[@st-ex8506]

Started in March of 2013... 200 shares at $50 (of then). Had a ball the first year... then nothing happened (on the stock value) for 4 years, but sold nothing... slept on them... then it dropped in early 2019 and the bears were all predicting "bankwutcy". I therefore analyzed the fundamentals (I mean by that the real BUSINESS fundamentals, not what some clown analysts call fundamentals... i.e. quarterly financial statements!), and came to the conclusion that it was the right time to buy. Bought 100 shares in June 2019, and 100 more in July. We all know what happened since! I still own all of them (well, they grew 15 fold in number...) except the few I sold to buy myself a Tesla! And I will hold them until the prospects of a) the energy division, b) FSD/robotaxies, and c) Optimus are correctly factored into the share price. The advantage of having a $20 average acquisition price is that it works wonders for sleep quality when the share dips!

Tesla’s battery storage revenues for last quarter is equal to or greater than Porsche’s revenue and growing very fast.

[@i6power30]

Tesla has no moat around its battery business, as Chinese CATL and BYD etc, will gradually eat away their margin as they become more well known. For now, Tesla relies on its name brand. Software argument is laughable, a 13 year old can write an if statement - if grid rate is high use battery, If grid rate is low charge the battery lol. I've been in software consulting business most of my life, I know how ignorant top management is and willing to shell out big money for something new and shiny, even if it's dead simple. Energy storage business is new and mysterious to most. Therefore, you can upsell a lot by making it sound mysterious and complicated. In early days of iPhone and Android (2011, 12) I've sold several very simple mobile apps for tens of thousands dollars of what took me a a couple of days to make. Many of them amounts to just less than a hundred lines of code.

@@GenRicOpekc of course I'm oversimplifying the software argument. But grid integration logic is no where near as complicated as AI or FSD. It doesn't need a super computer to train a neuronet lol.

Tesla is not trying to be the only player, their goal is to accelerate the world towards sustainable energy, if CATL and BYD succeed, so does Tesla...and they have a manufacturing competency that is unrivaled, with vertical integration past what Apple was able to accomplish, by also tackling the hardware manufacturing internally. This is very hard to do for almost all companies, hence why most are not vertically integrated.

Correct me if I’m wrong but isn’t the way Hedge Funds make money is they sell shares - they don’t possess - at a certain price in the expectation that when the time comes that they have to deliver those shares they’ll be able to buy them at a much lower price. …..making a profit based on the difference in the two prices. Obviously they will make a loss if instead of the price falling it actually rises. Hedge companies may want to crystallise their loses if they think the price of Tesla will rise. This involves buying shares in Tesla. Obviously if Hedge Funds are buying this will push the stock price up. Maybe this explains the recent huge jump in the price of Tesla shares.

[@phvaessen]

[@larryevans6739]

Forward P/E of over 102 is insane for a company with declining sales, revenue and margins. On energy storage, BYD outsold themby a significant margin last year, even though nobody paid attention. Tesla just barely beat sales estimates that were massively revised down over the past year. There is no rational justification for the current rally.

[@briand5379]

These types of moves are common in stocks that have a heavy short position and all it takes is a short or long term catalyst that brings more money into the stock and then the short squeeze cycle begins. The short squeeze cycle pushes out shorts, forces them to buy back the stock which increases the price and that pushes out even more shorts, forcing them to buy back the stock. This will continue until a large chunk of shorts have washed out of a particular stock. I'm not a fan of shorting and think it shouldn't be allowed to exist, but there are people that use it as a hedge tool. As far as Tesla as an investment, I have a hard time investing in something that trades at 80x next year's earnings, who underperformed the last 3 quarters compared to estimates and have a 5-year projected growth rate to be around 15-20%.

[@chillfluencer]

If you have enough money you can buy enough of a stock, sell it when it slightly moves up - so it tanks...and then you re-buy it. It goes up again. You sell again with a profit - which leads to it tanking again. So you buy it again. It goes up. You again sell at some point with a profit. It goes down again...and so on. Pretty much a crime like insider trading.

