  • short better wear "pamper" to bed tonight...

    also: don't GO OUT TO BAR...

    ladies overhear you say "you short" ...tell you "get lost"
    one lady (ugly) say: if YOU GOT LOT OF MONEY TO GIVE ME... I "think about it."

    too bad: ladies overhear you say YOU REAL "LONG"... LADIES SAY: "GIVE FREEBIE TO MANY WHO "LONG!"
    (some lady "even PAY YOU" ...IF YOU "REAL GENUINE LONG!"

    I wish you "much luck" with other stock gain... SO, YOU "CAN LOSE HERE" drive up Tesla even more...than normal up...(you help make "extra" bonus gain for those "long" Tesla...)

    think... little last minute dips... TO BOTTOM FISH... remaining "shorts" GET THEM LOCKED IN for tomorrow "shearing" (like sheep)...

    If Big Oil wants to stop TSLA.....

    look into "light sweet crude" which is mostly used as the basis for "refining" to gasoline...

    also our wells produce "something more like for home heating oil"

    also "existing refineries" are probably set up for "light sweet crude to gasoline"

    SO... I would look into "all that" before you think you can "just stop being dependent" on the mid-east supplies...

    why do you think BUSH AND COMPANY HAD US OVER IN THE MID-EAST... it was to BE THERE TO CONTROL the mid-east LIGHT-SWEET-CRUDE OIL SUPPLIES...(besides supporting their defense contractor buddies, etc.)

    think they didn't know about frakking and ND and all that... THEY DID...

    (you'll have to check all this out... as it's been a few years since I been in to speculating in oil price futures... but most of this is what I vaguely remember...)

    might be some industry stuff on the web about this ...or on wikipedia for starters...

    but A LOT MORE THAN YOU WOULD THINK ...goes into the price of oil (opec has it's hands full with the "futures mkts" alone...real complex issue...)

    here's a good idea... maybe for a "Goldman Sachs" ...create a "new DERIVATIVE" on the "Tesla Waiting List"...

    like traders could be "speculating" on the value of "various wait-list positions" (you could sell your "slot")

    I give these "great ideas" out for free, mostly... too much work for me to get involved in this kind of thing very much myself... I don't need that kind of money...

    then...YOU SHOULD WONDER "WHY THEY ARE NOT!"

    I wouldn't be expecting the "price of gas" to go down significantly ANYTIME SOON....

    in fact: YOU MAY SEE "$10. a gallon...if the MID-EAST BLOWS UP...and there are good odds on something exploding over there...

    and THERE ARE NOT A LOT OF ELEC CARS ON THE ROAD.... JUST YET!!!

    ...........AND IF THE MID-EAST GOES... YOU'LL WISH YOU "HAD BEEN" ON THE TESLA WAITING LIST...

    I'm going to have to be off these boards for a bit... going to DC for the weekend... promised to house-sit...

    so, I got to get ready, and do a whole bunch of stuff... pack my car... like to have anything I might need with me... and can't carry all that on train...

    but I will be back (shorts are probably sorry to hear that)...

    regards...my best to "longs"...

    THEY ARE "PUTTING THEIR MONEY WHERE THERE MOUTH IS"...have to do that TO SHOW "mostly fencesitters" THEY ARE "VERY CONFIDENT" in what they are doing and making...

    like that...

    Tesla batteries

    by stockholderrevolt 20 hours ago
    flashrob flashrob 17 hours ago Flag

    stagecoaches DIDN'T NEED BATTERIES...

    also, "everything IN IT'S TIME"... AND THIS IS THE TIME FOR THE "ELEC CAR TO REPLACE" THE GAS-GUZZLER... both for "our breathing - especially in places like downtown LA... and because MANY ELEC THINGS need "better and better" batteries...cellphones, tablets, portable tools, etc. (most of the really hi-tech elec stuff will be from smaller entrepreneurs... and this time... it won't be able to be stopped by "vested interest" who lose significantly, because of this tech... you think windmills, and solar... YOU AINT' SEEN NOTHING YET...

    "vinyl" GOT REPLACED BY "MUCH BETTER CD/DVD" tech...

    now IT'S TIME FOR "ELEC CARS" ...except maybe in Mexico and the Mid-East...even I would stick with a "gas-guzzler" ....there.

