| Is it patriotism to start shorting Tesla now? Are Tesla bros going to attempt a short squeeze? |
Yup, Chinese Communists and American Marxists are sharing the same bed. |
Well that poster was wrong, it was Trump who ultimately destroyed Tesla and he didn't even invite the Chinese to bring their EVs. |
Absolutely! We have always been at war with Tesla. |

Tesla is already suffering steep declines in sales and profit. The company’s share price plummeted 14 percent on Thursday, its biggest one-day decline, after Mr. Musk and Mr. Trump began insulting each other on social media. The stock recovered somewhat Friday, rising nearly 4 percent, perhaps on hopes that the men would reach a truce or because investors thought the stock was now a bargain after the previous day’s drop. There was always a disconnect between Mr. Musk and his Republican allies on electric cars. The domestic policy bill passed by House Republicans and being considered by the Senate will hurt the electric car market in the United States, where Tesla is the largest manufacturer by far. |

China is way ahead of us on solar. |
The fight is going to be long and tough so if you have Tesla stock you need to hang in there for the long term. Electric cars and solar are the future. It has been very successful so far and a few quarters of decline in sales are not going to be the end of the world for it. The stock market is fickle. |
Tech bro support Musk not Trump. |
Tesla stock was always a meme stock, even after these large drops its PE is 156. Its solar business is unprofitable, that’s why Solar City went bankrupt and Musk bailed out his cousin. Electric cars may be the future, but there is 50 years of oil available at current rates, and with advancements in hybrid technology and oil shale extraction it can easily go to 100. We may develop a synthetic fuel generated from electrical sources, which may provide higher energy density and faster refueling than batteries. Tesla has been a high flying stock because of Musk, and while the Musk Meme Bros are hanging on, he is really jeopardizing it. |
Look Tesla is not competitive EV car wise with the new stuff on the market. The Chinese beat Tesla on price, quality and innovation right now. The cars coming out in the next two years have 5 minute 85% charging, 1,000 mile range and will cost in the $15k-$20k. No western car manufacturers can compete. The US consumer pays $20k-$30k US manufacturing “tax” on new cars. Trump and the Republicans recognize these facts and conceded the EV race to the Chinese(also all green energy- solar, wind, wave, geothermal, nuclear, etc). This is why they are just subsidizing oil, gas and ICE cars. Trump BBB budget will force the closure of US EV plants and battery production. Tesla will lose its regulatory credits. Under Biden companies invested 24 billion and were tracking to produce 200k jobs. So much for good factory jobs. Tesla stock is not held for EVs but AI, auto driving and maga support. The auto driving is way behind and maga support is questionable at this point. It is not close on AI. Interestingly China has so many EVs(including trucking and trains) on the road it has reduce the world demand curve for oil. The EV race is over and the US has lost. |
Tesla megapacks are selling very well. They have a year's worth of backorders. They are building a new megapack factory near Houston right now. |
Do you have a link for this and how long will it take to develop? |
No. We are not giving up our economy to China. |
