Just to reiterate: Tesla will spend well over $500M expanding our Supercharger network to create thousands of NEW chargers this year.
That’s just on new sites and expansions, not counting operations costs, which are much higher.
Sen. Bernie Sanders: "It is not acceptable that the two wealthiest people in this country, Mr. Musk and Mr. Bezos, take control of our space efforts to return to the Moon, [...]This is not something for two billionaires to be directing."
Elon Musk may be have gained over $200 billion in value on Tesla…
… but he also CREATED $800 billion in value for others, including everyone who owns an index fund.
Elon Musk minted a lot of new millionaires - Tesla employees who bought stock. Not to mention retail investors and 401k.

If $TSLA can get similar pricing for Megapack 2XL...
...we estimate when running at 80 GWh capacity, both MEGAPACKTORY SHANGHAI and Megapacktory Lathrop could add...
$12.8 billion/yr in NET profits to $TSLA at 40% EBITDA margin. (assuming 25% 🇨🇳 tax rate, and 15% 🇺🇸 min tax)
Breaking news, Tesla China's energy storage Megafactory Officially signed, which is said to have a production capacity of 40 GWh/year.
Tom Zhu, SVP of Tesla's automotive business, Wang Hao, general manager of Tesla China, and Tao Lin, VP of Tesla, attended the event.
Elon Musk has $18 billion dollars in $TSLA stock options expiring soon. He must either borrow billions or sell shares to pay the tax. How many shares is it? When exactly do they expire? What is the decision that
@elonmusk
is facing? I found some answers.
TESLA TSUNAMI:
The event that transforms Tesla’s trajectory
Understanding and perception surrounding Tesla cars and electric vehicles (EVs) are in their infancy. In the US, EVs only just crossed the 8% market share threshold. We're certainly in the "Early Adopter" phase of this…
My guess right now based on 12 hours at Lathrop & local info…
$TSLA is currently making up to 5 Megapack XL at Lathrop a day. Yesterday they trucked out 5 while I was there.
Today I caught a flurry where they trucked out 3. Doesn’t mean they are making 3-5 everyday. So… 1/2
Thursday night Tesla cut the price of Model S & Model X by $20,000 each
$TSLA makes 20,000 S&X per quarter. The price cut costs Tesla $400 million per quarter or $1.6 ba-ba-ba-billion / year
Why not instead experiment with a $1 million retargeting advertising campaign b4…🤏🧵
…AND Tesla Emotionalist buys back the stock 50% higher.

Do not listen to this guy. If you did, you just lost 1/3 of your shares.

99% of the excuses I hear for being bearish on $TSLA are not fundamental to the business.

Well played... well played. 👏
Do we need any more evidence that Troy went full blown anti-Tesla? He clearly doesn’t understand and/or pretends not to the role of the humans involved in the training of Optimus in the same way Tesla uses human drivers to improve the system.
People who short Tesla stock or encourage others to short $TSLA and refuse to try Tesla's v12.3 self driving nor understand its tech is the epitome of ignorance and arrogance...
They deserve everything coming to them.

SO MUCH FOR $TSLA PRICE CUTS
In April 2020, I got about one of the first few thousand Model Y ever made. Model Y Performance with FSD. $71,000 or so.
The cost today of Red Model Y Performance with FSD? $74,000.
Tesla ‘only’ grew production +20% quarter over quarter.
Annualized, that would be a +108% increase*
This is “EPIC” execution on the part of $TSLA
*Annualizing the quarter doesn’t mean they will grow 108% over a full year… but 2021 they grew 87% over a full year. AMAZING
imo, people who are worried with how they look are selling $TSLA.
They don't wanna be seen with what has become one of the most unpopular stocks right now.
Me? I generally don't care about appearances.

@RedMetalGiraffe
No Elon would not use FIFO, Elon’s first in shares have the lowest cost basis and would cause further tax to be triggered and make it worse.
There is ZERO chance $TSLA will acquire UBER. Tesla would need to pay a buyer's premium, so it would cost Tesla $210 billion.
At MOST, all the lessons that Uber has learned are worth $10 billion.
Tesla can get the data they need, and is already getting it from Tesla rideshares
Not sure why $TSLA just doesn’t buy $UBER to get into autonomous ride hailing, and get all the data from its platform of 137M consumers who take 25M trips PER DAY.
