TSLA stock must not be doing that good to see Elon doing pumps again.

Sorry don't know how to embed

New carrot released.

Seems unlikely they have the regulatory backing to allow random people to use their Tesla's as robotaxis or for random people to use other rando's Tesla's as robotaxis. Best I could see is it getting released in a few choice markets and even that would be incredibly questionable.

Early prediction on the "unveil" being a presentation about how you can pay your Tesla off in 3 years of Robotaxi'ing but you just need to pressure your local lawmaker to allow it to happen.

crazy thing is he was doing that early prediction 4 years ago.

I realize he's always made these insane marketing claims. Like way beyond exaggeration, way past anything any marketer in their right mind would claim, and this is more of the same. There has to be some limit, will he ever face consequences? Last I checked, TSLA is on level 2 of driving automation and has never attempted to produce a taxi.

Maybe the robo taxi is a seperate vehicle entirely? I assumed it would be just the normal teslas.

That's been the claim since 2016 or 2018. They don't have very good self driving capability and have no ongoing public taxi trials I'm aware of.

probably not legal. i see tsla petering out in the next couple years but if he's smart he'll just make a few more announcements of announcements and cash out with each pump. enough people in the media sufficiently hate him now so the netflix takedown exposes probably drop within a year. just a question of whether they'll portray him as a total fraud from the start or evil drugs destroyed his genius mind.

he'll never fully lose his faithful following though. some see themselves in his weirdoness, others just need to believe in a god. he'll probably continue to form vaporware initiatives and raise billions on them well into the future. he's like someone who binked a couple big MTTs and now sells out pieces at 2.5x markup.

Robotaxi regulators say Tesla hasn’t contacted them about plans teased by Musk, Tesla hasn’t applied for permits it would need.

That either means 1) Tesla has no intent to let FSD pass Level 2 (because of the liability issue maybe?), or 2) they think autonomy is so far away that they aren't even thinking about talking to regulators at this point in time.

It means, if Elon's still fooling you at this point, shame on you.

laid off 10% of workforce

seems like the novelty is off these things a little, if just 1 or 2 US manufacturers could come out with anything remotely close in quality then a real dent in sales growth would occur

i see wayyyy more rivians around than 1-2 yrs ago

I saw my first cyber truck yesterday. It was leaving Rocky Mountain National Park. Looked like **** lmao.

Looks like the robotaxi pump didn't work this time. Maybe people are finally wizening up to the grift.

even if cybertruck was a hit, whats the point?

you cant sell very many of those a year, has no mass market appeal, not like the road is going to be filled with them

just a vanity project?

it served his purpose in the end . the stock more than doubled in those months and he got to do secondaries and sell stock out of his holdings.

6/13/23 TSLA $258.71 ---> $161.48 (-37.6%)

6/13/23 BTC $25,918.73 ---> $63,387.25 (+144.56%)

Halving comes in a few days

Stock currently at 161. What would even be a catalyst to pump this? I don't see it.

presume you're talking about tsla

that's why you're not the 2nd richest person in the world
