In the last few minutes of trading, stock made a swing of 69 - that's amazing. Never seen anything like this even on options expiry day. SEC should look into this - was there a pre-agreed price fixing between big funds and index funds or something else that amounts to manipulation. After market closed, it went down by 21. So, that makes a move of 100.
B
Do they have any plan at Tesla or is it just make an announcement and see how the stock price does and if it goes down change the announcement?
Yes, Tesla's stock fluctuates more that the total worth of GM and Ford put together.

Tesla Giga Texas Is Ready to Start Model Y Production in Coming Days, as Paperwork Is Complete
Tesla Giga Texas is ready to start production of Model Y in the coming days, as paperwork is now clearing the way, says Daniel Ives, based on research from the firm. The testing of production machines is almost complete and the manufacturer has the green light.
Wedbush Managing Director and Senior Equity Analyst Daniel Ives wrote on Saturday that Tesla's factory in Austin—Giga Texas—will begin mass production in the next 7-10 days. He pointed out that according to the firm's research, all the paperwork has already been completed and, in fact, the company has received the green light to start production.
Rumors about the imminent start of mass production at Giga Texas appeared on January 1. On January 4, Travis County spokesperson Hector Nieto said that certain areas of the factory have already received certificates of compliance from the county fire marshal. Those certificates are similar to a certificate of occupancy and are necessary before a company can open a building. Since the existing Giga Texas building will be used for the production of Model Y, Model 3, Cybertruck, and Semi, there is every reason to believe that the certificates refer to the workshops that will manufacture Model Y, for which Tesla intends to start production. Thus, these documents probably paved the way for Tesla to start production.
The launch of production at Giga Texas is very important as the demand for the manufacturer's vehicles continues to grow. In 2021, Tesla delivered about 936,000 vehicles, about half or even more of which were Model Y. The compact SUV is in high demand, but not available in sufficient quantities, and the opening of additional production facilities is vital.
The start of production at Giga Berlin is delayed due to a lengthy approval process, so Giga Texas is likely to start operations even earlier than the factory in Europe, which began construction a few months earlier. The imperfection of the German political apparatus has had a negative impact, but the start of production at Giga Berlin should also start soon, as the approval process is already in its final stages.
Good luck and GOD bless,

Well this was certainly an interesting day. Tesla stock was up $7.00 with over 2.3 million shares traded in the first 35 minutes. This obviously was due to shorts covering. After the initial up swing, the stock started heading back down. Fortunately it only was off .49 for the day.
Elon made an interesting comment stating Tesla had enough orders to break the 4th quarter record but was unsure the sales could be completed by the end of the quarter. This creates an interesting question, while previously he stated they had received 50,000 new orders, what ever happened to the 400,000 orders Tesla had previously been reporting? Since Tesla recently announced the pricing for model 3's in China and supposedly started taking orders for them, how many of those new orders were for the as yet producing Chinese Model 3's?
There have been some postings on this board that basically highlighted Tesla's technological lead in battery technology. Well that's interesting since Tesla doesn't have any. There was a recent article stating that Tesla was interested in being able to produce their own batteries. The Reno factory is a joint venture between Tesla and Panasonic and based upon Panasonic's decision NOT to invest to expand the Reno factory one could surely speculate that all is not right with the arrangement. In addition, since Tesla has reportedly signed contracts to have a Chinese manufacturer provide them with the batteries for that plant it would appear that they have some serious concerns with Tesla.
Anyway, my projections for Tesla's 2nd quarter results and sells of 84,000 vehicles and total revenue of $5.8 billion. The bigger question has got to be how big of a loss is Tesla going to report? They raised $2.7 billion in May from selling additional stock and bonds. However, it cost them $400 million in expenses to raise that additional capital. So another question has got to be how are they going to expense the costs of raising that additional capital? If they just expense it, then their loss for the second quarter is going to be close to 1 billion dollars.

