Pretty sure it was called something like “Should I buy TSLA?” or (very) similar. Yet I can’t find it through the forum search.
I remember a few post snippets and I’m pretty sure it’s not my memory failing me in search terms. And we still have the threads about ARK and BTC talking about investing in single securities. Of which particularly the Bitcoin one arguably could get (way) more controversial at times, so can’t be related to moderation. I honestly didn’t remember anything that would have given moderation reason to delete it (again, particularly considering the Bitcoin one still stands).
One user revived that thread, without any input of their own, but simply because the price was down, and as I suspected just to spread some FUD. So I locked it. @San_Francisco that you go to such lengths to create another thread to ask where the other thread has gone, tells me all I need to know about your intentions.
So? Same thing as happened the Bitcoin thread. Multiple times. Simply because the price was up. Heck, seems it even was the same user doing it. Without the thread getting locked, let alone unlisted (hidden), so for for practical purposes as good as deleted.
Instead of creating a new thread to ask the community your question, you’re starting some witch hunt. I created that topic and my questions have been long answered, and the topic was dead for a long time, so I closed it. I bet you were searching for the thread to continue the TSLAQ circlejerk.
Bojack, even as probably the biggest tsla investor on the forum and even with the stock far from its all-time high, and even as a moderator, please stay neutral and do not decide what we can or cannot discuss. Shares go up and down and so do emotions. If you cannot tolerate a thread about TSLA then your position is probably too big. My 2 cents
So first it was about a moderator‘s mere suspicion of FUD that might possibly be spread.
Now it’s about a user’s question „having been answered“?
Threads don’t get closed merely for being answered here. Because, correct me if I’m wrong, I fail to see how a user would even be able to close his own thread for being answered (let alone hide it - you not only closed it, you hid it. ). I certainly can’t see a way of closing this one.
Don’t you have more important things in life than some petty arguments? Such a waste of time. You know, if a user feels like they’re not happy with their forum contributions, they may request to have all their posts deleted, and a few have done so in the past. Then it’s not only hidden, it’s gone. My point about the witch hunt stands. I closed and delisted an old thread and you’re making a scene out of it. Get a life…
@San_Francisco I wanted to take a moment to express my support for your contributions to our community. 100% agree with the points you have made in this thread
@Bojack kindly suggest that you consider stepping down from administrator. Your comments in this thread have been quite embarrassing
Holding a minor position in Tesla shares and getting a bit concerned as both their competition is stepping up (in terms of quality and price). At the same time, the sign that Tesla decided to ax 10% of their workforce indicates they themselves were less optimistic about their future than before. Hence, I wondered if I should close my position before they go bust? Or would you even recommend me a short position?
do you have a recent '24 guidance?
The '23 actuals show me that they grow top-line but struggle to grow bottom-line. So there seems to be quite a bit of margin/cost pressure. If they can’t get this solved fast - and considering the fact that BYD can produce cars at lower cost & higher margin - things may go difficult fast.
The key question is what happens in '24. Them cuttinig 10% indicates they see a trend reversal. This could either be just platoeing where they are (aka they stay at roughly these revenue and profitabiltiy levels and the share comes down to a 10-15 PE aka mins 50%)… or it could be worse if they realize that they can’t compete at the cost side of the dimension.
Understanding the difference of cost structure and the less complexity of electric cars vs. combustion cars, Tesla just scratched the surface. The market for electric cars will exponetial grow in the next years. They are getting cheaper (battery costs lower every year), the service maintenance costs are way lower compare to other big brands - the mostly people love their cars. Who will eat how’s lunch in the future is not clear, but so far Tesla has the advantage to be fist and is investing the earned money in the future grow. They are building production lines in most of the continents and those cars will get cheaper every year. So I would still be long-trem bullish for their future.
