In the unlikely case that Tesla went bust there would not be an American auto industry 5-10 years from now when ICE truck demand collapses.
Also I would just have to get a 6-8 year old ICE car instead of a new Tesla. New ICE cars are not worth buying and other electric cars are years behind Tesla and therefore not interesting to me.

I wonder why reporters don’t list the number of accidents and fatalities with ICE automobiles and identify the brand involved in that fatality. This comparison would be fair in my mind and not perceived as short bias among the short term profiteers and haters.

Tesla has a giant factory IN CHINA to be completed before the end of the year… tariffs an issue when they’re made in China?
Old Duff
May 23, 2019 at 3:57 pm
China is a perfect place for that junk. Can’t wait to watch the LiveLeak videos of electrocuted Chinese at the SuperCharger in the future. Fuk the Chinese still can’t make a escalator that doesn’t eat two year old kids or put elevators in buildings that don’t plummet to the basement. So unless your wearing some special Tesla rubber boots charging that crap in China I wouldn’t put too much stock in the whole thing.

Marcus Aurelius
May 23, 2019 at 3:48 pm
Independent of the trade/tariff issue … people were delusional if they ever thought China was going to allow Tesla to enter the country to dominate; enter, yes. but to dominate was never going to be allowed. So Tesla always had this wall facing them; it is probably best that they not enter into China as their entrance would only exist as the substrate upon which China will develop Chinese platforms to dominate in EVs.
CHINA WILL NEVER ALLOW SOMETHING LIKE A CAR COMPANY TO DOMINATE IN CHINA. WAKEUP PEOPLE!
Tony MacDonald
May 23, 2019 at 4:31 pm
up, china actually allowed Tesla to be the first company to set up shop there without giving away their tech to the government. I think you think you know what your talking about, but your wrong. Production will be starting Q4 this year by the way. 🙂

Tony MacDonald
May 23, 2019 at 4:26 pm
Please explain to me how Tesla is going to be bothered by tariffs in China when they are building them IN CHINA! Tesla’s not going to ship all the parts there, they have plenty of supply chain options locally. All of this concern is fueled by shorts and oil corrupted media. And to the Tesla death… OK look there is a death in the US from a car crash every 16 minutes. Yet there have only ever been 4 deaths in a Tesla. Don’t trust anyone that tells you that a Tesla is unsafe or that the company is doomed. And to the demand idiocy, Tesla is likely to be surprising people with deliveries this quarter. 😉
We need to stop listening to analysts, because most of them are bought out, and start doing our own research. If you ignore them, they will go a way.

Official Model3 production numbers (from Tesla investors website):
18Q1: 9,766
18Q2: 28,578
18Q3: 53,239
18Q4: 61,394
19Q1: 62,975
Bloomberg Tesla tracker estimates 46,288 produced for Q2 so far as of 05/22 (still 6 weeks until end of quarter). With conservative projection, that’s 84k Model3 at end of Q2. The production follows the demand (minimum inventory). These cars are selling like hot cakes.

There have been 50 Tesla fires, a few deaths, but that is just how our world is right now, it’s really dangerous … and it’s about 10x more dangerous in a cheap gas car, than in a 40-80K USD EV.
BTW the e-Tron, EQC and i-Pace are also getting really good crash/safety ratings.

When talking about autopilot safety, you should specify how many deaths there are per mile driven, and compare that to the normal human. You can’t just say “a person died, thats bad”

May 24, 2019 at 2:28 am
It’s very weird how so many analysts are not noticing that Tesla is not trying to boost demand.
Tesla is maximizing margins while trying to generate just enough demand..
So many of them are worried about demand but Tesla has lots of ways to boost demand, most of them would cost in terms of margins though.
In Europe the cheapest Model 3 starts just bellow 50k euros, the $35k base model would be priced at 41-42k euros if made available or even 39.9k euros with an effort.
In China everybody is waiting for local output and lower prices.
Tesla’s leasing terms are terrible as they don’t like the impact on cash flow, They don’t list online 2 key versions, they don’t offer dual motor for standard range, they have very few options available (options boost ASPs and margins alongside demand). Increasing prices and including Autopilot hurts demand, they can always reverse that. FSD is practically 100% margins,they can reduce price to maximize revenue while increasing the car’s appeal. Their own insurance lowers cost of ownership and that boosts demand. Just a few actions they can take if needed but there are plenty more and that’s before any marketing, PR, leveraging other products (including Superchargers) , large fleet deals and so on.
When they need to act to boost demand, they will act but they are not there yet. Model S an X got a major update in the low season and they are ramping back up.
BTW that Craig dude is funny, I suppose Model S with 370 miles of range is way long in the tooth and the most innovative suspension in decades that will become much better with software updates as Tesla transitions from reactive suspension to preemptive, is nothing that matters in a car. Who wants comfort, especially in an autonomous vehicle, what’s the point of driving if you don’t spill your hot coffee on your crotch. Journalism and gossip should not be confused.

