I'm not one to try to time the market, but I think Tesla still has some space to fall.

​​​​​​ Like you, I don't try to predict the market, but I don't think we've seen the floor yet. Last January it hit $113, could even go lower this time

Perhaps the most eagerly awaited Tesla earnings in a long time. The results are what they are. We know they aren't going to be great - but that's only by Tesla standards. They will still deliver results better than others in the industry, but they get (unfairly) judged by different measures. My main concern is the earning call. History shows there's a more than decent chance that Musk goes off message and flubs it. If on the other hand he can stay disciplined and on message, this is his big chance to restate and rebuild support for his vision. The bar isn't that high, either. He just needs to stick to the script. The big question: Can he?

It's funny, this is the same comments I always hear right before an earnings call . Personally, I'm not going to stress myself out and am opting out on listing in. I'll get the cliff notes version from you guys 🤣

And you are totally correct, Tesla is held to an almost impossible standard, although to me that would be an honor. Most auto companies would love Tesla profit margins. What other company can cut the cost of car on the fly and still make insane profits...roughly $8279 per car

I think Robotaxi is a bad idea, but I hope I'm proven wrong

Dude, then why put 1 penny into Tesla stock? Elon has been chasing autonomy for 10 years that is his holy grail if you think it's a bad idea then you think the entire company is a bad idea.

That's a great freaking price for the performance

Edit: qualifies for the full $7,500 too. If you can recoup all of it, it's cheaper than the LR

Haha I can care less about stalks right now 🤣. I'm sorry Polestar. So sorry, you've been a great, reliable companion to me, but, sorry, come Jan, I have a new one. God willing
