They could announce an iTesla and I'd still be totally disinterested at these price levels. Reminds me of the irrational dot.coms from a few years back. What P/E ratio??? Full disclosure....I purchased a small stake in TSLA when it was at 22...exited at 34 (right before the "liftoff ), so y'all can thank me for the skyrocket ride up

ps: That "gamble" was totally out of character for my typical investment strategy...it was just a whim (WAG), and I was just damn lucky...good luck to all!!!

That guy... he's just a naysayer.

Musk is one hell of promoter ....

Seems to me he wants a buy-out.

I expect that he knows this rodeo ride will end soon. ...time let some clowns take the bull. Physics/reality can be a beotch.

Good thing people will emotionally buy HopeTM ...if properly packaged in enthusiasm.

+14% and another 2% after hours. That's what I'm talking' about! I'm not one to get greedy... might have to get out.

A cohort that is into motors worked very hard to land a job there. It's his dream job but what do you think the chances are they will be around in 5 years?

He says there is no employee discount for a car.

I demo drove a Tesla S (P85) on Friday with three other people in the car. Damn thing is a rocket and very comfortable. Extraordinary cargo capacity also.

It changed my opinion about electric cars.

The Tesla reps also said no employee discount.

If I still had my initial TSLA stocks, I could have sold them today and bought most of a new Model S Watching TSLA actually turns my stomach now.

TSLA - How high will it go?

I'm sure not complaining.

Yes, but only YOUR tax money. They used YOUR tax money to bribe the IRS to find a way to sequester YOUR tax money away from the general fund, so that they could use YOUR tax money to bribe the public to buy their product. Ingenious people they are.

Heck, they are using YOUR tax money (and only yours) to give away cars for free in China! They are Red sympathizers!