Nice to hear Gene’s take on it. As a shareholder myself, i’m a little nervous when he says TSLA could trade even lower in next 3 to 6 months. Hopefully it won’t get too much worse. I’ll sit tight for now, I don’t think this company is about to disappear anytime soon, and if the growth story does pan out it will have been well worth the wait

Model 3 no way comparable to a Honda Civic – but does outsell it in some markets eg California 2nd half 2108, Switzerland, Norway. Outsells premium sedans in most countries.
Lease is $399/mth.
Can cost less than a Honda Accord or Toyota Camry total cost including use.

It’s a pity that the the glasses the analyst is wearing don’t allow him to see beyond the end of his nose. Right now, with a back log of 300,000 pre-orders for the model 3, most other car companies would pray for Tesla’s ‘lack of demand’ issues.

It is easy; Tesla is on an downward spiral because of idiots talking bullshit and speculations getting the stock down. It will get some more down. Until the Q2 numbers roll out. Than people will realize they have been scammed (again) by stupid analysts (or shorts) and will buy back. Maybe we need Q3 numbers for it. Just the usual with Tesla stock.
Grzegorz Kapica
May 24, 2019 at 11:29 am
About China; Tesla has got a deal there, like nobody else before. So it is some good things going on. If you get a good deal in China, you are being backed there. So easy it is. In China you can not die with a good product. There you thrive. So I see China as a live line for Tesla. Maybe US and Europe will not go towards self driving cars because of political bullshit. In China there will be easy decisions: the computer is better, than a human, just go with it. So a huge opportunity for self driving cars. So a huge opportunity for Tesla.

We will know Bloomberg is in the news business vs. the advertising business when it’s story and data spread show things in perspective. When TV is in the advertising business the “news” goes to the people who pay for the ads. Oil and car companies have to buy billions in ads because it’s simply not compelling that we subsidize oil more than 500bn per year in order to cause disease with noiser and less safe vehicles. Tesla is hitting a home run in facts while ford and gm are so far behind they should be in the news daily. That’s the difference between news and the ad business.

May 24, 2019 at 7:03 pm
No matter what Tesla does, the short thesis will continue to shift. Since 2013, the short thesis has changed 6 times! First, no one wants an electric vehicle. Debunked. They can’t sell Model S at a profit. Debunked. No one wants a luxury SUV. Debunked. Competition is here so Tesla is screwed. Model 3 outsold Chevy Bolt 12 to 1 in 2018. Debunked. They won’t be able to produce a mass market car. Debunked. Now it’s shifted from production issues to demand issues. Debunked, Debunked, Debunked, Debunked, Debunked, Debunked!!! Anyone else see a theme here? haha

disappears? How will that impact residual equity for owners? Why no ability to
get second party repairs?
Pull up your big boy/girl pants and do some real reporting. Maybe the answer is buy more and throw them away before
the true cost of ownership hits the wallet. You may surprised, some of the fan
boys/girls may actually want to hear the answers to the above questions (:
Tony MacDonald
May 24, 2019 at 9:17 pm
Well Look at the folks at Tesloop. They have cars with well over 300K miles on them and just published a video about the true cost of ownership. (which is way way way cheaper than any other car sold) The warranty is 8 yr/100,000 mi power-train and battery. 4yr/50k for general stuff. But there are only 11 moving parts in the power-train so yeah I’m not seeing too much to worry about hear.
There you go, I gave them a way to answer their questions.

The thing is that the Models X and S are very expensive and yet they have been around for 7 years without any refresh to the styling and interior. People are holding back with so many attractive option coming online. One simple thing…a car over $100,000 does not have wireless charging or three cup holders in the second row. Even if you pay extra $6,000 for the captain chairs on the Model X, it odes not even have an armrest. Everything is very dated.