  • all not lost...

    extra inventory and years of investment "stuck in pipeline"... here my suggestion...

    export many "gas-guzzler" TO "MEXICO AND MID-EAST"

    a. Mexico OIL RICH... not likely a good place for "elec car" anytime soon... too much drug-cartel problem, can't safely/dependably CHARGE CAR...(even at home... drug-cartel guys do too many break-in...even at home...)

    b. Mid-East OIL RICH... not good place for "elec chg" station... (specially in lots of desert and mountains"...also electric "very undependable" there ... much "tribal infighting and sabotage"...much better off WITH GAS CAR... also "gas very cheap there" like Iraq, etc. LOTS OF SUPPLY (now American military withdrawn...)

    c. so BIG BENEFIT TO "OIL RICH" AREAS... should take care of your "excess inventory" of gas-guzzler...also help "big oil" somewhat too...

    you "catch my drift" Ford, Gm...the rest too of mostly mfr "gas guzzler..." etc....

    new batt tech just announced...

    by flashrob 19 hours ago
    flashrob flashrob 18 hours ago Flag

    on potential new cheap fast chg battery... I was referring to in this thread...

    don't forget NOT SO MUCH BENEFIT TO BIG "GAS GUZZLER MFR"....they have "much lead time" and "PRODUCTION PLANS" for STILL much gas-guzzler...

    unlike TESLA who can INCORPORATE this type of new "batt tech" advance...VERY RAPIDLY...

    other big mfrs... HAVE MUCH CAPITAL TIED UP IN "GAS CARS" ...like BIG FREIGHT TRAIN all loaded...TAKE THEM TOO MUCH TIME to "dump HUGE LEADTIME" investment in gas-guzzlers...

    TESLA ...if this tech work, or something else... CAN INCORPORATE NEW BATT TECH "ALL MODELS" VERY QUICKLY...

    so, JUST ANOTHER "BIG ADVANTAGE" TO TESLA... and against "big dinosaur gas-guzzler" mfrs...

    TESLA can use this tech ALMOST IMMEDIATELY to MAKE "30K or less vehicle" VERY RAPIDLY...

    competitors HAVE BIG INVENTORY AND PRODUCTION ISSUE CHANGES TO DEAL WITH...

    TESLA ...just quickly ADD ...low-price veh... TO MID-SIZED LUXURY CARS ...

    big mfr ALREADY NOT STARTED ON COMPETITION FOR "luxury bmw" type vehicle.... LEAD TIME TO GET A "NEW MODEL" from drawing board to showroom (takes YEARS)

    SO: TESLA win WITH WHAT THEY ALREADY MAKE

    ...AND MAKE MORE: if batt-tech MAKE "LOW PRICED" MODEL added to production...THEY CAN DO MUCH QUICKER ON THIS THAN "BIG MFR"... who also have BIG PROBLEM because MANY GAS-GUZZLER "in their pipeline"

    as KOREAN SAY: "what to do," WHAT TO DO!' (Korean say this WHEN IN "PANIC!' AND DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO...

  • see latest news article on tsla yahoo ticker...

    the reason I am on these stock boards...because "I am a futurist" that's a person who has "very good insight/intuition" into WINNERS and "losers" too... once you can do that... making money on the mkts is easy "long or short" as long as they don't sit "dead in the water" for too long...

    no vested interest or positions in Tesla... right now... it would actually be "to my advantage" if Tesla hadn't run up so quickly... I wasn't paying attention to the mkts... because - "I can make more than enough money ANYTIME... that is ...as long as the whole financial system doesn't collapse, etc. (cept wkend, forex closed then, too)

    since I predict TESLA will go up 20-30x in the next couple years... I'm supporting it... no particular reason THEN IT CAME UP ON MY RADAR... I should have paid attention when I got the feeling a few months ago... TO LOAD UP... I didn't ...so I could have made "mucho bucks" recently... but then I get kind of a "heads-up" frequently...so if I don't make money on some opportunity "today" ...there will be another one in a few days/weeks... and I'll hit on that...
    (this is not insider stuff... I know more then them... )
    right now, the "intensity" of daytrading (which is highly stressful) is too emotionally charged for me... so I have to "let it go" ...my health is more important than money...

