Bad print and still up 5% today.

My new investment strategy is to liquidate every last thing I own.  Then just constantly buy Tesla calls with a strike date right after earnings.  

yesterday's bill directed target multiple core Tesla's business lines.

it is not just the 7,500 EV credit; the new fines for automakers not meeting cafe standards is $0.00

Tesla made MORE selling cafe credits than it did selling cars last quarter; are other companies really going to spend millions to avoid a fine of zero?

i think the Tesla board might have to remove the guy who just spent over $250,000,000 of his own money to get a guy elected who promised to destroy the EV industry, and is now doing so - any other CEO would be bounced for that

the irrational exuberance that has surrounded Tesla is breaking IMHO

I'm shorting Tesla by a lot.

a lot of people have lost a lot of money doing that, but I agree sooner or later it's going to be the right play!

It gets posted here quite a bit.  But nothing describes Tesla better than the Keynes quote.

LOL - was it you that posted the old line about the market being able to stay irrational longer than an investor can stay solvent? Tends to apply to these guys I guess.

Actually, if he's shopping the idea around instead of just doing it I would guess he's not sure of his ground and is trying to gauge how much push back he's likely to get.
