The next post here in which you actually cite your claims will be your first. https://www.washingtonpost.com/us-policy/2019/02/06/people-like-estate-tax-whole-lot-more-when-they-learn-how-wealth-is-distributed/ https://www.reuters.com/article/us-usa-election-inequality-poll/majority-of-americans-favor-wealth-tax-on-very-rich-reuters-ipsos-poll-idUSKBN1Z9141 A majority of *Republicans* support a wealth tax.

So...court rulings no longer matter.

Confirmed covid cases to zero by end of April.

From my limited reading, Battery Day boiled down to: -Tesla is working on manufacturing their own batteries. They don't yet work via their test pilot program. They may available in 2-3 years. -Tesla unveiled its Model S Plaid, a super car with specs that almost no one but the super rich care about. The car has been worked on for over a year and won't be available until at least late 2021 at the starting price of $140k. Supposedly does 0-60 in under 2 seconds, 520+ mile range, tri motor...of course, specs are dependent on the battery project in the first point. To me, this kills the point of the Roadster, which they unveiled in 2017 and said would be in production by 2020...a 621 mi range, 0 to 60 in under 2 seconds, etc. -Elon thinks they can get the cost of an EV down to $25k in 3 years - the exact claim he made in August 2018. Seems kind of like a waste. They have a concept for a tabless battery that they admit doesn't work yet. Some future specs on cars that probably won't come to fruition within the stated timeline. And this event was delayed by six months lmao.

https://elonmusk.today/ has that covered and more. -A coast to coast autonomous (robotaxi) trip was supposed to be completed by 2017...well, then 2018. Has never happened. -Musk promised a 621 mile (1,000 km) battery range at 2015 Battery Day "within a year or two, 2017 for sure" - keep an eye on that later toady. He said the cars would be fully autonomous in three years (so...2018). -He also said 745 mile range by 2020. -At Autonomy Day (the April 2019 event you linked to) he said full self driving would be feature complete...to the point where no interventions would be needed and you could sleep at the wheel by mid-2020 (later updated to by the end of 202..."1m robotaxis"). He also said the vehicles would appreciate in value very soon and likely be able to generate $30k/year in profit as a robotaxi. -500k cars manufactured in a year by 2018...well...then...2019....well...then...2020 (they might finally hit it this year since they added a second factory in China). -The same # as above basically - in 2017 he said Tesla would produce 10,000 units a week by the end of 2018 - he said "zero concern." They have yet to achieve that metric. Again, these are just some of the outlandish promises/lies.

Tesla is holding both its shareholder meeting and "Battery Day" presentations today. Can't wait to see what lies Elon will concoct this time!

https://www.marketwatch.com/story/heres-what-wall-street-is-saying-about-nikola-founders-shocking-departure-2020-09-21 A wild week or so for Nikola Motors, which has EV prototypes of a pickup truck and semi, but now faces allegations of fraud. Its founder resigned yesterday.

NASDAQ is still up ~20% YTD.

Incorrect - https://www.tradingview.com/symbols/FX-FAANG/ Up 5% since 10:44. As of now, you did a good job calling the bottom of the day actually.

Depending on which index / tracker you like to use, "tech stocks" are up 5-7% since this post.

Apparently, I need to search more than three characters to get results. Seems to have been my issue.

VIX generally doesn't increase like this without more of a pullback. That's something to watch. Markets also got jittery this time in 2016 ahead of election "uncertainty."

300+ residential units with 236 parking spaces in a city with not great public transit does not seem ideal, imo. I understand the idea - try to force people to go without a vehicle, essentially - but I'm not sure it will play out that way in our carcentric city.

Always identifying the most important questions.

My understanding is there is some sort of meeting tonight. To the comments! The comments redacted in red is the same person.

TSLA is up 254% since its CEO said the stock price was too high...four months ago.

TSLA and AAPL traded today for the first time at their post-split prices. Apple gained 3.18%. Tesla gained 12.57%. This is absurd. Fractional shares have existed for a long time on many platforms/brokerages.

Their owners are conspiracy theorists who think drinking their non-GMO bone broth is a vaccine for coronavirus. There are also *plenty* of stories out there about them allowing/endorsing a racist workplace.

I'm not sure if it's just me, but my searches now show zero results, no matter what I search.

I'm excited to try it. Hopefully they do well enough to stick around post-covid.
