[@sommersalt88]

Nobody should be depressed about Tesla stock right now on the brink of Autonomy. This is the moment to be the most Bullish ever. Right now i'd just like to appreciate short-term opportunities that I could take advantage of with 100k ..

[@gagnepaingilly]

I believe a healthy portfolio has 3 things, at the bare minimum: Exposure to ETFs for increased diversification, Exposure to assets that generate cash flow like dividend stocks, Exposure to market-leading tech.

[@Lewyn298]

Don't be in a hurry to get back in. The market needs several days of strong performance to signal that the downturn might be over; It's a time to be largely, if not entirely, in cash

[@84gaynor]

The market's instability makes DIY risky. You don't need to find the next NVDA to succeed in investing. Opt for top-notch ETFs, dividend aristocrats, and a trusted advisor. I've turned 130k into $17k in annual dividends, a major milestone.

[@blaquopaque]

I'm intrigued by this. I've searched for financial advisors online but it's kind of hard to get in touch with one. Okay if I ask you for a recommendation?

[@84gaynor]

*Jennifer Leigh Hickman* has always been on the top of my list..She is regarded as a genius in her area and well knowledgeable about financial markets. I highly recommend her if you want excellent collaboration.

I didn't become financially independent until I was in my late 40's, and I'm still in my 40's. In addition to having purchased my second home and earning money on a monthly basis through passive income, I've also achieved three out of five goals. I just hope this inspires someone to realize that it doesn't matter if you don't have any of these things yet, you can start today no matter your age. Change your future by investing! I made a rather big decision by investing in the financial market.

Wondering if memory is an important factor to add with vision and neural nets in order to trust FSD 100% all cases... Having no memory, is FSD essentially entering a particularly challenging intersection or idiosyncratic situation for the very first time, every time it encounters it, with a prime directive of just don't hit anything? If so, perhaps that is why it frequently drives as a beginner might by suddenly braking, hesitating, choosing the wrong speed, or choosing the wrong positioning, etc. in seemingly simple environments. Yet, it also does surprisingly well in many areas I thought it would falter. Perhaps a special light signalling surrounding drivers that FSD is active would help reduce their bewilderments until it's fully functional.

[@alexandervocelka9125]

Why should one buy a Hybrid car with 1.5 engines? And yes autonomous cars will be transformative. Tesla will use new models which will come on top of of the standard neural models. These models will also be used in Optimus. The innovation dimensions are: AI, Batteries, Chargers, Manufacturing processes, FSD and Optimus.

[@rashadfoux6927]

I'm glad Elon realizes that the true restriction to sales is affordability. Not just in relation to other products in your segment, but in relation to what people can actually pay to attain your product. No matter how great any of the product line up is for Tesla, it's going to be a hard pass for 99% of people who literally cannot pay for it.

[@alexandervocelka9125]

Investor view: if you invest in a strategic portfolio which everyone should do, and do not live on the edge of day trading, you invest in growth and dividend. Growth is innovation driven. Pure dividend is margin and scale driven. It is good to have a mix, as everyone knows. Also it is good to invest in businesses you also have an understanding off, the more the better. If you don’t , then leave your portfolio management to your banker. Now for growth stocks, if you don’t want to bet your savings and wish for some minimum security you go for high innovation rate stocks of base size. The key is innovation rate potential. The highest rate these decades is AI and everything that drives it and is driven by it. Certainly the global CO2 doctrine is driving electrical cars. This is a ideological-legal driver, as no one really can predict future climate and the impact of CO2 on global warming. So then you look around who is driving breakneck speed innovation and has the means and experience to turn innovation into productivity and earnings. And then you understand the unique position that Tesla has. You look at IBM and Intel and then at the mundane sectors and soon the options are dwindling rapidly. There are only a few companies which drive transformative change and reap the respective benefits. Tesla is one of a very, very few. And Tesla is the only company that pursues three complementary innovation dimensions in parallel. First, Electrical cars which will be enforced by all governments in industrialized countries for political reasons at least and for the sheer fact that too much transformative has already taken place, too much money already invested. Second and third AI in two firms: Autonomous Driving and Optimus/Robots. Compare this to Google, Amazon and Apple innovation rates and you will see the difference. Google, Amazon, Apple and Microsoft are 66% scale and 33% innovation driven. Tesla is 70% innovation and 30% scales driven. Of course innovation is what you scale, but you will notice that the first small investment series for start ups all are made for innovation. The big chunks of investments later on are all into scaling production and sales. Often by a factor 5-10:1. Which actually is horrible, as what you scale-is often of miserable quality. It is easy sell a stock, it is super hard to buy the right one. The brutal fact is, that there are not many companies who can deliver on massive transformative innovation, and when you own one you should only sell when you need your money or when you spot an even better one with a better Performance/Risk ratio. For me Tesla has still a sound decade of profitable growth in them at least. Companies life cycles, once the have som maturity are measured in decades not years.