Tesla headwinds - I have been talking about China and autopilot for many months now. - China, were Tesla expected to sell 30-40% of global sales, has turned sour. Govt doesn't need Tesla any more and is squeezing it out. Q1 - Q2 saw a sales drop 69k-61k. Will plummet further in Q3. - Autopilot regulatory oversight is increasing with new NHTSA rules and as deaths increase will be forced to act. Like in China expect more challenges, especially with Vision only, radar removal. - remember Tesla has charged customers over $1B for autopilot over last 4years with nothing to show for it. SEC could act. - Design corner cutting is coming up with Plaid fire. Lack of 4680 forced a quick switch to small cells pack. Bag of potatoes - causing fire. - 4680 issues - puts cybertruck in jeopardy unless Tesla does a quick change to large format $GM, $F, $VWAG style batteries. Continues misteps by $TSLA give competition including $NIO and $XPEV a chance to do better.
Negative Q2 and poor Q3-Q4 sales is likely.

Why buy a Tesla today when the technology and pricing is getting better and better every year? I was looking into the model 3 and the self-driving upgrade is $10,000 extra! A few years from now it will probably be included.
b
TSLA rallied again today with a BIG volume. Institutions are buying big time.

Do shareholders really think TSLA will show a profit the next two quarters? If I were holding shares I would be dumping now, long before earnings. Leading up to earnings will be a bloodbath of selling. I guarantee funds are distributing shares to retail investors at these prices. Only a matter of time before the revenue and profit and cash flow warning hits the news wires. If it is any solace, the traditional carmakers are in for a serious hurt too. So TSLA may keep their market cap equal to the big 3 combined, but when the big 3 lose half their value, well...

If TSLA was smart, they would do a secondary offering right now to capitalize on this bubble.

"Tesla updates battery software after fires"....People are going to learn the hard way that not everything can be fixed with "software updates". These are still cars with lots of physical parts and critical high amperage electrical connections that don't tolerate corrosion and vibration well.
T
$TSLA all the "pro analyst " saying that tesla trades like a tech stock and should trade like a car manufacturer...well, seems like my money has been in a lot better hands in Tesla than the tech I own. Apple hasn't done anything all year. Same with Amazon. Google is up a bit. Best is miscrosoft but doesn't move like Tesla has.
P
Tesla solar and powebank adoption has been rapidly increasing. I believe Tesla is more than just a car company but an energy and technology company. Soon their AI by itself will be a product just not on cars. There's a lot of room for his next innovative reinvention.

Tesla Plans to Build 'World's Largest' Battery Plant Near Berlin The factory is Tesla's first in Europe and is expected to churn out 5,00,000 Model 3 sedans and Model Y SUVs per year.
It will push $10eps next year. P/E today means nothing. Just a scare tactic. Most people on this Board don't read anything but headlines. If you took the time, you'd know they pushed Musk's annual salary ahead several quarters which hurt this quarter but will help later. They absorbed expenses on vehicles without offsetting sales which actually reduced COGs even though it was still an impressive improvement. And then there's the stock based compensation that was also way higher than expected but will be reduced in later quarters. All you can talk about is energy credits and Bitcoin. So, all of the EV makers get the credits and I don't see anyone complaining about share buybacks as a means of boosting EPS. Other companies do it routinely. Selling some Bitcoin strategically is the same strategy. It's a good business practice. Besides they earned the money to but $1B in Bitcoin in the first place. They had a good quarter, not great. They're developing a new company and multiple other businesses simultaneously. Their PE is coming down as their earnings are growing. It will likely be below 100 next year assuming production gets rolling and the other businesses continue development. It's a good story in the making but still needs to prove out. People said the same about Amazon when it started.

Musk is in charge to receive bonus for 30/40 billion .The amount is similar to the turnover of the company...difficult not to think that this kind of bonus do not createimportant manipulation to the value of the stock.This may be the real explanation of what has happened in 2020
Ford's market cap=$51.246B
The size of Tesla's dip=$139.72B
