Bad news for Tesla, California new registrations down 46.5% to 13584 Teslas in Q4 2019 vs Q4 2018's 25402. California is exactly where you would want a Tesla, tons of sunshine, good weather, sky high fuel prices, and yet the registrations are down??

Another article today Short interest in Tesla swelled to $14.5 billion. This stock is totally volatile. Only two ways to go about it, avoid entirely, or go very long.

at this minute its back below $500 but who knows what happens next? Very entertaining to follow imo.

Not bad. They out-sold the CX-5 by a few thousand.

From Jan to Sep 2019, in CA, the Model 3 was the 3rd best selling sedan in CA behind Civic and Camry.

Any uncertainty that affects future orders will affect the stock. We won't know if a trend has started until we see a couple of quarters of data.

A stock as volatile as TSLA will show these fluctuations.

Stock price is a function of what investors think the stock price will be.
Orders, profitability, etc are factors.
Regarding orders, there are 3 important facts:
Model 3 sales are growing in a shrinking sedan market. And overseas deliveries are expensive and cannot meet demand. Tesla sales are primarily a US delivery.
The Model Y SUV is nearing release. SUVs are hot. The Y will certainly consume some 3 sales along with competitor's SUV sales.
The Shanghai Gigafactory started selling cars. China is the #1 market in the world and they love EVs.

Tesla has been a wild ride, no doubt.
 
Maybe California is waiting for the Model Y and then will show some high registrations again.

You understand Tesla set another quarterly record in Q4. If CA is down that much and they still set another record, what does that tell you?
It means the market is expanding.

But yes, many are waiting for the Model Y. I saw one driving on 280 last week.
From this angle, I don't care too much for the looks; perhaps I am used to the 3.

See, now, I REALLY like that look, definitely my favourite Tesla body style. But I'm a fan of the X6 and GLC, so that shouldn't be a surprise

Once mainstream brands go PEV it will collapse or sell out.

I saw one of those with the little wing on the back at the post office today. They're everywhere. I just don't like the look, either. It looks like a BMW X6 that someone assembled in their garage from a cheap E-bay kit.

Tesla actually hit @22% per Model 3, for the last quarter in 2019. Up from 18.9%. Just another reason I won't buy one. Poor support. Poor R&D. Poorly done EVERYTHING, and they want more of my money than anyone but Porsche, Ferrari, and Aston, it seems. Tesla is an emotion-driven creature, and is not sustainable.
 
I was thinking about about buying Tesla stock about 3 years ago but invested in something else.

I'm surprised Tesla stock has done so well...

Many large investment funds are required/choose to heavily weigh "being green" and "environment" when purchasing shares. Tesla checks all the boxes in that regard so the money just pours in. With interest rates having been at historic lows for over a decade money has to go somewhere. Ironically the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia is the third largest holder of institutional shares (4.5 percent).
