Tesla Inc (TSLA) Options

Yes, I have relatively inexpensive EVs that are reliable, have the ranges I need, were not very expensive relative to other offerings, do the jobs I need them for, and have dealerships nearby for servicing. And, incredibly, I have no idea what the politics of the people that make my cars are. That is kind of nice - no sig heils, no foreigner interfering with our constitutional norms.

Still, nothing beats the exploding heads every time they show my Trumpy and Elon Musk in white house. Luv it

Protesters target Tesla showrooms over Elon Musk’s cost-cutting

Organisers cited 37 protests across the country as part of an effort co-ordinated through the social media hashtags #TeslaTakedown and #TeslaTakover. https://www.ft.com/content/69129b95-d8f9-4dc9-87fb-5d5a7892d320 $TSLA

• $TSLA - After bottoming at 325 it closed the week above the 20 week MA with a bullish Doji star candle. The weekly low was potentially an intermediate term low. Next week it will have to close the week above 363 with a green candle to confirm a bullish reversal.

No, the Chevy Blazer EV SS does not have full self-driving, but it does have a semi-autonomous driving feature called Super Cruise. Super Cruise is a hands-free driver assistance system that allows the driver to take their hands off the wheel while driving on compatible roads. ——Chevy Blazer was the pace car for the Daytona 500, but it doesn’t have FSD which I think is a big advantage for buying a Tesla!!!

$TSLA Update – Perfect Bounce, $420 Target in Sight
By: Peter DiCarlo | February 16, 2025

• $TSLA bounced off market bias perfectly last week at $324, and I’m adding it to the trading bots this week since a lot of people are watching this setup.

Not loving the monthly chart just yet, but…
If price pushes back to $420 by month-end, the monthly BX stays bright green
Setup still looks very strong

Watching for follow-through—this could be a big move.

Just wondering…. Do you think Elon Musk will use Trusted Computing and Wave Systems Corp. to secure Grok? I mean, he is using the TPM (Trusted Platform Module) in Teslas!!! And Wave is interoperable!!

Lots of reasons for YOU not to buy one.

NOT A GOOD IDEA TO ALIGN WITH THE FAR RIGHT (THE 3RD REICH) !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!WATCH THE SLAM DOWN TO 150 BUCKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

La TSLA Fan, I am by no means an expert as the TPM can get pretty technical, but I have followed the Trusted Computing space for quite some time!! The TPM celebrated its 25th anniversary this year, and the Trusted Computing Group which is made up of 100+ companies backing this technology and many people have never heard of it!! It is REALLY COOL!! Wave Systems Corp, which was bought out by ESW Holdings is the owner now, but it would be nice to see the old shareholder get a piece of the pie!! Steven K Sprague the old Wave CEO still owns 200k+ shares!! Our government, Tesla and so many organizations could benefit from this technology, and that’s why I’m surprised it’s not on Bloomberg or CNBC!! But then again the Crowdstrike’s, Palo Alto’s and Okta’s could be put out of business if we all knew about this technogy!! It’s not right that the ad dollars of these companies are keeping America and the world from knowing how much safer our data and people could be!! Maybe Fox will do some segments on it!! Aren’t they supposed to report the news!!! The 25 th anniversary of the TPM and what it does is BIG NEWS!!! Trump and Elon should be all over this as it saves a lot of money, and could secure our whole cyber world!!!

Good post. I use my trucks like trucks: haul things, carry loads in the bed. The sloping bed of the Tesla is a problem. From what I have read from owners who tried to tow or who experienced the typical trauma trucks are subjected to, they have experienced failures, even catastrophic failures. If you are using the cybertruck as a passenger vehicle then I guess it is OK. Our bolt is pretty great - it only has a 260 mile range during warm weather, but that is enough for us. If you live in the midwest or southwest where you have to drive long distances regularly then I could see that a Tesla or VW or Hyundai or newer GM with faster recharging rates would be a better choice than our 2018 Bolt. And Tesla's charging network would be attractive then if you are looking at a Tesla or GM EV - but competitive networks are quickly lessening that advantage.

WHY NOT? Do you think Trump would ever approve a non-competitive deal?

mdb1: I think the Cybertruck is probably more suited than the F-150.

chk: well said.

GENZ2: You sound like an expert in securing information stored in a Tesla. I have not given much thought to it, always thinking that my info would be secure because nobody unauthorized ever has access to my car for long =enough to do any harm. However, with the possible onset of FSD and robotaxi, things may change.

If you have thought about starting a business developing and selling a software/hardware package that could be easily installed on Models 3 and Y, I may be a buyer.

In addition to my last post and related to post #91815 if readers are interested in Trusted Platform Modules since they are in Teslas and I believe offer a competitive advantage they should search on Google, ‘what does a TPM do’ if they want to know about a technology that is AKA Trusted Computing!!

https://www.securetechalliance.org/a-safe-for-sensitive-data-in-the-car-volkswagen-relies-on-tpm-from-infineon/

Thanks TSLA fan. Volkswagen is the other car company that I am aware of that uses the Trusted Platform Module, but they seem to be tied to Infineon which is a German company. If Tesla used other brands of TPMs they could keep their costs lower than Volkswagen potentially and pass the savings along to the buyer, but generally TPMs aren’t very expensive!! Or it just wouldn’t force Tesla to have to buy from a particular TPM manufacturer! I think more options is good!! Wave Systems Corp. could enable them and manage them and with Wave’s 2FA and entering a PIN before you ride off in your Tesla that would be another level of security for the owner!! Wave is interoperable amongst all the TPMs, and I believe Volkswagen and Tesla have a competitive advantage over the other car companies as using this hardware security rather than software only security that can be hacked!! If anything, Tesla and the government should have their TPMs in computers activated and using Wave software so that they only allow known devices on their networks!! Hope this helps!!

