    BTW, we’re seeing a lot of buzz about ‘Tesla competition sales.’ What many are missing is these are ICE premium car competitors. The ICE cars are ~98% of the market which is large enough everyone gets a bite.

    I see TSLA dropped to $411 today. My buy target is $300-350. I last sold shares at ~$400 (post split.) I want to see Giga Austin and Berlin come online.

    Non-engineers pontificating. Wait until they show up in the EPA listings and we can discuss them. Today, they are just "beta-ware."

    IMHO:
    • $300/share - 5% probability the week before Sept 22
    • $350/share - 15% probability the week before Sept 22
    • $375/share - 33% probability the week before Sept 22
    • $400/share - 100% probability between now and Sept 22
    The reasons:
    • Q2 2020 complete financials, Q3 financials not until Oct/Nov 2020
    • Q2 2020 investors call covering financials, a chance to ask questions but answers are optional
    • Sept 22 battery day
    So I might consider:
    • 1 share @$300
    • 2 shares @$350
    • 5 shares @$375
    The math model is the quantity decreases as the purchase price probability decreases. My expectation is the long term, stock increase means the smaller quantity and price leads to the expected, steady-state stock price. Profits are another discussion.

    very possible.

    but there's likely still a lot of termoil ahead for the market.

    my thoughts: one more round of stimulus, then you're on your own boys.

    short of an effective vaccine/treatment, there could be a lot of unemployment coming
