And Uber vehicles can be of a totally different design, designed to seat, zero, 1,3,5, 7 people. Or they could be combined to tandem, like the tractor trailer model used by trucks. Depending on the expected traffic load, the vehicles can be recombined to meet service level requirements of point to point travel. Regular cars would be like horses, to be watched at the races or for fun of riding.

The idea of a 160 pound person getting into a 3000 pound vehicle to pick up 20 pounds of groceries/ parts/documents needs to be defeated. Let the transportation companies optimize the delivery of goods and people, then cars can mainly be for fun.

RE <<TSLA>>

Fire-trench Message 33060674

Order of battle looked so at this way-point Message 33059044 , and looking a little different now, as I claimed some profit on the shorted puts expirations December

I think we are being handed an opportunity, to maintain net-long before going absolute-short, to win-win

Would be great or greater if gold and BTC gets clobbered more than already, to allow for setup for win-again-win

The boyz are ramping the share price by goosing the call options. The game is easy to play once the rules are understood. Just go long calls as they do, except doing it by buying the calls further into the future than what they are directly goosing, even as one sells further out-of-the-money calls above the calls one is buying, go 1:1, with the expiration of the longs further into the future than the calls one is shorting

Just for example, if doing now, perhaps

- long TSLA Calls December 31st strike 700,
- short TSLA Calls December 24th strike 800 in 1:1 ratio, and if one must add chills to thrills
- short TSLA Puts December 31st strike 450, but a lot less than 1:1 ratio, and if in 1:1 ratio, claim profit as opposed to holding until expiration, and

- duplicate the same structure every week going forward, but not too many times. Would keep the longest expiration to mid-March. Intention is to win on all three parts of the each trade.

- The specific prices for the option transactions hardly matters as long as TSLA options remain highly liquid.

- At some psychological moment double TSLA short Calls in the front periods (or write new (short) Calls with higher-still strikes, close the short Puts, and close the long Calls, into the finish of a campaign. Hive off some profit for GBTC, that which is dropping at the moment.

I think a crash may happen March / April, or April / May, of just about everything, including TSLA, allowing for one-way bets.

In the meantime can ‘they’ get TSLA to 1,000 by March? Yes, and pretty easily, especially once the passive index ETF investor’s money are volunteered to be sacrificed to Mr. Market starting 18th December. This would be terrible for the passive investors, but great for shorting TSLA, from a higher ledge.

Tesla Is Now Bigger Than Berkshire Following Furious "Gamma" Blast

It's official: ignoring any and all negative news, and rampaging higher day after day culminating in what a mindblowing 586% return YTD, Tesla has just surpassed Berkshire Hatahaway in market cap at just over $550 billion, a fitting tribute to Elon Musk who also recently overtook Warren Buffett in wealth, and is now the world's 2nd richest man after Jeff Bezos.



The latest move appears to be yet another good old gamma grab, with SpotGamma reporting that on Wednesday TSLA alone traded over 1 million calls, with at least 350k of this volume was concentrated at the Friday expiration. Is SoftBank going for another squeeze?

As SoftGamma concludes, "these plays are similar to August, the question is will this call buying “infect” the broader indicies" and judging by the latest record high in the Nasdaq, the answer is a resounding yes.