Cybertruck an engineering disaster? I have not see any proof of that at all. I have a friend who has one, he loves that thing. Yes, service is indeed a thing. Too few places to take your Tesla for now. But then... I have not had any real problems yet after 2 years. I do applaud the fact that GM has begun making some new models. I hope they figure it out. Competition is a good thing.
Robots will take over. Yes, I do believe that TSLA will indeed make the first fully human like robot for general use. BUt time will tell.
I am truly glad you like your GM's. That is the point. They suited you better than another brand of car. I know two people who have Bolts and they are looking to bail from them, but mostly because they do not find they suit their needs as much as they thought. Both are looking at VW and Tesla. I let them drive mine, including FSD. I have a feeling they will both go with Tesla. But... their choice.

What nonsense. Everyone is holding off for the new MY. But hey, knock yer self out on that notion.

Ah yes, the gloom and doom continues around TSLA. MSM is painting Elon as the second coming of Hitler. Healines proclaim a massive drop in MY sales...... Those that actually bother to step away from the massive FUD attempt realize that all this is just junk. MY sales are set to explode shortly. The new MY is really good and a nice step up. Now... back to the regularly scheduled garbage headlines about everything ELON and TSLA.

lol. We’ll know when it happens.

It’s been days with no Tesla crash reports?

I had a strong feeling that TSLA would NOT be allowed to rise on Friday. Given the momentum from Thursday and FrIday, an increase was in the cards. SO WHY do I say that TSLA would not be ALLOWED to rise? Surely the shorts cannot have access to THAT many shares? Let me try to explain.

What I do every morning is to review the news storied on YAHOO under TSLA. On Friday, the news section was headed by this story from BRIAN SOZZI: https://finance.yahoo.com/news/tesla-stock-finds-support-for-now-150545581.html. For those of you who are unconvinced, let me just say that BRIAN SOZZI is the biggest bear on TSLA ever. I have NO idea if he is a SHORT or not, although his actions and bi=odyssey language are a dead giveaway (at least to me).

Let's review BRIAN's writeup in detail,

First the headline. The headline says "Tesla stock finds support, for now". The 'for now" screams at you: Yes, but NO LONGER.

"The drop is with good reason from a fundamental perspective." Brian reveals his bearish (SHORT?) leanings in this part of his article, looking just at car sales and automotive income, NOT what is REALLY driving the rally in stock prices.

"At the same time, Australia's Electric Vehicle Council reported that Tesla's overall sales fell 33% year over year in January."

I credit Brian with showing me whereI can track Australia sales for Tesla. However, the kink led me to find a lot of things abbot Australia, one of which was the drop-off in January sees as reported by Brian. Unmentioned by Brian was probable reasons for the drop-off. You guessed it. Cancellation of EV tax credits (JUST LIKE GERMANY). Brian did not provide a link. Here it is: https://electricvehiclecouncil.com.au/#

" Read more: Tesla robot rival just raised $350 million"
Before Brian writes ANYTHING he does his research.. He finds every STORY that may bolster his case. He thinks that a $350 million company can compete with Tesla on humanoid robots!!

TO ME THAT PROVES HIS BEARISH LEANINGS!!

Elon will be ELON. Like it or not.

GENZ2: THAT, my friend, is a GREAT find!:

$TSLA - The recent continued downside can now be resolved in two ways:
By: Intelligent Investing | February 14, 2025

• $TSLA

The recent continued downside can now be resolved in two ways:

Either subdivide lower in final 4th and 5th waves to ideally $290+/-10.

Or the low is in at a standard c=a extension.

Directly above $372 (black dotted line) from current levels favors the latter. Below yesterday’s low favors the former.

Thus the end is near one way or another.

Excerpt:

Of course, the research also potentially paves the road for malicious use of the attack, though given the threat model of having prolonged physical access to the victim's car, this might be a less critical threat, Werling points out.

You have to have PROLONGED physical access to the car and almost need to be an engineer to pull this off!!! So why isn’t there a news story on Bloomberg tv about Tesla’s and their TPMs (Trusted Platform Modues) that are also in billions of computers how they make hacker’s jobs a lot tougher (or a blurb)?? And with Wave System Corp.’s software activating them we could live in a much safer world!! Steven K Sprague is the TPM guru that Elon and Tesla should be talking to!! 😄🇺🇸

The Tesla sales in all of Europe are systematically being completely destroyed ALL because of Musk.

What a way to run a company. Tesla sales in Germany down -66% last month.

Low Pole Reversal on 14-Feb-2050. No 2025! lol

This is positive. We shall see if it follows with a price breakout.

Not likely imo.

Totally agree. But TSLA (probably never would) could get into military vehicles and do much better job of protecting our troops.

If the $400m deal goes through I wonder if it will have legal consequences due to the obvious corruption. Probably not in the US under Trump, but maybe in the next administration, or in other countries that have laws against doing business with corrupt companies.

imo...don't count on that until they get the spontaneous combustion bugs worked out and the TSLA warp speed drive fixed~

I agree besides his car sales are Crashing! World Wide people are DUMPING teslas. I keep seeing bumper stickers on teslas that say "I bought this before I knew musk was a wacko".

By the way teslas are more dangerous than the 1970 Ford PINTOS !

The question is when and where may be that dividing line.

Hopefully we may be able to pinpoint it by seeing a clue in the charts.

We shall see. GLTY

Those are not looking good at this time. Likely negative impacts right now.

However, we may get a different situation after some time, as well.

Chart methodologies could help us with that change when it happens, may be.

We shall see. GLTY

Chart has not confirmed yet what path share price intends to follow at this time GLTY

We shall see if signal, one way or other, indicates it today.

I'm a neutral observer at this point. GLTY

How about $357?
