He said the recent price cuts and other price cuts show that Tesla vehicles do not have the demand that its fans claim.</p>\n<p>\"Tesla can't keep its current factories running at capacity without ... price cuts,\" said Johnson in note on Monday.</p>\n<p><b>Increased competition</b></p>\n<p>Established automakers have recently set ambitious targets for their own EV sales.</p>\n<p>General Motors rolled out an SUV version of its Chevrolet Bolt a week ago, priced well below the Model Y, and announced it intends to sell only emissions-free cars after 2035.Ford set an even more ambitious EV target for its European sales, saying all of the car models it sells there will be EVs by 2030.</p>\n<p>Apple is also considering partnering with an automaker toget into the car business, according to several news reports.</p>\n<p>Those efforts are making some Tesla investors nervous, said Ives, although he believes there will be enough of a shift to EVs for multiple winners among global automakers.</p>\n<p><b>Investors got ahead of themselves</b></p>\n<p>Tesla shares peaked one day before a disappointing earnings report on January 27 that fell short of forecasts from Wall Street analysts.</p>\n<p>The earnings showed that the money Tesla made from the sale of regulatory credits to other automakers outpaced its overall net income. Critics, like Johnson, said it's proof Tesla isn't able to make money building and selling cars (although by some other profit measures Tesla is profitable).</p>\n<p>During the earnings conference call on January 27, Musk also spoke about a shortage of batteries needed to power electric vehicles. He said that even with Tesla's own in-house supply of batteries and its planned expansion of battery production, the company is scrambling to find the batteries it wants to build more vehicles.</p>\n<p>\"The fundamental limit on electric vehicles right now, in general, is total availability of [battery] cells,\" he said.

He predicted, in a bold call, that bitcoin’s market value would be $100 trillion one day.\nSaylor’s comments on“Squawk Box”came as the price of bitcoin fell more than 10% on Tuesday, dipping below $50,000 per unit. The move lower took the market value of the world’s largest cryptocurrency back under $1 trillion, just a few days after the volatile digital asset eclipsed that level for the first time.\nHowever, bitcoin was still up 60% since the start of the year and has risen more than 360% in the last 12 months.\n“There’s a $500 trillion monetary planet and the outer layer is currency, then you’ve got stocks, bonds, real estate. There’s $10 trillion worth of gold in there, $1 trillion of bitcoin in there. Bitcoin is going to flip gold, and it’s going to subsume the entire gold market cap,” contended Saylor, who has become one of the most prominent evangelists for bitcoin since his enterprise software company began buying it in August.\n“Then it’s going to subsume negative-yielding sovereign debt and other monetary indexes until it grows to $100 trillion. Once it gets to $10 trillion, its volatility will be dramatically less,” Saylor said. “As it marches toward $100 trillion, you’re going to see the growth rates fall, the volatility fall, and it’s going to be a stabilizing influence in the entire financial system of the 21st century.”\nIn his addition to his company’s significant bitcoin holdings, Saylor told CNBC he also owns the digital coin in a personal capacity.\nBitcoin has been called “digital gold” by some crypto bulls, and they tout its ability to serve as a store of value due to the fact its total supply is capped at 21 million coins. Currently, there are 18.64 million coins in circulation,according to Coindesk. New bitcoins come onto the market as a reward for so-called miners, who use high-powered computers to verify transactions across the decentralized system.\nSaylor laid out his grand vision for bitcoin a day after Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen once again raised questions about the digital coin. Yellen said she was worried about its role in “illicit finance” and the energy consumption used to mine bitcoin.\n“It is a highly speculative asset and you know I think people should be aware it can be extremely volatile and I do worry about potential losses that investors can suffer,” Yellen, also a former Federal Reserve chair, added at Monday’s New York Times DealBook conference.\nIn an interview last week on CNBC, St. Louis Fed President James Bullard said he was not concerned about bitcoin’s potential to upend the U.S. dollar’s status as the world’s reserve currency.\n“I just think for Fed policy, it’s going to be a dollar economy as far as the eye can see — a dollar global economy really as far as the eye can see — and whether the gold price goes up or down, or the bitcoin price goes up or down, doesn’t really affect that,” Bullard said on “Squawk Box.”\nSaylor said he sees the demand for bitcoin growing in the coming years, not only from institutions but from individual people around the world, which would have the effect of pushing its value upward.\n“I think that you can expect that we’ll have a billion people storing their value, in essence a savings account, on a mobile device within five years and they’re going to want to use something like bitcoin,” he contended, describing it as “the dominant digital monetary network.”\nLast week, MicroStrategy completed its second convertible debt offering with the goal of using the net proceeds to buy bitcoin. The first debt sale came in at $650 million in December. The offering completed Friday generated roughly $1.03 billion in net proceeds, with the notes bearing a 0% coupon rate.\nMicroStrategy disclosed its first crypto purchase in August, putting existing cash on its balance sheet toward acquiring almost 21,500 bitcoins. The company owned nearly 72,000 bitcoin,as of a regulatory filing Feb. 2.At around $47,000 in Tuesday’s trading, that stake is worth nearly $3.4 billion.\nSaylor has argued companies should hold bitcoin as an investment, instead of holding cash or short-term government bonds, because the digital coin will generate far superior returns over the long term. In December, Saylor publicly encouraged Tesla CEO Elon Musk to do just that. Just over a month later, Tesla announced it bought $1.5 billion worth of bitcoin.\nSome have been skeptical about MicroStrategy’s push into bitcoin, particularly when it comes to issuing debt to finance additional purchases. In a late-January note to clients, Citi analyst Tyler Radke called it “aggressive” and a potential “deal-breaker for some software investors.”\nShares of MicroStrategy have taken off since the Virginia-based company began acquiring bitcoin as investors looked for ways to gain exposure to the digital coin. The stock traded around $120 in early August before the firm’s entrance into the crypto space was made public, but began rallying throughout the fall and into 2021.\nMicroStrategy’s stock hit its highest level since the dot-com boom on Feb. 9, reaching $1,315 per share. It’s pulled back sharply in recent days, and it fell about 20% in Tuesday’s session to around $700 per share. Still, MicroStrategy has nearly doubled year to date and it’s up roughly 400% in the past 12 months.\nAs bitcoin prices dropped, Tesla shares also suffered a major downturn, losing as much as 13% in early Tuesday trading, before paring those losses. The automaker’s decline sent the stock negative for 2021. Tesla sank more than 8.5% on Monday after dipping Thursday and Friday. However, even with its four-day slide, Tesla was still up 275% in the past 12 months.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":187,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":363651013,"gmtCreate":1614136429332,"gmtModify":1704888562601,"author":{"id":"3575440270659998","authorId":"3575440270659998","authorIdStr":"3575440270659998","name":"Arriwhite","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d88fef0c0d900a23edd6c62c7747d1a7","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3575440270659998"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Yeah","listText":"Yeah","text":"Yeah","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/363651013","repostId":"1106446066","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":124,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0}],"lives":[]}
