Tesla stock

[x65943]

Anyone else notice Tesla stock is at all time highs despite:

Poor sales
Lower profits
Decrease in brand loyalty
Cybertruck being a flop
Robotaxis years away
FSD still a pipe dream
Optimus robots in basically pre prototype stages

What is keeping the stock price afloat? Musk doesn't exactly have pals in DC anymore - who keeps buying?

Yep. Something smells wrong.

 

[SeltzerMist]

Maybe it's money laundering lmao

I have my bets on Daddy's money

I think I found the answer

The stripped down 2 seater is going to come out at a reduced price and a steering wheel

What does this mean

I think just about the entire stock market is sitting atop a big fat bubble right now, completely divorced from actual economic reality. Value of the dollar is down, inflation and unemployment are up, and nobody's getting food assistance starting in November. Eventually that disparity will have to be reconciled, and that will likely result in a big crash sometime late this year or early next. Market manipulation by billionaires can only carry you so far and for so long.

You wanna be suspicious over Tesla stock of all things?

There is no suspicion of wrong doing, I am just legitimately curious what leads its stock to continue to rise without clear reasoning

But perhaps it's insider knowledge about this 2 seater Tesla

It's called investors

There's big demand of them in China right now

Perhaps, tho it is thought the recent surge may just be trying to avoid a new 5% tax which would amount to some 14,000 yuan additional on even the cheapest models

My cousin has never invested before, but he owns Tesla stock. Conservative media is saying that it's the stock to buy, and a lot of folks are looking very rich off of it right now.

Recently, Elon bought $2 billion dollars of Tesla stock, which caused his existing shares to increase by $12 billion, caused primarily by retail investors.

It's a huge pyramid scheme, but the question is when is the pyramid going to topple. Only the insiders know, and now that the SEC isn't enforcing against any criminal activity, they can trigger a dip, rise or crash whenever they want, switching to shorts the moment before it happens. Us retail investors can only guess based on financial news that's heavily controlled by the same interests that control the market.

There is sooooo much stock manipulation going on now, and zero regulation on it. People who are holding onto the stocks don't get completely affected by the dips, but they also don't get the benefit of cashing out before it and then buying at the lowest point.

Coffeezilla did a video on someone who made $180 million in a single day by shorting the market before Trump mentioned the 100% tariffs on China. It is rumored to be Barron Trump who did it, but yeah, that's the world we live in today.

$TSLA is a volatile stock with price targets ranging from $19 to $600, and the likelyhood of burning all the way to the ground is very low. There’s a lot of potential for gains and confidence is, generally speaking, very high. The stock market is driven by numbers just as much as it is driven by sentiment, and in this case, sentiment is favourable. Outside of sentiment and market indicators, autonomous driving is the next big thing in transport, both in terms of persons and cargo, and investors looking to invest long-term would be inclined to back the market leader in the field.

Right now it seems alphabet's waymo is the leader

At least in my area it's the only service that actually provides autonomous rides, and I see them everywhere

That said, again, sentiment is probably driving this more than facts and my guess is a lot of the price is driven by retail investors

Google historically has very weak follow-through unless a project is immediately profitable. They’ve put more technology on the chopping block than just about any other Silicon Valley entity, so much so that it became a meme.

That does not create confidence. Elon on the other hand is an autism machine and once he’s fixated on something, he will stick to it.

Google stock is also at an all time high

Waymo is doing something like 250,000 rides per week (probably higher now, that was 6 months ago) - so I think it's here to stay

They are expanding

I think Google is as close as you can get to a Blue Chip in the tech sector. The best time to invest in it is now, the only better time to do so was yesterday, so that goes without saying. The goal of an investor is to get in on the ground floor and Tesla’s high volatility enables one to butt in whenever a controversy rolls around and either reap quick rewards, comparatively speaking, or simply hold on to the stake for the future. Naturally this entails risk, but a lot of investors consider investing Tesla as investing into a hydra since Elon’s ventures come across as somewhat incestuous. They buy Tesla stock, but really, they’re thinking about all of his companies put together, not just the cars. In a lot of ways they’re investing in whatever Midas touches because it often turns into gold. I don’t think the company would be doing nearly as well without him at the helm, think Apple with vs. without Steve Jobs. He’s the quintessential eccentric billionaire.

Elon seems like a liability now but perhaps there is more to come

He has really turned me off from a Tesla I'll tell you that much
