yah... her import new honda crv didnt fair very well.
but she still spun me around twice.
little girl trys to tell me she was only going 20 from a stop on a right hand turn....
she ran the red and had to be going 70..
came flying out of hell......Surprise...
Then she's also lucky to be alive. Accident reconstruction will figure out who's telling the truth.

If she spun you around twice and your vehicle weighs twice as much, I'd be inclined to believe your story over hers.

No. When their stock values the company the same as GM or Ford, there's no longer any upside. It's already been priced in.

I want to see Tesla survive and succeed. He's not there yet. Hype won't help.

He has a long way to go to build a successful car company. Meanwhile, Porsche is selling twice the cars (solidly backed by Volkswagen AG) and even GM is selling 20,000 Bolts a year with no production or supply chain management issues.

Long story short, Elon now needs to DELIVER.
People who order Teslas also feel like they are looking into the future & buying into Elons Green Dream. The money has to come from somewhere, sure aint gonna get any help from this government.

I don't dispute any of this.

The money still has to work.

The stock price is simply unrealistic, period.

The next crash is coming... And Tesla has a bad case of overexposure.

Okay I'll bite; how do you short a stock without using a put option?
You really should ask your broker or financial adviser to give you a basic education in finance.
Google is a good resource too.
"Shorting, or short-selling, is when an investor borrows shares and immediately sells them, hoping he or she can scoop them up later at a lower price, return them to the lender and pocket the difference"
It ain't what you don't know that gets you into trouble. It's what you know for sure that just ain't so.

So what's the difference between what you just said and a put option?

Geez, Loweez! :wall: are you trolling me? lol O.K. I'll play along. When you short a stock you sell shares you don't have and will have to replace at some point. This makes you subject to margin calls and you could lose a bunch of money. If you buy a put option your risk is limited to the price of the option, hence my saying its too risky to short, buy puts instead if you are bearish on Tesla.

In line at ChikFilA
Day before saw a viper srt, lambo mercialago, Ferrari not the f40, a Porsche and a BMW I8.

I like the new power wagon but holding out for the return of the Bronco.
A Gallardo in a Savile Row suit!

I live in west Bumfuk, and here there is a guy tooling around in a bright orange McLaren. It adds a bit of scenery to the two-lane blacktop.

~edit~ Don't give Chik-Fil-A your business. They treat gays as less-than-human. They use the Bible as their excuse. Feh.

This is a double edged sword, cause it (their bible thumping mentality) also gives them the absolute best customer service of any fast food chain, and the chicken is fried deliciousness. I don't give my money to fast food too often, they are traps for their employees and customers. Keep pay low and customers returning, cycle through the American public. So I do apologize for not considering this particular malfeasance into my decision.

You could always strap a straddle on a butterfly and get it to strip. 8)

I dream of Mustangs; got a pretty done '89 LX. You see the ads for the 2022 electric mustang on TV yet. Zero to sixty in 3.5 seconds. Supposed to have all wheel drive and 1400 Hp.
Hey if they're making a 1000 Hp electric Hummer you got to have a 1400 Hp 'stang!
