šŸ’„WHY I HAVE OVER $1 MILLION IN $TSLA STOCKšŸ’„

Tesla's price may seem out of whack today. The P/E Ratio is insane, right?

But Amazon had similar P/E ratios back in 2014 and 3X higher in 2012. Look at where $AMZN is today.

(1/25)

 $TSLA is my #1 stock because I am looking 5+ years out from today and basing my investment on that. Many people aren't doing that. Many people are looking at current or trailing earnings and comparing them to other vehicle makers.

(2/25)
And yes, I do fully expect there to be some major price pullback -- maybe even a short 30 to 50% drop in $TSLA price at some point, but over the long run, I think it goes way up.

(3/25)
That said, I also believe many Gen Z (and soon, Gen Alpha) will not care about old-school fundamentals and will be investing in companies that fit their beliefs, regardless of the stock price. That aside, let me focus on why I like it...

(4/25)
Here's what I see 5 years from now, in the year 2026:

Level 5 FSD (Full self-driving) #Tesla at way safer levels than humans (5X, 10x SAFER?) I'll buy these for my elderly parents. You'll essentially be able to sleep in your car while it drives you to your destination.

(5/25)
Massive Robo Taxi Network - Unless #Uber and #Lyft partner with #Tesla, I think they'll get squashed here.

I did a poll, and assuming autonomous driving data shows it's safer, most people said they'd prefer to hail a driverless car vs a human-driven car like Uber.

(6/25)
Semi-truck fleets - An #autonomous semi-truck can work 24 hours per day minus the charging time (while it loads and unloads).

It doesn't get paid overtime, doesn't need breaks, doesn't get sick, doesn't get Holidays, doesn't get road rage, and makes essentially...

(7/25)
...no mistakes on the road. Normal trucking fleets with human drivers just won't be able to compete on a cost basis.

Long-haul truck drivers are going the way of the coal miner.

(8/25)
Batteries - #Tesla is investing heavily in battery manufacturing. They know a shortage is coming, and they'll likely be in a position to not only make all the batteries they need by 2026, but to become a major manufacturer of batteries for other companies, just like...

(9/25)
...Panasonic & others do today. I'm confident if the tech shifts to solid-state batteries (or something else) that #Musk will pivot to dominate that space as well. Acquiring a company like $QS might be an option?

(10/25)
Power distribution - the cost of electricity varies, sometimes massively, based on when you're using it.

During peak hours, you get charged more. At 3 am, it's probably cheap. Your #Tesla will likely become its own power center, charging itself when the...

(11/25)
...price is cheapest, and feeding it back into your power grid/home (as needed) during peak/expensive times. Your car saves you money.

#Tesla also makes a #powerwall to do this, and the price of these units will fall as efficiency goes up.

(12/25)
Licensing - Other manufacturers will throw in the towel & decide it's better to just license the FSD tech from #Tesla than to try to catch up.

Especially if the data shows the #TESLA OS for FSD is way safer than other OS's, and way, wayyyy safer than human drivers.

(13/25)
No other FSD company today is even close to #Tesla on how many roads and miles have been traveled, with data on it all. If you're letting a car drive you around, you want the best OS for yourself, your kids, and your family.

(14/25)
The Tesla OS could become something like #Android for your phone. With this, #Tesla now reaches a large percentage of new EV's in the world, from many manufacturers, and has a steady and massive recurring licensing play.

(15/25)
#SaaS - This will be a HUGE revenue generator for #Tesla as they start reaching 10's of millions of cars on the road, & hundreds of millions of cars if the licensing play for their OS takes off.

People will pay monthly to have FSD or unique features activated.

(16/25)
People will want internet in their #TESLA and will pay a monthly fee for this (#Starlink).

Tesla will generate revenue through partnerships for gaming, media content, GPS, etc.

(17/25)
Solar - This will play a big part in disrupting the energy sector. In 10+yrs, I see a world where people generate power & sell to the market themselves.

While not technically #Tesla, I see it helping massively with the supercharging network Tesla continues to grow.

(18/25)
Boring Tunnels - let's face it, we hate traffic, whether we or the car is self-driving.

#Elon owns the boring company, which is starting to create underground high-speed transit.

Just a feeling, but I imagine that once cars are allowed, it will likely only ...

(19/25)
... allow #Tesla OS vehicles in, as they self-pilot into position (like Amazon robots in the warehouses.)

This will benefit the $TSLA robo-taxi fleet as well, allowing MUCH faster travel during congested times.

This one is definitely a long-term play (10+ years.)

(20/25)
#LUCID vs #TESLA - Big fan of Lucid, but they are years behind #Tesla & I see them somewhat competing on the car sales & power distribution portion of points I made, & on a very limited scale.

Their valuation has to be different than Telsa's because of this.

(21/25)
#RIVIAN vs TESLA - Rivian has big investors, but I see Elon out-spending & engineering Rivian to ensure his cyber truck does everything better.

