    I am neither long or short TSLA so my opinion is worthless.

    The market's "opinion" is worth something and that something is somewhere around $646 at the moment.

    All those bomb throwers should step up and short the mofo otherwise their opinion on the topic is just as worthless as mine.

    You can tell exactly who the TSLA short are in this thread.

    But let's get back to @Pekelo : Are you going to post short fills or throw worthless price predictions out there?

    I think that the biggest risk to TSLA is, collectively, the Japanese Companies: Honda, Toyota, and most importantly Panasonic, which manufactures loads of batteries for pretty much everything.

    Imagine an electric version of the Camry/RAV4, or Accord/CRV. All the performance of a Tesla, at an affordable price, with all the other benefits of that Toyota and Honda offer:

    - Reliable for the masses: functional and affordable transportation for the middle class.
    - A strong network of dealers and service centers
    - An established after-market for parts.
    I heard a story about a guy who dented his TSLA fender. It cost him USD 7,000.00 (seven thousand United States dollars) to fix, because it had to be taken to a TSLA service center.

    We all know that both of these firms are driving working electric cars around their test track, powered by a Panasonic or other Japanese battery start-up.

    To hell with the Model 3. When Honda drops a muscle version of the Clarity, I'm getting out my checkbook.

    This is the canary in the mine. Look at the new models from these companies.

    So somehow the market hasn't caught on to Panasonic which is about 1/3 of its ATH huh?

    When you throw value out the window, that to me equals bubbles.
    1000 by end of February, based on what "fear of missing out"?

    Selling under half a million cars a year doesnt warrant to me a $100 billion market cap. And one minor small recession and tesla could lose half its value in a few months.

    An often repeated trading market truism is that they move a certain direction not because they want to ... but because they have to.

    Shorts, I think you'll find me and various others have said DO NOT BET AGAINST MUSK EVER, you should really listen ohhh too late.

    Your shorting because you hate the guy and you want him to fail, but he's smart and does not know how to fail, give it up, in doing so your losing money straight to him fools!!

    They aren't normal cars, they are luxury cars for the rich and famous, these are not ford focuses or fiesta's, you don't have to be a sad no lifer to drive them.
