Stock Market Thread
anyone considered Tesla stock? They're not profitable yet... it just seems they have their act together more than any other elec car manufacturer and the pre-orders on model S at least shows there's some demand. (Not quite as much demand as GM hoped for on the Volt though... :oops: )

*edit* someone please block all my computers from looking at AAPL :vomit: :oops:

I have no idea, and I'm too chicken to bet against them. The only "news" I saw is that they're so flush with cash, they're considering offering dividends again (and with Steve out of the way, they probably can!)

I think Tesla's stock will take a hit with the bricking problem but that may create an opportunity to get the stock for cheap and reap the rewards. It remains to be seen whether their management team can handle a potential crisis like this one though. So far they haven't done a good job of responding to the situation.

I was under the impression that storm had already blown over. Any electric car would suffer the same fate. You leave it parked for 3 months and yeah, it's going to be DEAD dead.

*edit* advice ignored, bought some

probably ripe for a big pullback but id wait for confirmation first

Down 15% in day two.

It'll probably trickle down a couple bucks over the next couple weeks before leveling off.

I gotta think it'll follow the same path as MC.
