    JamesCat has been pretty accurate when it comes to delivery data and EPS estimates.
    He is pretty level headed compared to the TroyTeslike dude.

    Biden is beholden to the union mafia that got him elected. Democrats are beholden to the “billionaire bad” Marxist ideology. Both of these things is why they engaged in widespread lawfare to hamper him at every turn and turned Elon, a life long Democrat voter into the singular reason why Trump is our next president.

    Good graphic but doesn't really answer the question.

    How was Tesla's stock price held down by what's shown in that graphic? Some details would be great.

    Gary Black is useless.
    I block Omar.

    Also what's your problem brah..
    Rub one out. You seem tense.

    Nobody here can answer that question for you because nobody knows your financial situation. Financial advisors/planners can be more than "stock pickers". If all you want them to do is pick stocks, then, yeah, maybe they're not for you. If you have real estate investments, legal issues you're not sure about, financial planning for the future, possible tax, etc. questions, then they can potentially be very helpful.

    Go talk to a few, see what their fees are, how the fees work, what they can do for you, etc. But before that, be able to tell them why you're there.

    The same type of messages and sentiment was around during 2021. You could pick any stock from the market and make money. This makes people complacent and I guarantee you, new bagholders are being created as we speak.

    I lost my faith in Twitter and society around this time. LOL. Actually, I lost it a bit before that, but still this was one of those societal bottom moments for me. :D

    A sarcastic irritant whose primary defense or counter argument is off topic random statements.

    like what was the point of his question about Omar?
    :rolleyes::rolleyes:

    It seems you're misreading my intention. You've suggested JamesCat in the past. I've seen his work in passing previously and started engaging more with his posts in attempts to bump his posts higher in my algo. He is an objective person.

    Omar and Gary Black give the give the space a bad name. Maybe sarcasm isn't your thing. Got it.

    If you're not buying Tesla, then let this be your sign.
