A month ago, Tesla Motors was at 43.00 a share. It's now worth 86. If you bought 1,000 shares; you would have made 43k in one month. Many still believe it's going to get to a $120 mark by the end of the year. I don't know about that, but it's one of those "Amazon" type companies with a shitty P/E. Whatever the case, it's a huge jump! Good for them!!!!
I bought some 65-strike calls the day before earnings at about $1.10. A nice little 1750% gain so far.
You lucky bastard! I was a day late and dollar short. I was going to invest last week, then say it jumped 38%. FML!
Well, it probably was mostly luck. Unfortunately, I didn't put much on the trade so absolute dollar-wise, I didn't make THAT much.
http://www.autonews.com/section/topic?taxid=22000733&taxword=Tesla#axzz2TC1iDwJj I had not paid attention to Tesla for a while, and had to figure outwhy this sudden interest.. Is it just me ? Or does this self guided google investmet remind youofthe pre launch of facebook going public?
I think there is some inflation, but not that much. They are creating the "Apple lifestyle" in automobiles. It's insane, but the control panel works almost like the ipad.
Obama had nothing to do with this company. The incentives aren't shit for the end user. You get only a $3k savings on an already 100k car. That's less than 3%. People are buying this car because its cool, not because it saves them money. Now if you are talking about the leaf by nissan; then you maybe onto something.
Up to a 2770% ($1.10 -> $36.1) return in less than a week! Wish I had taken a bigger risk. Coulda, shoulda, woulda.
