First step in getting FNMA and FMCC out of conservatorship. Been waiting a long, long time on this one.

FNMA is about 10% of my Roth IRA, and that is after selling so much of it I am purely playing with the houses money at this point.

Going to assume it’s way too late to hop on this bandwagon.

Uber's other problem is rulings are going against them. If they have to treat drivers as employees and not independent contractors, they are screwed. They are also being banned in places like Germany and LAX. Taxi companies fighting them on one end, self driving companies coming at them from the other.

The complete uncertainty of prospective government regulation adds a lot of risks to things that should be comparatively easy to predict otherwise.

Since our last discussion about fraction shares, I've been waiting for Robinhood to roll it out (announced in December but doesn't seem like it's happening soon) and missed on the Tesla spike. Anyone have a suggestion on what to use?

Buying calls on Robinhood. Also curious though. I believe Fidelity already rolled out fraction sharing.

No. IMO they are going to change the world & we are still in our infancy.

M1 has it as well, but I prefer Fidelity.

Calls are so damn expensive for the foreseeable future.

Depends if you're in it for a short term spike or the long term.

I expect it to go much higher (5x or more) over the next several years. I wish I had been able to buy more before it went up, I'm not planning to sell any for a long time, but I'm not buying any more right now either.

5x???

That'd put it near $5,000 a share. Not too sure I see that type of potential there. Maybe 2x, but theres just no way they have that much more rapid growth than Amazon.

It will split multiple times. Price wont touch 5k.

Tesla has a massive brand with zero marketing, their EV cars are years ahead of other manufacturers, others have large investments in regular engine powered cars so the transition will take some time, the tech is only getting better & the cars are only getting cheaper. Demand for the cars is going up.

Its hard to doubt a company that just began turning a profit and still have a small percentage of the automobile market share. This is where things ramp up. Battery Day discussion should and will be a monumental day for Tesla. Model Y demand will outpace all other models. Cybertruck concerns me a bit, but the product is there.

Add in self drive, AI, and the stock will only go up as the price of cars comes down.

Once the split happens....everyone and there brother will pump that stock back up to its original position.

I’m more of a long term guy. $910 a share is kind of a lot for me at the moment though.
