Gain Calling all recently separated Fiancées, 94k to 240k on TSLA puts

u/CHRISKOSS Feb 27 '25
Sales are down 75% in Spain, 60% in Germany. China is eating huge amounts of EV market share in Europe. TSLA was priced on cult of personality and a bunch of people realized they don't like Elon's personality in the past month.
When Q1 earnings are released on April 29th, gonna be funny af

I have never seen someone light their reputation on fire so quickly. The brand is dead as dogshit. There is no recovering from this.

He can just give himself some government contracts. Cancel the new post office vehicle contract with Oshkosh Defense and have them drive Teslas. Stock goes back up.

u/brot_muss_her Feb 28 '25
Not remotely enough to cover retail sales unless the government pumps at least 50 billion USD into it, yearly.
But maybe Musk will merge Tesla with SpaceX to make SpaceX go public.

u/kaucasianpersuasion Mar 04 '25
SpaceX is also almost entirely government reliant and estimated to be in the negative. Especially with them losing that huge contract from Carlos Slim, i think it was $7B, with a yearly revenue of $10B? yea spacex is toast as well. Elon runs companies just as well as Trump does.

Watch it spike 100% for no fucking reason after they post a massive drop in profits lul

u/SafeVeterinarian2960 Feb 28 '25
Not no reason, it will do this if the market was expecting bad earnings, but they aren't as bad as it was expecting.

u/Patient_Parking9451 Feb 28 '25
Yes literally and an actually cool and innovative car once Elon took over and ousted the founders that dream was dead

u/SafeVeterinarian2960 Feb 28 '25
The market knows this though, it will be expecting bad earnings. The price accounts for all available information.

I don't think you understand how he just alienated himself from his largest market share in the united states by throwing up a Hail Hitler. The environmentally minded liberal group are the ones who were buying his cars - and that's no longer happening lol. Europe has a much more founded understanding of how dangerous nazi-fascism than the United States does and their declining sales represent as much there. He's not going to be able to right this ship.

I think you are going to be incredibly wrong. Conservatives don't drive EV's lol. I live in the south and they absolutely won't go near an EV. All they drive here are Ford F150s and Chevy's. Tesla's aren't anywhere near the discussion and the ONLY one they would consider is the Cybertruck which is far outside their financial range from living in trailers.
And you can't forget Europe. Europe understands the dangerousness of Musk and their 50-60% declining sales reveal as much. Conservatives in the United States can not sustain the growth we have seen thus far. REMIND me in 2 years

u/Heavypz Feb 28 '25
lol this guy you going back and forth with too busy asking people on Reddit to edge together to pull his eyes away from porn and see the writing on the wall.
Conservative not only don’t drive ev’s. They fucking loathe them.
If I had a dollar for every time I’ve heard “I’ll stick with my dinosaur juice”, I’d be able to buy an assload (no edging to this assload) of tsla puts

u/Tkrumroy Feb 28 '25
haha right?! They see what ever they want to see. "My conservative friends are buying EVs" lololol ok. Doesn't matter that the entire rest of the world is jumping ship because they aren't part of the cult. The cult can only support so much - and it's not going to prevent the fall of his EV side of the company.

LOL ok bud. The cult can only support Tesla so much and it's not enough to offset the rest of the world who aren't a part of the orange man cult.

You truly think a company with a man that is this politically divisive throwing up Hail Hitlers on stage with pride can maintain the momentum unscathed?

u/Tkrumroy Mar 01 '25
I wouldn’t trust it. Plus, who doesn’t love driving lol? It’s the most fun thing and I drive everywhere I can.
There are so many roads here in the southeast that aren’t even marked with lines - that’s there I’d be wary

im down 10k on the TSLL. so annoying
19
u/QwertyPolka Feb 27 '25
why the fuck did you pick TSLL, were you expecting another dead cat bounce?
6
Feb 27 '25
I put 20k about an hour after the European sales number were revealed thinking that the sell off was a flash in the pan. Rapid deterioration of the position prompted me to keep average down several times but the thing kept bleeding. After 8k of unrealized losses, I finally gave in and decided to hedge the position by taking out an equal position ($65k) in the TSLQ yesterday.
Dude, I kid you not, I decided to take off the TSLQ position today thinking it was do for a bounce and then the tariff announcement came out. I endured 2k more in losses before selling out of the original position which at least proved correct. Ill be back at it tomorrow though.

u/QwertyPolka Feb 27 '25
Elon did two forbidden salutes. Hatred is building against the brand. What scenario are you envisioning for this stock to rise on the short term.
1
Feb 28 '25
I play off momentum and trade on volatility. It's how I've made money, obviously not on this trade.

u/LordoftheEyez Feb 28 '25
Wait you lost on both the long and short? 😂 tough

Feb 28 '25
the short was just a hedge. i sold out too early and incurred more long losses. didnt even play today though, im kinda is the doghouse for now.

I was hoping for a retest of 300 before I could jump in on the way down to 250. I still plan to re-enter but I’m looking for a Green Day to jump back in
