Out of curiosity, I looked up Tesla's market cap on the day this thread was created. $11 billion.

Glad you found it useful!

I recommend the film 'Palm Springs' (2020, Hulu). But go in KNOWING NOTHING ABOUT IT. Not a trailer, not a description, nothing. All you need to know is it's not for kids. It makes the film so much more fun to have no spoilers.

Lots of stuff on state of COVID19 here: https://www.lesswrong.com/posts/i6doyTk6kHkGyKybq/covid-1-7-the-fire-of-a-thousand-suns

Musk also said the stock was too high years ago. I don' think it's a timing signal for shorting.

"Elon Musk is now the richest person in the world, passing Jeff Bezos" ("net worth of more than $185 billion") What if you could've sent that headline back in time to a couple years ago?

Also at Volaris: h/t @pearnick

I think the confusion was that he thought the interview would be used just internally at Harris but it was available publicly for a while.

The book 'Stumbling on Happiness' by Gilbert was a huge influence on my life when I read it. It was long ago, but the main points have always stuck with me. Recommended.

May 2021 be much better than 2020!

"More than 186,000 Russians have died due to coronavirus, three times more than previously reported" ("Russia said on Monday that its coronavirus death toll was more than three times higher than it had previously reported") https://www.theguardian.com/world/2020/dec/28/russia-admits-to-world-third-worst-covid-19-death-toll-underreported

I watched Greyhound too. This is also basically an alternative history movie where all the German U-Boot commander collectively loose their mind. Tom Lasso is surprisingly good. Not a premise that interested me at all, but I heard enough good things about it from people who's taste I trust that I check it out, and both my wife and I really enjoyed it.

Maybe. Totally not what I was talking about. An argument could certainly be made that EVs and self-driving cars will have different economics for a few reasons that I can think off the top of my head, but not really my intent to discuss this right now.

I own the Canadian version, so not 100% sure, but what I've heard from Americans who have owned OTC stuff in the past is that it may take a while to show up in your account, and you may even have to contact your broker to make sure it happens, but you have a right to it and it should be there eventually.

To quote your original response. In regards to valuation and comparing car sales to car sales . What is the rest of the picture? It's obvious, isn't it? Looking at static number of cars sold and market caps and comparing companies that are mature to one that sold a number of cars that rounds to zero 10 years ago is missing growth. Now of course all the people who can't read what I actually wrote will think I'm justifying Tesla's valuation, and I'm not, but I guess that's unavoidable ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

New acquisition in Quebec by an Harris BU: Lateral Innovations Inc.

Hard to say, other software/tech stocks are down today, so some of that is volatility.

I think you know very well that putting these numbers next to each other is painting the picture that I was talking about. The rest of the context you provided here wasn't in that post, and that's what I was commenting on.

Yeah, I bought more over time up to the mid-300s, then just held. It is indeed difficult. Only thing harder is buying back something you sold much lower.
