In the unlikely event that Tesla goes bankrupt, that actually keeps the company going while it sorts out its debts.

No. The 10 months was based on the $2b+ raised. Tesla reported another $2b+ in cash at end of Q1. The shorts are everywhere and they are not reliable.

Sounds like a super effective policy.

This article is trying too hard to paint a negative picture. The Solar Roof was never suggested as a cornerstone of Tesla's near-term solar activity. If the Buffalo factory can produce more than Tesla needs I don't see what the pr

So it's not fixable with software update?

Some might argue the transparency and eyeballs are even more crucial in such a situation.

I think Tesla was smart to appeal initially to the European automotive fans. I've bought German all my life but my next car will be a Tesla. Think I think the made-in-America customers will come around. I think the Asian car fans will

"Tomorrow" was facetious, I apologize. But based on existing 50% contribution margins it's quite clear it could achieve earnings in the near term. But of course with such contribution margins and growth rates it would be sill

I never understood how it was even possible for a relatively small sliver of the dev stack to command a $1b valuation.

"We couldn't agree to the NDA even if we wanted" Why would that be the case? The NDA would be fore going forward.

If you can invest $1 to make $2 you should then invest that $2 immediately, not put it in the bank.

$211m loss on $776m in sales is not staggering. The company is decreasing losses and still doubling sales!

This tweet demonstrates a lack of basic finance knowledge. Stock prices are based on ==future== cash flows, not past. It's already a huge company still growing very fast and printing money on core product (non-pool rides in mature mark

It did not occur to me that this is linked to politics until you mentioned it. If you feel that is hindering oyu in any way, feel free to skip the mention.

Here's a nice video: https://answerswithjoe.com/lidar-vs-computer-vision-waymo-be... It's a little more compelling on the data side but also goes into Lidar vs vision. It might be controversial at this point to as

Well, you forgot my lengthiest scribe: "Sure it’s laggier but with dedicated silicon that’s a non-issue. Fact is vision is more than adequate. And lidar is literally blind." There's no evidence that I have seen that suggests
