a car guy – and I firmly believe the future is electric. Gina McCarthy and Secretary Granholm hit the road to talk about the Bipartisan Infrastructure Framework’s historic investments in electric vehicles and how we’re going to ensure the future is made in America.
What happens when a non-Tesla mass-produced-EV inevitably has a problem like this?…wait, we got a preview with the Bolt recall recently.
Yikes! Bad news for all other EVs
$TSLA
@karpathy
In general, anyone interested in working on physical-word AI problems, should consider joining Tesla. Fastest path to deploying your ideas irl.
More and more investors are starting to see the path for $TSLA to become largest company in world by profits and revenue… largest stock market cap in word will precede that by X years
"Bulls make money, Bears make money, but Pigs get slaughtered" I have closed ~80% of my remaining Jan 15 calls from S&P trade...kept ~20% with intention to take assignment of shares adding to my core TSLA long-term share position
Let’s remember that
@tim_cook
hasn’t taken any meaningful risk ever, Jobs took all the risks and Cook reaped the rewards...Car from ground up would be a big risk, not Tim’s style

During the darkest days of the Model 3 program, I reached out to Tim Cook to discuss the possibility of Apple acquiring Tesla (for 1/10 of our current value). He refused to take the meeting.

Any other possibilities?
Update on my TSLA thesis going into the weekend:
I keep thinking, WHAT TSLA BULLs will sell 120mm+ shares of $TSLA over these next few weeks on the eve of record-breaking 4th quarter deliveries, 4th quarter results, 2021 guidance, and new factories coming online ⚡️
Consumers get a new car every 4-5 years on avg
Consumers get new phone every 1-2 years
-iPhone introduced 2007, how long did it take to dominate?
-Model 3 introduced 2017, now think about how much further we still have to go in curve of Model 3/Y domination
$TSLA
I’ve never met a market bottom where there was not a ton of panic at the lows right before the markets turned back upwards. Maximum fear tends to be where the bottom lies…not sure if we’re there yet, but there’s certainly a lot of fear in the air
Best quote of the day by Adam Jonas just now on

"our message to investors is you have to take your medicine and get that Tesla vaccine in your portfolio to be able to take risks elsewhere"

What you need to do:
Email pra.comments

Put “OMB Control No. 1545-2137” in subject line
Type in that you think tesla Model Y 5 seater should be included and silly that it’s not from the beginning
Forest from the trees view:
Tesla will become largest company in world by both total revenue and profits by end of this decade (if not sooner).
This means they should become largest company in world in terms of market cap several years before that.

@elonmusk
@DavidSacks
Why not invite

for a respectful debate/discussion.
I assume he’s not an evil person, let’s try and figure out why from his perspective doing these things are the right thing to do.
Open discourse
Same politician 100-150 years ago: “instead of supporting Edison and Ford build light bulbs and cars we should be get more candles and and horse stables”
Super bullish!
Hope some of us on on here were able to load up the truck with more $TSLA last 3 days as Elon gave us one last great fire sale opportunity here
I think 20:1 or even higher $TSLA split would be best.
Why?
Just do it once if possible so share price is low enough for all, or 2 times over 10 years vs 5+ times over 10 years.
In the end, stock market cap will be worth the value investors give its fundamentals
@elonmusk
Could AI day show a humanoid robot driving a Tesla and stopping to get out and deliver a package to someone’s front door? Then get back in car and drive off? 🤔 $TSLA
I’m feeling very good about how market is digesting major $TSLA overnight price cuts…to me it says we are moving out of “growth stock expectations” mode (infinite demand expectations, etc.) and Tesla can once again surprise market to upside in future
I’ll bite, my guess is $TSLA goes up $50ish tomorrow. Would be very surprised if it’s a down day but it HAS gone down after other historic unveilings (Battery Day, Autonomy Day, Cybertruck)
FACT: new car sales in US are ~14 million per year at ~$48k avg price
FACT: Tesla will sell well under 1 million new cars in US in 2023 (13 million+ ICEs)
VERY IMPORTANT FACT: Tesla has lowered prices multiple times in 2023 and pulled unorthodox grass roots ‘demand levers’ in
