Apple without Steve Jobs just isn't the same, and Tesla will suffer both from growing competition and the predicted slow down in the EV market. With Apple, my perpetual concern is always how they can keep topping what might be the most profitable single product of all time. I've been wrong in that concern ever since Steve Jobs died but that doesn't mean the concern goes away. If phones ever become a non-premium product where nobody cares about having the latest and greatest model, what can they do next to drive growth? Tesla has some headwinds with the EV market slowing down but I wonder if that doesn't help them on the competition front. Tesla isn't going to quit EVs in terms of their focus but if Ford and GM start de-emphasize EVs, they are going to be even further behind if at some point in the future battery technology catches up to where it needs to be to make EVs work broadly in the first place. Maybe Tesla actually picks up EV market share with everyone else taking a second look at hybrids as the intermediate future. |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By burnka871: If he ever took spacex public I would throw every penny I had at it. Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By burnka871: Originally Posted By Pallas: AAPL is okay, I would have waited till it's lower. I bought AAPL in 2012 and am still sitting on it, an almost 800% gain. I've taking some gains here and there, but I don't think AAPL is going to increase or decrease any drastic amount. I wouldn't have bought Tesla. But, you shouldn't listen to me because in 2018/19 where everyone was talking about it, I told everyone they were stupid for buying it or considering buying it. It was $15.68 in 2019 (accounting for splits.)  I also said Putin wouldn't invade UKR. I know his reasons, but Musk would become the richest MF'er ever and probably stay in that position if he took Space-X public.If he ever took spacex public I would throw every penny I had at it. Yeah, that's one where I'd pay an insane multiple and I almost always stay away from insane multiples. It's a long shot, but if there ever was a guy who had the potential to be the world's first trillionaire, it's Elon Musk, and it'd be because of SpaceX and not Tesla. It's pretty unknown right now if Starship is going to be a bust or unlock a massive space economy in ways we never even contemplated both commercial and military. |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By macphisto: Cancelled my original market order the other night and placed a limit order for 20 shares at $150. It executed this morning. I'd wait until TSLA finds a new support level. It's going to bounce around this level for a while as dip buyers come in, but I see it falling more after that peters out. It's a growth stock. Not much news that reflects anything but more contraction. They're getting hosed in China by cheap completion, they cancelled the cheaper EV model and are making long term bets on the robo taxi and self drive tech. It's leading to a lot of investor unhappiness. None of that suggests near term growth. Eventually it will find a new support level. I doubt if this is it. |

If phones ever become a non-premium product where nobody cares about having the latest and greatest model, what can they do next to drive growth? some of these people are/were executives. Some of these are project managers, some are engineers is specific areas. Each one on the list was selected not only for their knowledge but their experience and have been involved with each and every product since 1998. All but a small handful of those on the list are still there. things people think are 5 years in the future were done 10 years ago and the market wasn't ready or the technology needs to mature. With all the above said, Apple has a very large portfolio of IP and has research ongoing in areas you would not expect. Hell, the whole reason Al Gore was on the board was because Apple was/is heavily involved in fusion energy research. None of the above should be considered financial advice but general information on things not often discussed |

Maybe Tesla actually picks up EV market share with everyone else taking a second look at hybrids as the intermediate future. The biggest threat to Tesla might be when Toyota ramps up--they claim to be a couple years away from finally putting solid state batteries on the road. The future of battery-powered vehicles is probably plug-in hybrids and series hybrids like the Ramcharger, and Tesla is not in either of those markets. For any of the big established manufacturers, it will be relatively easy for them to enter and expand in these segments. |

I guess Elon owns Waffle House too.  Quite the backtrack. Tesla (TSLA) stock jumped in after-hours trading on Tuesday after the company said it would accelerate the launch of more affordable vehicles, countering reports earlier this month the company would scrap these plans. "We have updated our future vehicle line-up to accelerate the launch of new models ahead of our previously communicated start of production in the second half of 2025," Tesla said in its first quarter shareholder release. On the earnings call, CEO Elon Musk said the timelines for new vehicles could be in early 2025, if not later this year. Tesla declined to say when the cheap EV will debut, though Musk did say the company would talk more about these vehicles on Aug. 8, the day the robotaxi will be revealed. "These new vehicles, including more affordable models, will utilize aspects of the next generation platform as well as aspects of our current platforms, and will be able to be produced on the same manufacturing lines as our current vehicle line-up," Tesla said in the release.  |
