    Car trouble. On May 22, China said it would cut import tariffs on passenger cars from 25% to 15%, effective July 1. Tesla immediately slashed $14,000 off the price tag of its Model S and Model X cars in China, hoping to make greater inroads on the world's largest market for EVs. But on May 23 Trump launched an investigation into whether America should raise its own auto import tariffs, for "national security" reasons. Bloomberg

    If you are following Tesla I'm sure you saw this...

    The above worked a minute ago. I think Google News is trying to bury the story...I'll try another link. Here is a different story...Thank you Google...You Nazis!!

    Here is a copy and paste of what the writer wrote in the comments...

    I hope you're right, but I will be astonished if this is a software issue. Then again, my wife says I am only right about 20% of the time, so we'll see.

    I also do not believe this never cropped up in pre-production testing of the car. CR had it happen to the car they bought and to a private loaner. Car & Driver says their test car did the same thing. That's three for three. Not good.

    If pre-production testing was so abbreviated it failed to detect an obvious problem, that is an indication the company is willing to take risks with customer safety in order to meet its own self imposed deadlines. It also speaks to the company policy of making its customers unpaid beta testers of its products.

    I know I am going to piss a lot of people off with that statement, but that's what the evidence suggests.

    These quotes became famous because they were exceptions; the majority of quotes that are made every day are correct. If the quotes you mention would proof that quotes in general are wrong, they would never appear as they would not be “spectacular”. You just proofed the opposite of what you wanted to proof.

    I wrote already before that Tesla is the ONLY carfacturer in the world that does NOT do a final check before delivering cars to the client. If the cars has failures it is up to the client to find out and let them fix (and pay for it?). I read this already in articles written by Tesla owners.

    That's no good reference as most women think they are walking encyclopedias. :D

    So the NTSB should not be concerned with a sedan that stops 7 feet farther than a Ford F150 Truck?? Both Car and Driver and CR came to the same conclusion...?? And they can come up with a "software" patch in a few days?? Do you really believe this?? Is this a Chevrolet Corvair or a Ford Pinto we are just waiting to see??

    Stock is surprisingly strong today when the rest of the market is selling off.

  9. (TSLA) is also higher, helped by a bullish note from Guggenheim. Analyst Robert Cihra reiterated a Buy rating and $430 price target on the shares today.

    Cihra writes that the science behind Tesla's products is proven, and once it can prove the math as well, the shares will rise. He sees the company doing this by driving positive gross-margin leverage on the Model 3, as production volumes finally increase, which will absorb the big fixed-cost structure Tesla has been building. He acknowledges that skepticism still "abounds," but he's growing more confident that Tesla can get production up to more than 5,000 Model 3s per week starting in the third quarter, boosting gross margins and pushing the company from losses to profits in the second half of the year. "We think a PROFITABLE Tesla could enable a much more positive stock narrative."

    i think that the people who say TSLA is a great short on THIS board have not studied the entire picture, maths, etc...and of course i'm not going to do it for said posters either..just let time tell.

    Another crash today...This one with a police car!! On autopilot...It looks like the car is totaled...

    Not again.


    In California, the Laguna Beach PD tweeted on Tuesday, May 29, that a Tesla Inc. (TSLA - Get Report) sedan was on autopilot when it collided with a parked Laguna Beach Patrol Car.
    No one was in the police car at the time of the crash and the Tesla driver had minor injuries.

    The cause of the crash is still unknown.
