1000 ICE fires release less poisonous toxins than 1 EV fire, including cyanide. And there's no way Houston will be able to power 5 million EV's in the next 25 years.

How will these goshdarned horseless carriages ever take off. We wont have enough fuel or even fueling stations for them.

Sold my meager TSLA holdings today.  Cleared a modest tree fiddy.  Sold out now because the stock price has become completely divorced from reality.  If I wanna gamble my retirement on a meme stock, I’ll buy GameStop.

It’s been divorced from reality for a long long time. And can stay so for a long time longer.

Had a finance guy I know send me an article about how the market can stay wrong longer than you can afford to get against it. 

It was an actual hard copy article, that I was I could remember enough to find it online.

It always cracks me up to read common wisdom like the above, and juxtapose it with the other common "wisdom of the free market" trope.

“Markets can remain irrational longer than you can remain solvent.”  John Maynard Keynes

Reference w/ additional background.  

 

John Maynard Keynes' famous quote, "Markets can remain irrational longer than you can remain solvent," emphasizes the unpredictable nature of financial markets and the risks of betting against them, even when you believe they are mispriced or irrational.

Keynes suggests that:

  1. Irrational Market Behavior: Financial markets don't always behave logically or in line with fundamental economic indicators. Prices may fluctuate wildly due to speculation, investor sentiment, or external shocks that don't align with actual economic conditions.
  2. Risk of Timing the Market: Even if you're correct in assessing the market is irrational (e.g., a stock price is overvalued), it's challenging to predict when that irrational behavior will correct itself. The market can continue to behave irrationally longer than an investor can sustain losses from being on the "right" side of the trade too early.
  3. Solvency Risk: If an investor places a bet expecting the market to revert to rationality, they can lose a lot of money if the market continues its irrational behavior. A fundamentally sound investor can go bankrupt (lose solvency) before the market corrects itself.

In short, Keynes warns that even when you believe the market is misbehaving, it may continue to do so for longer than your financial position can tolerate. This highlights the importance of timing and the perils of assuming that markets will quickly align with rational expectations.

Well we found out that the folks that were buying Tesla, now are not driving demand any longer. With a 1.1% decline in sales for the first time in 9 years.  I know that the long Tesla play is governmental influence and roxotaxi's that do not yet exist.  But isn't the fundamental business of car companies selling cars?   Too early for me to make a hard bet against Tesla, but where are the sales gonna come from now that the brand has lost it's appeal to so many who were buying Teslas?
