      In no order: 1) VOO 2) QQQM 3) SCHG/VUG 4) VTI 5) SCHD/DGRO. Personally I put down 1.3m$ on few ETFs, still diversifying. it was this time last year I made my first million with a liquid 200k.handed it to a trader here in CA, I get weekly pay out which I put back on long term ETF's. Tesla will be a huge buy for me when the market bottoms.

    No specific mention of Cybertruck, so I don’t know if you’ll be shutting down your channel or not! But Tesla DID just announce that they are laying off more than 14,000 workers which is roughly equal to 10% of its current global workforce.

    • @BarryObaminable
      @BarryObaminable 10 วันที่ผ่านมา

      which they have done before.
      the decimation of tech work force is literally standard practice at some companies.
      They make workers submit their projects and the bottom 10% are lopped off.. even if they make the company money. Its about getting rid of the lowest performing workers and replacing them with newer cheaper hungry workers.
      It prevents entrenchment and stagnation

    I have a pre-order on a Tesla Cybertruck, but that was for a single motor (entry level) one for the initial estimated price of US$ 40,000, which they don't have nor plan to make yet. I would much rather buy a Ford Lightning truck if the battery technology would improve on it, since it is a more practical truck. The price difference between a Cybertruck and a Lightning would also favour the Lightning truck. However, I don't want to spend US$ 75,000 on a Ford Lightning when in 10 years battery degradation is so bad that it will need a new battery at a cost of US$ 32,000 plus labour.

    Putting aside the Cybertruck, which at this point is not material to Tesla's business, even with enthusiatic demand, Tesla is experiencing Global softness in sales. This is really based on much weaker demand in China, but no exclusively so. Wedbush, CNBC and others are reporting that the portion of the headline that is true, is that of large layoffs. Of Tesla's 140,000 head count, the company will layoff 10%, or 14.000, which is a lot considering that EV demand was expected to grow.

    The Cybertruck was announced with much fanfare and many pre-orders taken. Then...it took around 4 years for the first production vehicles to be delivered and a couple things happened that seems to have dampened the enthusiasm. First is they cost a LOT more than originally promised which turned a lot of people off....and what is being delivered isn't meeting expectations either so I believe many have cancelled their orders or aren't accepting delivery when their truck is ready. Once the initial glow wears off they will have to stand on their own merits and EV's in general are proving to be a niche market despite all the demands of government that we all switch over to them. It isn't going to happen and all the money spent on EV development is going to bankrupt many companies.

Practical problems with the design, and all of the other problems that it has been having… A lot of people are reconsidering here, so the article might be true.
    Personally, I’ve never been a fan… The thing is just Elon’s ego gone wild. Its parochial design is obscenely ugly, it’s not practical, not to mention he made a lot of promises that weren’t delivered with the “truck”.
    In fact… Many of us are changing our minds about Elon in general, not wanting to buy a product from a man who ruined Twitter for a one… And they just don’t agree with his politics and perspective on so-called freedom of speech.
