    Tip toeing back into trading

    After having stepped away from trading for the better part of the last 2 years, I've decided to get back into it with what I'll call the crumb strategy. Simple rules: stick to the half dozen stocks I'm very familiar with, wait for a drop to enter with significant size (30%+), then exit after...

    He Started Using PEDs At 13 y.o

    Not at all my vision of health and strength but...to each their own really. I find that generally American and Russian men and a growing number of women are obsessed with pumping iron and getting big. Perhaps it's a sign that the only control they have over anything is their appearance, and...

    Tesla 2024

    I think the share price is dropping because early shareholders are selling out of frustration with Elon Musk, his politics and some of his company decisions. This Electrek article sums up how many feel (including me) about the direction Musk has taken Tesla. https://flip.it/m13Etd

    About Tesla...

    I agree with that, although it will depend on the countries and states in the case of the US. There are 2 main drivers of this transition. 1. Evolving battery technology and 2. Delivery infrastructure. At some point, batteries will deliver 80% charge from under 10% in under 10 minutes and...

    Tesla 2024

    Take off your blinders for 2 seconds... Tesla has the highest margins in the volume auto manufacturing sector (taking Ferrari out of the running) AND Tesla Energy is ramping up ($403M gross profits, 24.6% gross margin) and may possibly surpass Tesla's auto manufacturing profits in the near...

    You're seriously obtuse... I said, Tesla's margins are among the highest in the automotive sector. How do you understand that to mean Tesla is solely an auto manufacturer... :banghead:

    Tesla 2024

    I've never referred to Tesla as solely an auto manufacturer and wouldn't expect its margins to match the 7 either, because theirs are primarily software. Tesla would need to establish a similar model for their FSD app, something I'm not at all convinced they can do. While share valuation is...

    Tesla 2024

    Ok, now you're moving the goal post again. So it's no longer about margin against competitors in the automotive sector but against the tech 7. I take that as an acknowledgement that Tesla isn't going bankrupt, or that EVs are done with, or that Ford and GM are about to overcome Tesla's sales...

    Rather than repeating my reply, I invite you to look at past exchanges on this specific point showing that Tesla's margins are among the highest in the automotive sector.

    European GDP laggars and superstars

    Yes, this is quite rational; you must be German! Work ethics is primarily tied to geography. The further away from the equator and afflicted with cold weather, the more active one needs to be in order to survive; build a solid house, cut wood to stay warm, grow vegetables at specific times...

    European GDP laggars and superstars

    Was that in a commune or communist country? In the US and many other countries, if you don't perform you lose your job. Only times I've seen non performing workers reassigned to a less demanding jobs (even sleep in your car) is in hardcore union labor environments.
