In what way does Tesla’s stock price gratify intellectual curiosity today?
Does today’s change in price materially improve or worsen Tesla’s product, ability to manufacture product, and/or cost of Tesla vehicles or feature options?
Should I post to the front page each time Microsoft stock goes up? IBM? Bitcoin? Should I restrict such posts to stock prices that are powers of 2, so that it’s intellectually curious when it would not otherwise be?
You haven’t made a case that Tesla’s share price is intellectually curious in any respect yet, and that’s my still-unanswered question to you:
Why is today’s share price increase specifically relevant to HN?
- xkjkls 7y agoValuations should still be important. Given that Tesla has almost doubled in 5 trading days, that should be considered a significant event.
- floatingatoll 7y agoThanks!
- bojo 7y agoxkjkls gave a great answer, but does it matter? If the HN crowd upvoted it to the front page then enough people thought it was a valid topic that warranted some discussion.
- floatingatoll 7y agoI do often see posts in new that have 40+ upvotes and were flagged as soon as they reached the front page, so I don't take anything for granted.