Tesla moves fast. Rivian was founded 3 yrs before the Model S. 12 yrs later, Rivian still doesn't have a production vehicle.

(22/25)
#ElonMusk just has too much of a headstart and too many miles of data being accumulated which helps his AI/ML software to get even better, faster. He has SpaceX tech that will improve his vehicles (StarLink being the first).

(23/25)
Price/Performance - #Tesla is rolling out sub $30K cars that destroy the competition in terms of performance.

Market penetration to be massive in the next 5 years.

(24/25)
This #Tesla thread is getting pretty long, but those are just some of the reasons why I am bullish on $TSLA.

So yeah, I'm super bullish on a company that I think fundamentally disrupts industries on so many levels.

(25/25)
(26/25) šŸ„“
BTW, this is in no way due diligence. Just my thoughts outside of the technical/financial diligence one might do.

And much like Amazon has done from starting out and being valued as an online book store, I think Tesla will break out into various massive markets too.

Circle of Competence 101

Warren Buffett and Charlie Munger often reference the importance of knowing the boundaries of your circle of competence.

But what is a Circle of Competence and how does it work?

Here's Circle of Competence 101!


1/ First, a few definitions.

A Circle of Competence is the set of topic areas that align with a person's expertise.

If the entire world of information were to be expressed in a circle, an individual's Circle of Competence is the small sub-circle that represents their expertise.


2/ The idea surfaced in the 1996 BH annual letter.

"You donā€™t have to be an expert on every company...you only have to be able to evaluate companies within your circle of competence. The size of that circle is not very important; knowing its boundaries, however, is vital."


3/ A Circle of Competence is built over time.

It is built through experience, reading, dedicated study, and effort.

It is dynamic, not static.

It can expand as you deepen your knowledge in new areas. It can contract if you fail to nurture your existing areas of expertise.

4/ To engage this mental model in your life, there are two key processes to go through:

(1) Identify what falls within your circle
(2) Identify the boundaries of your circle

(1) is all about figuring out what you know, while (2) is about humbly admitting what you donā€™t.

- Costly export health certificates for fishery products
- Inbound and outbound customs and regulatory checks (UK side will defer some of these temporarily)

- Stringent rules of origin and local content requirements
- Loss of freedom of movement for UK citizens in the EU and EU citizens in the UK (Ireland excepted)
- No Erasmus programme
- No equivalence decision for financial services

- A border down the Irish sea between NI & GB
- No access to the Galileo military
- Temporary agreement on data, which expires in 6 months
- 2 parallel trademark systems, requiring firms to file twice in the UK and the EU

CHEAT-SHEET

Multiple Confirmation short.

A Short Entry that we shared in 2020.

Study it point wise.

1. Bearish Candle type and lowering of volume on Price rise.

2. OBV divergence.

3. Accumulation with Bearish candles and Volume increase on Price decrease.

STUDY IT!


Explanation

1. When price increases with a decreasing volume, it's bearish.

2. OBV, On Balance Volume should be correlated with price.
If price increases without similar increase in OBV, it's bearish.

3. During consolidation, if the volume increases during dumps, it's bearish

Knowledge sharing initiative Book 4: "The interpretation of financial statements" by Benjamin Graham.

This book was published around 1937 by investing legend Ben Graham. Ben is also regarded as the guy under whom the great Warren Buffett started his investing journey.


This book teaches financial statement analysis in a very simple manner. It also focuses on the key relationship between P&L, B/s & Cash flow statements of a company.

Here are key takeaways from the book šŸ‘‡šŸ‘‡

1.B/s shows how much a company owns (assets) & owes (liabilities) at a particular point in time mostly prepared on a semi-annual & annual basis.

2.Assets=Tangible (PP&E, inventories, accounts receivable, cash)+intangible Assets (trademark, lease rights, goodwill)

3.Liabilities=Short term debt (accounts payable,current portion of long term debt,advances from customers) + Long term Debt (bank loans,bonds,lease liability)
4.Tangible assets are written down through depreciation & intangibles are written down through amortization or impairment

5. Depreciation & amortization means normal wearing out assets over its typical lifespan. It allows the cost of the asset to be charged off (in the income statement) over a number of years.

6. Depletion gets applied in commodity businesses like cement, mining, and crude oil.

Traders often overlook the SHORT STRADDLE due to its simplicity.

It remains the TOP strategy to make money when the market is not trending.

Here's how you can make money using only the short straddle
in various market conditions

ā¬‡ļø A comprehensive threadšŸ§µ


A short straddle is the most basic neutral options strategy.

Where a call option and a put option are sold at the same strike price.

Max profit = Total premium received ( call leg + put leg )

Max risk = Unlimited

(using SLs would be wise)

Upper breakeven = Strike price + Total Premium received

Lower breakeven = Strike price - Total Premium received


Essentially short straddles are initiated when the trader is confident about the market staying in a certain range (between the breakevens of the straddle)

Long-term short straddles usually require fewer adjustments since the range is wide.