    can always make money... but if your health starts acting up... you will FOCUS on that and not money... controlling my health is far more difficult then anything I have ever had to deal with...

    so writing on these boards.... I'm just "basically" giving my take...(no reason to screw people... don't "pump/dump" stocks, don't NEED TO...JUST GIVE HONEST OPINION..."rarely wrong!"

    it's something to do... actually I should be doing something else... but "writing on boards" LOOKS LIKE A VALID excuse not to do something that I probably should be... like get car washed... but raining here today...

    also, forgot to mention... I LIKE "IBM" ... too, one of favorite big multinationals...

  • flashrob flashrob 20 hours ago Flag

    I'm A "high frequency daytrader" STUPID... I frequently make "thousands" (a day) ... sometimes I sometimes have "thousands" of options... BOTH "LONG AND SHORT"...

    sample: in one month 30k net on 150 trades... that was only PART TIME... because I had other "more important stuff to do" ...could only spend about an hour or two trading on most days in that month...(was careless on a few trades... lost 29k on one... but that's included in my gain for that month...

    the "mkt" is like AN ATM machine to me... LOTS A DAYS I JUST WATCH TV instead of trading....

    I need money for somethin' I JUST "BEAT" THE MKT...

    IT'S LIKE THAT "STUPID"...AND I'M telling you TESLA is one of the best "conservative" investments I've seen in years... I hit bit on Apple too, before that gold and silver...

    like the Tesla options too... jan15 calls...

    other picks: HD, LOWES, NETFLIX... many others

    I'm "also a fururist" THIS STUFF IS "EASY FOR ME" and TESLA is a "nor brainer BIG WINNER...

    daily volatilities, yeah I take advantage of them MANY TIMES ON SHORT... even on TESLA... but ACCUMULATE TESLA.... and it's the NEXT APPLE... that's a bit week, and hard to play...

    normally I won't mention actual personal stuff like trades and money... BUT YOU SHORTS ARE JUST TOO STUPID AND ANNOYING... and I'm only telling you a little of when I'm just lightly playing around with stuff... I trade FOREX, too....

    so You THINK you may know more about me and the mkts... YOU DON'T "DUMDUM!"

  • overall effect on Tesla... "NOTHING MORE" then overall mkt jitters... just cyclical for today or next day or two, etc.

    good day for shorts TO GET OUT... not much for you... but since more money is in Tesla... a bit more than average usually gets pulled out of these "hi-flyers"...BUT WON'T LAST...

    A DAY OR TWO when DOW START CLIMBING AGAIN... AND BACK "UP WE GO..."

    WHY ISN'T THIS STOCK UP 15% TODAY

    by voyceofreazon May 20, 2013 4:02 PM
    flashrob flashrob May 20, 2013 5:22 PM Flag

    it's like building a new "SKYSCRAPER" ....ONCE THE BASIC FRAME IS IN PLACE... then most of your work is starting from the bottom and mostly working the "lower floors" ...but I think TESLA will now such steadily GAIN more slowly... BUT IT'S GONNA BE A "REAL BIG SKYSCRAPER" with PREMIUM REVS, etc.

    200-300 easily in a year or so... and then splits and THEN UP STILL MORE...

    one of the best conservative LONG TERM investments...

    ACCUMULATE...ACCUMULATE...ACCUMULATE

    this IS THE FUTURE... 5-10 years BETTER THAN 50% OF THE CARS ON AMERICAN ROADS WILL BE TESLA...

    honda has a new all electric for about 37k est. val...BUT PROBLEM IS RANGE IS ONLY 78 miles or so per day AND THAT'S ONE OF THE TOP LIKELY COMPETITORS...

    I THINK TESLA will be MUCH MORE POPULAR... especially with the "beamer and mb" crowds...

    have a beamer... but mostly save it for the weekend... PAY FOR IT WITH THE GAS MONEY YOU SAVE BY USING THE TESLA FOR COMMUTING... SAVE ABOUT 6000. PER YEAR...

    that crowd can afford a BMW and A TESLA....(even in an economic downturn...) got a beamer and corvette in garage... pretty soon a beamer and a TESLA...