$400 billion in the hole Viking?

[@rosspitca9142]

um,, I follow tsla,, and you are extremely wrong saying tsla was most shorted stock in USA,, in fact the short % was well within range around 2-3% the current short interest is 3.8% and its not 'scary grizzly bears around every corner,, its the market makers having to keep up with groups of Indian traders pumping the stock to each other.

Investing in in Tesla is not for the faint of heart :)

[@jgarbo3541]

The shorters regularly get burned with Tesla. Problem is that Musk is a mercurial genius, many irons in the fire. Tricky stock to trade, even long. But shorts are stupid. I trend trade, so the price can be anything so long as it looks like up. But remember, current price is not company "value" but "expectation", and closing price is usually indicative of trend..

[@Gunter_Custom]

Where are all the people crying that they bought in at 250 or higher now that it's going back up ? 😂😂😂

[@mrlemm2030]

I expect Elon has something to do with it, sell high buy low....I wonder who bought them.

[@litestuffllc7249]

If you are smart you can tell this was pump and dump; and you could have made a lot of money. There would be few if any shorts on Tesla stock which had dropped to 150 half what it was worth a year ago; it is now back up so the next question someone consider shorting will be asking is - will Tesla meet even the lowered profit expectations when it is announced in 1 week? Tesla made 1.1 billion last quarter - do you think they will this quarter? It is this question shorts will be considering; if they think it will make that - they won't short but if they think they won't - they will. What do you think? did they make 1.1 billion?

[@JoeyBlogs007]

Gates would have purchased around $300 before the dip, so if he shorted, he would still be way ahead.

It will crash after tax credit ends

[@GershonBenYitzhak]

It's going up because the stock was artificially beaten down by the general mainstream narrative, which was fully reversed after earnings. Also some FOMO.

[@paulharling7657]

This isn't going to end well. You can dress it up all you want, they are a car company. The billionaires are calling the shots because they are smarter. The sheep will get slaughtered.

[@asmith20707]

It's so heart warming to read about Tesla short sellers. Why would anyone bet against Elon Musk, someone who created Tesla, Space X, Optimus, Boring Company, Dojo, xAI, Neuralink, Grok, Solar City and other ealier ventures that sold for hundreds of millions. Unless Elon Musk gets run over by the proverbial bus, Tesla is on course to become the biggest and most dominant company in history by orders of magnitude.

[@jarrodf_]

The same reason Tesla's brand and sales are tanking: namely, Musk's increasingly unhinged behaviour and reactionary political extremism

BigGas, BigOil, BigCoal, Boing, GOPs, and People fighting Ukraine, thinks Elon is eating their breakfast, lunch and dinner. No wonder they have activated all their bribed politicans🎃, journalists, Unions and German terrorist groups. They will all work together to deliver daily FUD in your feed.

Oh, and taxis for all the countries that most people do not OWN a car in. They will be huge.

That's a lot of bank on money that hasn't been earned yet, especially when dividends haven't been paid.

GM's p/e is only 5!! Obviously GM is the better investment here!

[@davidbrayshaw3529]

@@Dave-cf4vd P/E is just one metric to go by and no, I wouldn't be investing in GM anytime soon. The thing is with low P/E is that the market has priced in modest predicted earnings. The trouble with high P/E is that the market has priced in high future earnings. That makes the stock much more susceptible to drops if those profits aren't realized. It also means that future profits are less likely to have a positive effect on stock price if good profits are realised as those profits are likely to have already been priced in. But with Tesla stock, all metrics go out the window. I don't think that I've seen a company report a halving of its profits and seen the share price rally. I don't think that I've seen a company report two quarters of falling sales and see the stocks rally further! You're betting on investor loyalty with Tesla. From my observations, that isn't going anywhere, anytime soon.

TESLA was near $270 last year July 10 2023. Who cares.

Shorts are stupud. Unlimited loss risk. Just buy puts if you think TSLA has topped and about to roll over.
