    doesn’t it depend (sadly) on what side that installed whomever into the organizations leadership?

    maybe, but weren't most cdc leaders in place when trump was first elected? and then he tired of them after covid entered the picture.

    Looking over last year:
    upload_2025-3-3_0-20-22.png

    I knew Musk had gotten distracted so I liquidated all of my TSLA holdings. Anything over $219.00 will be a fine price to "short sell" TSLA. I still have to wait for the "7 day hold" to count down. My current plan:
    • March 7, 2025 -- Short Sell ~$219/share
    • April 23, 2025 -- Buy to cover Short Sell seven weeks from now, ~$110/share
    With luck, I'll double my investment and be done with it.

    Depends on which vehicle. Data is misleading. It's like lies by omission.

    .... must keep that in mind - contemplating things like what i did to tick my wife off recently, or the reliability of my Neighbor's cars still under warranty, or my daughter's influence on her four kids, or the the 5% of the Muslim nation that wants to destroy all us infidels. Damn that musk!

    Reminds me of the old joke:

    A guy walks into a psychiatrist office and says “my brother thinks he’s a chicken, what should I do?”
    The doctor says “why don’t you just turn him in and get him some help?”
    He replies “I would but I need the eggs”

    I really like my 2019 Tesla Model 3 and the latest Full Self Driving drives me around town, hands free, just touching the navigation screen to let it know where I want to go. Or its speech recognition can translate to car.

    I've never short-sold stock before so the experiment begins:

    I'll clear this a day or so after the 2025 Q1 financials.

    Ideally when the run up went beyond $400 a share, wouldn't that have been the ideal time to get into the short game? The stock - when it's in the 200s seems to be taking a bigger risk.

    I wouldn't bet on Tesla stock going up.

    Sorry but after seeing such unrelated videos ...... odds are, it would be a waste of time to watch another & again being likely about the history of the Prius &/or Toyota.
    That's why the graph showing trends of stocks represent that even inflation would mean the value will be headed back up.
    Doesn't matter here, as we got out at $350/share .... probability being that it would Trend back down shortly thereafter, and that was a correct call.
    Probably used up all my luck for this millennium
