Tesla is now only worth 13x General Motors.

If TSLA keeps falling at some point there will be a buyback.

Then Tesla can sell those shares in a couple of years when TSLA reaches a new all time high.

Reaganez: "If TSLA keeps falling at some point there will be a buyback."

Your comments will be very comforting to those who bought Tesla stock in the last 18 months.

Looks like Elon struck his dick in a fan.

But, who knows? Life is strange

Someone could have made a lot of money if they were savvy enough to short Tesla’s stock late last year.

Your comments will be very comforting to those who bought Tesla stock in the last 18 months. The folks who bought GM aren't any more comforted.

I bailed out of stocks in my 401K months ago and put it in a safe 1% return. No regrets.

If the Tesla buyers are in for the long haul, they may do okay later on. You don't buy big on Tesla thinking it is risk proof. If your stock goes down with most other stocks, and it puts you in a bad way, then stocks might not be an appropriate investment vehicle.

As a car company, Tesla is wildly overpriced. It's just stupid when you compare it to GM, Ford, or Toyota.

Tesla isn't a car company though, it's much more of a tech company that happens to make cars. A portion of its assets are in cryptocurrencies (which have taken a hit recently), and a lot of its real value is in data collected from its user base, which is something that's hard to put a pin into for absolute value because a lot of the value hasn't been realized yet.

I had thought about shorting Tesla when it was at $1200 but immediately got that thought out of my head due to these two common trader sayings:

“You never know how big a bubble can blow or how long it can last.”

“The markets can stay irrational much longer than you can stay solvent”. Ask the idiots at the hedge fund who didn’t hedge their shorts on Gamestock about that one.

The problem for Tesla is that all the other majors like Toyota are ramping up serious competition.

$$$$$$$$$$$

IMHO, the real problem for Tesla is that Musk violated Omerta with his comments about Twitter (free speech and Twitter bots), and now Tesla is on the disinvestment list of the Globalists and Liberals.

Good for you.

Ever hear of Series I (like the i in inflation) Savings Bonds?

US Government backed and the current return for the next six months is 9.62%

9.62%.

$10,000 max limit per person per year.

Interesting post.

Not everyone understands that the rate of return for six months is 4.81%.

9.62% is the 12 month rate.

I spent about 10 minutes on the website, and I still do not understand what my interest rate is going to be AFTER six months.

Also, I cannot find any historical charts for rates AFTER six months.

Finally found the FAQ link, which is quite helpful.

Two not-obvious alerts.

100% of the interest is added to the value of the bond. They do not pay the dividend directly to you.

You must sell the bond to get your interest. However, if you sell your bond before five years, they subtract three months of interest already paid into your bond.
