...and? You're trying to compare them to Tesla, which had 500k reservations for the Model 3 (granted, at $1,000). And none of it matters if they never produce the damn thing. They don't even have a working prototype yet, right?
I'm not saying that they won't be successful, but I think people are getting excited about the Tesla comparison when there's literally nothing to go off of other than a pretty picture. [Reply]

I've had etrade forever, but I'm cooling on them a bit. They don't automatically put your cash into a money market, which costs me money every day. Schwab doesn't automatically do it, but they make it easy, and Fidelity will automatically do it. It's a minor point, but they're mostly the same so it's a difference maker if it helps on the return a little bit. [Reply]

Winning.
I sold at 77 and regretted it at the time, but it was exactly the right time. Once I saw that the insiders were selling I assumed it would dump. I'm trying to decide where the bottom is and will get back into that one at some point. [Reply]

Everything Musk does is carefully crafted for his oddball image. Covid turned out great for Tesla, as it slowed/stopped Ford's long anticipated grand entry into electric vehicles. Ford's new electric vehicles will be years ahead of the overpriced trash Tesla is peddling. But, Tesla has a $$$ cult following, and Musk can do no wrong. Giant pyramid scheme on the part of major stockholders, if you ask me. Yes, I think Tesla will fail, too. [Reply]
