That NHTSA Tesla “Sudden Unintended Acceleration” Petition? Created By A TSLA Short Seller Who Doesn’t…
First of all, I’ll say that I think we f***ed up by publishing an article on this topic that lacked important context and included misleading framing. I think that stemmed from trusting the reporting of a couple of normally good and thorough publications, and also from not digging deeply enough into the story independently.
Tesla [TSLA] Stock: It’s A Short Ride
Since November 22, the day after the Cybertruck reveal, the stock is up over $130, or 27%. It’s been quite the run. But, as I pointed out with an article on December 19, it still seems no one knows exactly why.
Reuters: In November 2017, Jim Chanos Said Elon Musk Would Leave Tesla By 2020 —…
It was just brought to my attention that Jim Chanos, one of Tesla’s fiercest short sellers, who believed/believes Tesla is a fraud, predicted in 2017 that Elon Musk would step down from his position as CEO of Tesla by 2020. He, like many short sellers, also predicted Tesla would go bankrupt, but he did not give a timeframe on that matter. As you can see, this information comes from a Reuters Global Markets Forum tweet from a little more than two years ago. It seems to be the only source of this information.
Johnny Appleseed Tesla Seedsters & The Tesla Market (& Stock Price) In 2013 — Tesla…
In this episode of “Tesla Inside Out,” we talk about David’s role getting sent down to Florida (from New York) in 2013 as a kind of Johnny Appleseed character — part of Tesla’s “asset light” program — in order to respond to consumer interest and stimulate sales in the region.
Ironically, David was sharing this story with me on Johnny Appleseed Day!
Tesla Reaches $420 On Festivus 2019
It finally happened. Tesla’s stock price reached an all-time high of $420, and on Festivus no less. 2020 may be around the corner, but 2019 is still here and it’s not over just yet. Today, as many who believe in a new way of celebrating the holiday season choose to celebrate Festivus, something magical happened.
With Tesla [TSLA] Hitting $420, Can We Retire The Lame $420 Memes?
I’m a fan of hilarious memes, but the nonsensical memes fully aimed at smearing Elon Musk and Tesla have been old and boring since day 1.
Is This The Main Reason Tesla Shorts Are Losing Money?
Tesla shorts have been losing money — a lot of money — and on the surface it’s because they’ve been betting on the failure of a company that is not only succeeding but changing every industry that it touches. They see this as madness, but the roots of their problem appear to be a basic error in the game “one of these things is not like the other.”
“Prognostications of Tesla’s doom have gone from concerning, to annoying, to boring, to pathetic”
I honestly don’t know why, but I find the Tesla short seller story to be one of the most fascinating stories in cleantech, or at least I did. At times in the past couple of years, Tesla [TSLA] has been the most shorted stock on the US stock market, and it seems Tesla short sellers (stock market traders betting against the company) have certainly gotten more press than short sellers of any other company. I think that is part of why it’s been such a fascinating story — because so much money has been betting against Tesla, and those Tesla pessimists have been dominating or at least greatly shaping media coverage of the company.
How TSLAQ Got Played In China
TSLAQ got played in China. It seems that the forces against Tesla are not that brilliant after all. Not only do they believe the lies they make up (never advisable), but they are apparently just gullible when it comes to anything potentially negative about Tesla. All one has to do is create a new Twitter account and tweet anti-Tesla stuff and they are in. Our favorite Tesla Gigafisherman, Chao Zhou, put this theory to the test — although, he may have done so without knowing it.