This is the problem with publicly traded companies, short sighted goals. When you’re constantly worried about the next quarter and then the next it becomes a constant scramble. It makes it very easy to sink the stock of a company like Tesla which, as everyone knows, has a extremely long term outlook. They lost money Q1 , But year over year results were way up for sales. Everybody knows the first quarter is a tough slog, most of North America is under snow and this year we had an intense deep freeze, not to mention it follows the holiday season which typically sees people cash strapped.
If they do just one thing…. Take Maxwell’s dry tech battery solution and apply that to their batteries, they will be able to sell a compelling model 3 at $30,000 dollars USD. Lower the battery cost significantly and suddenly their cars will hit the sweet spot for consumers. If anyone was paying attention on the Autonomy Investment day, Elon mentioned we should have a Battery Investment day, meaning they have technologies in development that would be equal to the autonomy technologies. That’s a potential game changer. The Maxwell aquisition is HUGE!! And completely ignored by the analysts and the market, sad really.
I have a good point

Reilly Gardner
May 25, 2019 at 8:14 pm
False. I’m an environmentalist and heavily invested in renewables. I recognize Teslas to be sleek high performance cars but I hate them because they are on the polar end of an auto trend that I see as cars becoming more and more computerized and complex. I recognize that to some degree the complexity and engineering has to increase to yield higher performance, but do you really need a computer screen on the dashboard? My parents just leased a volt and when you backup it turns your music down and beeps at you because it thinks your going to hit shit close to the car…..shoot me…..shit is so annoying. Tesla is the glorified version of this and all the computers will break faster than a physical button/dial…. I just don’t trust the cars to last more than 5 years. And even if I was ballin out and money wasn’t an object I would opt for 100 other cars before a Tesla. M4, R8, S5, hell id take my 06 4runner over a tesla any day….
MrApan19
May 26, 2019 at 1:53 am
Reilly Gardner — your long response proves the point of the author….that the haters have never driven a Tesla. You just made multiple arguments including being an environmentalist, investing in renewables and having relatives that own a Chevy Volt (which btw is not the same just because both cars are EV) as your reasons to hate the Tesla. And no need to reply that you have driven one because you would have originally said it in your long diatribe of why you hate the Tesla.
Ironically, I’ve test driven the P100d, but it wasn’t my bag of tea because I realized that I wanted my sports car to make some noise instead of silently whooshing up the highway. Still one hell of a car though…
Reilly Gardner
May 26, 2019 at 2:19 am
+MrApan19 haha you missed my point tho. I realize if I drove one I would like the experience. That is not relevant to the reasons why I dislike the car. My point was that I have reasons to dislike the “idea” of the car other than its automotive performance capacity
MrApan19
May 26, 2019 at 3:24 am
Reilly Gardner — haha your point is noted and I can appreciate your idealistic hatred of the non-automotive performance stuff. But perhaps you should temp yourself with a test drive anyways with the potential to fall down that slippery slope….you might like it ?. Although judging from the preferred alternate cars you listed, you might not be tempted after the fact like me. I ended up with an ICE vehicle that I’ll just say gets 8-10mpg on a good day.

We are so lucky to live in a free country, where we can build up any fake news and no risk a jail term. But these phony experts should be ashamed of themselves. The only real problem Tesla has, is to meet the high demand for those magnificent cars, a good 7 years ahead of the nearest competitor. Aside from that Elon Musk is driving crazy the entire Auto industry,, outselling them all in the luxury segment, as well as the oil industry, the dealer association among others, those are the Tesla haters. Ask any Tesla owner, old or new, and they all will tell you of a fantastic driving.experience. They are so loyal that no other manufacturer will ever be able to sell them a new car..

“Someone tragically dying in an incident involving autopilot”. So we’re just going to ignore the 30,000 people that die tragically every year from… not… autopilot? It’s sad but true that no matter how safe autopilot gets it will (at least for the short term) be held to a standard that is many orders of magnitude higher than ape-piloted cars. Have you seen these people with their road rage and smart phones? The faster we can get the human out of the equation the better.

LOOK, we the world burns up 95 million BARRELS, yes barrels of oil, every DAY. Yes, every day. At that rate of burn, the world only has approximately 40 to 50 years of sufficient supply. That is unsustainable, and foolish. The transition to renewables has to happen. Either on smart terms where we conserve oil for many generations or we use it up creating massive problems for our grandkids. Think about it.

maybe you should think about sustainability of defacing planet earth crust to mine lithium.

The guy is delusional – TSLA is circling the drain, and Musk is the reason. His craziness, his lies, his fraud, and now his ‘leaked emails’ replacing the cons on his Twitter feed all add up to huge issues for a company that should never have invited him in.
When a $35billion (and falling) company has people who need to bring their own toilet paper to work, there’s a huge issue in corporate governance.

If you ask me, Bloomberg’s Craig Trudell is one of the bears piling on, focusing on small bad points instead of looking at the big picture.
