Apple and Tesla and Nvidia stocks just rose despite the fact there's a 125% tariff on Chinese components, meaning their prices are still completely fucked.

It's a run down casino and they don't even give you free drinks.

So they’ve probably just quietly fired thousands of workers and closed or paused a few developments.

In Tesla's case, the product is inferior to its competition.

Elon's been investing almost all his cash flow in R&D for years.

He seems to have little interest in Tesla's future as a car company.

Oh, c'mon, Nash; casinos are a gold mine! They practically print money! Why, when was the last time you ever heard of a casino going bankrupt?

Oh, wait.

Back down next week, my guess.

So it's the Trump Taj Mahal...

The markets are like crypto, up and down like a brides nightie whenever someone tweets something.

cosmiclobster.bsky.social•13 days ago

Love the analogy!!

You also might want to stay away from the endless shrimp...

And since batteries are one of the biggest costs of an EV, this means production costs of Teslas in the US will go WAY UP, but profit margins will suffer a commensurate amount.

Best news I've read all day, watching the Nazimobile CEO freak out as his wealth evaporates will be delightful

a4xrbj1.bsky.social•13 days ago

Not just Tesla’s. Their US build Megapacks are just sourced CATL batteries that they put into a shipping container. Plus some smart tech to control it. That’s it.

Powerwalls? The same. They are already losing market share due to cheaper competition, including BYD and CATL’s own powerwall solutions.

Anyone who still believes that we have a data driven market is crazy, it's been emotion driven for years.

bobismyuserid.bsky.social•13 days ago

Forever.

Data in trading was just a way to give illusion of control over what has always been pure human emotions

kellina.bsky.social•13 days ago

For sure since electronic trading. I think back before it was so easy there had to be more intellect for the effort.

bobismyuserid.bsky.social•13 days ago

Eh, considering you have a lot of insane stories in 19th century like the train craze, I think it’s always been this way. It’s effect are just more global. Only thing that avoid this are good regulations and those have been gone for a while.

kellina.bsky.social•13 days ago

Trading used to have a five day settlement, up until 2017, this largely prevented purely emotional trading. It's also why the books were cooked so often, to generate data driven crazes.

bobismyuserid.bsky.social•13 days ago

Yeah I can believe that. As I said before good policies.

yuenqiu.bsky.social•13 days ago

Last year it came out that a Dior tote bag that they charged thousands for cost them less than $65 to make. Prices are BS with some smoke and mirrors.

mindy103.bsky.social•13 days ago

That’s the power of branding. This is why Tesla is F*cked.

zferrell.bsky.social•12 days ago

supernanamel.bsky.social•13 days ago

Walmart had a good day, too, and all of their merchandise comes from China. They even announced before the markets opened that they no longer stood behind their earnings estimates. Nevertheless, they were up 4% BEFORE Trump announced his tariffs pause.

zazaelon.bsky.social•13 days ago

All Trades run by algorithm, that's all. Fucking criminals 🤬🤬🤬
#tesla #gme #apple #meta #reddit ..... we're following the same pattern what a coincidence 😂😂😂🤣

gonzoengineer.bsky.social•13 days ago

Of all the stocks to skyrocket, Tesla should've gone the opposite direction. They were the "most American made" car under the new tariffs, but now all that competition came roaring back. Tesla is a definite SELL. What is happening to our reality?

mindy103.bsky.social•13 days ago

Most average people just heard “tariffs paused” and rushed back in…speculators and other Trump cronies rushed back in to take advantage, but they are gonna bail before it tanks leaving the average folks penniless …

rebelqi.bsky.social•12 days ago

Or you can get out now!

gjwren.bsky.social•13 days ago

A reacharound would have been nice

avalanche-andy.bsky.social•13 days ago

People are idiots and they are in charge.

Pump and dump coming !

drloveless.bsky.social•13 days ago

Brazen market manipulation by the oligarchy.

merri24.bsky.social•13 days ago

Wonder what they all have in common? 🙄

vespalien.bsky.social•13 days ago

Trump & cronies are stiffing the stock market punters. It's deliberate market manipulation.

Sell, crash the market, rebuy, pause the tariffs & sell on ghe high.

heathercosta.bsky.social•13 days ago

At least in a run down casino, the table games are cheaper. This is like if each hand of blackjack cost $2500 per hand.

Trump's natural habitat

snabbkassa.bsky.social•12 days ago

Apple will be fretting not just over what consumers can bear, but the likely explosive response from the White House when they dare to increase prices. Apple has so much cash they could choose to freeze prices for a year.

stillgrammabear.bsky.social•13 days ago

Because Trump put a 90 day pause on the tariff after he tweeted out now is the time to buy (stocks)

assessor1.bsky.social•13 days ago

Uhmn,…the croupiers are crooked, tables are rigged and the die are loaded!
And we still lose money.
‘Cause we’re just a front for the MOB.

Welcome to Trump’s Taj Mahal!🤣

generaltekno.bttoons.com•13 days ago

Yeah hearing that makes me go WTF given their costs are still through the roof

Investing clearly takes no brain cells.

alexstaniforth98.bsky.social•13 days ago

Tesla will end up performing well. They'll stop foreign imports of cars but allow the imports of Tesla parts.

bf1930.bsky.social•13 days ago

That's because people are still buying as of today... when the buying slows down, the pricing will drop... and so will the stocks.

virgopunk.bsky.social•13 days ago

Amazon too, and over 40% of their stock is China made. There's no rhyme or reason to it.

jackphantom.bsky.social•13 days ago

spotweld.bsky.social•13 days ago

There used to be a rule of thumb that you could do well in the market if you watched what the “smart money” was doing l, and then taking action before the “dumb money” reversed the trend. I am of the opinion that all the “smart money” has left the market for the foreseeable future.

a4xrbj1.bsky.social•13 days ago

Correct, Tesla sources at 39% of their batteries from China as per Asia Nikkei:

texasrunaway.bsky.social•13 days ago

lol. Pretty much the truth. Apple is my long hold. It killed me selling a few a month ago. But pitched AMZN, Googl, Meta months ago. I don’t play games. I like making money.