Since unlimited loss is a component of the strategy, the trader has to adjust the strategy to increase profit/ mitigating risk

Surkanda devi mandir is a famous shrine of Hindus located near Kaddukhal distt of Uttarakhand, 11 Km from the town of Dhanaulti and 35 Km from Mussoorie.
The Temple is one of the 51 Shakti Peethas spread all over Indian Subcontinent and is dedicated to Goddess Surkanda.


Nestled on a Hill at an Altitude of 2700 m approx, the place offers a splendid view of the snow capped mountains, the picturesque scenic beauty that offers an experience of the lifetime.
The Temple build in the traditional Garhwal style exuberates the Architectural splendour.


The origins of the Surkanda Mata Mandir is attributed to Goddess Sati, consort of Bhagwan Shiv who in a rage immolated herself in her arrogant Father Daksha's Yajna Kund bcoz he didn't invite Bhagwan Shiv in the Yajna.


Devastated by the death of Sati Shiva wandered all over the cosmos performing Tandava-The Dance of Cosmic Destruction.Fearing the total annihilation of cosmos, Gods requested Bhagwan Vishnu to pacify Shiva.Bhagwan Vishnu then used his discuss to destroy the burning corps of Sati.


The pieces of Sati Mata's body then got scattered all over the region which were later established as Shakti Peethas by Bhagwan Shiva himself.Its believed that the head of Sati fell here and it was called Sirkhanda Mata Temple before, but with passage of time it became Surkanda.

"How the Avengers would respond to the Capitol riot" (a thread)

CAPTAIN AMERICA - tells Falcon, "I fought Nazis once before. They're extremely dangerous." They then see the guy scaling the Capitol wall fall into the shrubs. Falcon: "You sure these are the same Nazis?"

IRON MAN - lands by the guy carrying the podium. Says, "Mind if I borrow this?" then tosses it to Hulk, who swings it like a bat at the mob. Guy: "Hey, that's MY podium!" Iron Man: "Actually it's the Speaker's. And technically, it's a lectern." Then punches him through a wall.

BLACK WIDOW - enters hotel room where Jack Dorsey is tied up. Rips duct tape off his mouth. Jack: "I'll do anything you want!" BW: "Disable POTUS's Twitter. NOW!" Jack fumbles with his phone. "Done. Anything else?" BW: "Yeah. Trim your beard for God's sake." *tosses him clippers*

HULK - grabs a selfie stick from one of the guys and beats him over the head with it. Deeming it too small, he grabs another guy's Confederate flag and takes out a whole swath of rioters. He then tosses the flag to Cap, who uses it as a javelin to impale a fleeing Ted Cruz.

HAWKEYE - hears Iron Man in his earpiece say, "Looks like Orange Julius is tweeting from another account." Hawkeye: "On it." He locks in on Trump through the White House window and fires an arrow, knocking the phone out of Trump's hands. Hawkeye: "Damn that felt good."

SRI SWETHA VINAYAGAR, THIRUVALANCHUZHI, KUMBAKONAM
(TN)
#bharatmandir

While main deity is Shiva as Kapartheeswarar, the kshetram is famous for Ganesha, known as Swetha/Vellai Vinayagar (white Vinayak)

During samudra manthan, Vasuki snake (used as rope) started spewing venom.


Unable to bear the intense heat, Devas rushed to Siva. He told them that this was because the task was started without getting Ganeshaā€™s approval.
So the Devas created a Ganesha murti from white sea foam and worshipped it.
It was later taken by Indra to Indralok.
@GunduHuDuGa


But once Indra had to come to Earth to pray to Shiva to seek relief from a curse inflicted on him. So he brought the murti of Ganesha with him. When he came here, he wanted to take bath before puja. So he gave the murti to a boy to hold for sometime. The boy was actually Shiva.


He kept the murti down and vanished. Indra could not lift it again and a divine voice told him to let Vinayagar stay there and visit every Ganesh Chaturthi to pray.
Since Vinayagar is made of foam, no abhishekam is done here. Only punugu is applied n camphor powder is sprinkled

Hey, for people interested in this stuff, here's a thread about a change we made to running our facebook account:

So, about 5 years ago, we got on facebook. Why? Well, facebook has a big audience and they like to consume on facebook. So, we started posting comics there, even though we got paid nothing and facebook made money off the free content.

Why? Because back then, once in a while, you would say "also hey, I sell books" or "hey, I'm going to be signing at this event" and your facebook followers would actually see it.

Effectively, the implicit old arrangement was "facebook lets me reach readers efficiently, and I supply facebook with free content they run ads on."

Over time, like a bad business partner, facebook basically made it impossible to reach your audience without *paying them*. Thus, you supply them free content on which they run ads, and you get nothing in exchange.
