@amuse No more traitors 👆 Shame traitors Vote traitors out of power Pass it on

@johnanonle @bidenlover99 @TeslaLoverGirls @grok is FSD super supervised available in China

@DaySamual39307 @bidenlover99 @TeslaLoverGirls They're Chinese plates and FSD is available there

Tesla’s brakes and maneuverability are truly outstanding. The car’s advanced Automatic Emergency Braking and precise handling helped prevent a serious accident. $TSLA

What evidence is there of Elon Musk’s hard work on marketing & sales of Tesla 3s and Ys? I voted for the package as well, but how does money motivate someone already worth an insane amount of money? 600 to 800 bb He owns more of SpaceX than Tesla estimated to IPO at $1.5TT. I believe it’s fair to ask if Musk is sufficiently focused on restoring sales & profit growth to Tesla. How long do you think the majority of investors will tolerate pedestrian growth & 300 plus PE? Either growth returns or PE collapses.

We just gave him every incentive to more than deliver, and I can't think of anyone who works harder than Elon. If you "cannot accept" where the stock is today, you have two choices: 1) fly to Iran and single handedly open the Strait of Hormuz, or 2) sell your stock and live a much better life for yourself.

Tesla's Q1 delivery consensus was 365,645 and they delivered 358,023. So they were off by 7,622 units. Maybe about $76 million in earnings less than expected. Disappointing, but not as dramatic as everyone is making it out to be. They made more BEVs than anyone else on Earth.

@bidenlover99 @johnanonle @TeslaLoverGirls My apologies to the internet for not magnifying and looking more closely. Is FSD available in this Asian country?

@johnanonle @DaySamual39307 @TeslaLoverGirls Your European plate doesn't say ㊗️㊙️🈳🈳🈺🉑🐲🐲🐲 on the back?

@JCChristopher @wholemars We cannot accept tough as an excuse REALITY DOSE We need a war mode CEO focused on justifying a 300x PE with GROWTH

@wholemars Selling BEVs in the USA is literally one of the toughest things to do right now, beyond the 9-10% of us who have adopted. We need Cybercab and robotaxi.

How does Coca Cola growth justify 300x PE? REALITY DOSE pedestrian growth is a crisis. 300x PE cannot be justified without a credible evidence of explosive growth, not just handwaving about autonomy Autonomous vehicles to date = 9. Isn’t that right @grok. We need war mode CEO focused on sales growth

Irrelevant Without credible evidence of rapid sales and profit growth, the market will not support 100x multiples. That is REALITY. This is a crisis, and we need a war mode CEO focused on sales & marketing. Is that Elon Musk? Musk says autonomy is key to valuation, and we start the 2Q with 9 autonomous vehicles.

For anyone that thinks Tesla is sucking in EV sales… you should take a look at Q1 2026 pure EV deliveries of other companies: • Tesla: 358,023 (*official today*) • BYD: 310,389 • NIO: 83,465 • XPeng: 62,682 • GM: ~25,900 • Rivian: 10,365 • Ford: 6,860 • Lucid: ~4,985

@bidenlover99 @TeslaLoverGirls European plates, so FSD supervised impossible

@DaySamual39307 @TeslaLoverGirls Definitely not a great driver. Hopefully not FSD. They are doing full speed into a cloud of debris. Reckless...

@tnertz @Teslaconomics @grok Are there nine autonomous Robo taxis in Austin now?

@tnertz @Teslaconomics Woo hooo Happy dance At 12.5% annualized, that will be 18 in 6 years

Tesla Q1 2026 production & deliveries just came out. • Produced 408,386 vehicles • Delivered 358,023 vehicles (+6.3% YoY) • Energy storage: 8.8 GWh Not really important tbh, but Wall Street was expecting 365,645 deliveries. The fact is, there are 300K+ new AI robots on wheels roaming the streets around the world learning the real world for FSD/Robotaxis and saving lives, which no other company is doing today at this scale and at a profit. Just to put things into perspective of how far Tesla has come… this is Tesla’s historic Q1 deliveries: • Q1 2026: 358,023 (+6.3%) • Q1 2025: 336,681 (-13.0%) • Q1 2024: 386,810 (-8.5%) • Q1 2023: 422,875 (+36.4%) • Q1 2022: 310,048 (+67.8%) • Q1 2021: 184,800 (+109%) • Q1 2020: 88,400 (+40%) • Q1 2019: ~63,000 (+110%) • Q1 2018: 29,980 (+20%) • Q1 2017: ~25,000 (+69%) • Q1 2016: 14,820 (+48%) • Q1 2015: 10,030 (+55%) • Q1 2014: 6,457 Massive congratulations to the Tesla team for your incredible work and commitment to sustainable energy every single day! Go Tesla!

@SawyerMerritt We need a war mode CEO focused on sales.

BREAKING: Tesla delivered 358,023 vehicles in Q1, up 6% YoY. Wall Street was expecting 365,600. Total Q1 production was 408,386 Tesla also says that they deployed 8.8GWh of energy storage in Q1 2026.

MAJOR PROBLEM YoY sales only up 6% YoY Down 14% since last quarter Focus on Tesla sales/marketing, not the mistakes of competition. Only eight autonomous vehicles in the Tesla fleet starting the second quarter. That’s deplorable, that’s a major problem. SHAREHOLDERS need a war mode CEO focused on increasing sales NOW.

Major problem

Coke a Cola style growth. Time for Elon to sleep in the floor with sales & marketing staff. The market will not sustain hundred plus PE’s with this kind of growth trend. This is a crisis. We need a war mode Elon Musk on improving sales and marketing. Stop whistling past the graveyard, talking about Norway, and other isolated bright spots

Tesla reports production of 408,386 and deliveries of 358,023 for 26Q1. The growth in deliveries is -14.4% QoQ and +6.3% YoY. The Tesla fleet reaches 9.2m cars. $TSLA

This is not the great execution standard Elon established for himself. Only 8 autonomous vehicles, and sales dropping YoY. You cannot hold a 100 plus PE without visible growth trends. Sleep on the floor with your sales & marketing staff Elon Musk!!!!!

Rivian just won a major victory for direct to consumer sales in Washington state, and it may offer a blueprint for how we can finally break the insane dealer monopoly in the U.S. First off, for those who don't know, it's actually illegal for electric car startups to sell their cars directly to consumers online in most states. You can sell a Tesla anywhere in China, but not in all 50 states. That's so crazy to me! Car dealerships often have a monopoly by state law that prevents manufacturers from selling directly. In some cases Tesla has had to actually sell cars on native America registrations to get around state law 🤦 This legal monopoly hurts consumers. Most people who buy cars online say it was the best car buying experience of their life. They love not having to sit in a dealership, being able to review pricing and financing clearly on their own terms, and knowing they're getting a fair price without haggling. If dealers offer better service and prices, consumers will continue to go to their local auto dealer. But they shouldn't be insulated from competition from brands that want to sell online, they should compete and try and offer a better service. That kind of competition pushes prices down and benefits consumers in a way that is sorely needed with today's affordability crisis. Rivian has been battling with Washington state and their car dealerships for years over their direct sales model. Then they dropped a bomb on the discussions. They threatened to put an initiative on the ballot that would allow people to vote themselves on whether to allow direct car sales. The dealers shit their pants. Rivian's polling showed over 70% of consumers supported direct to consumer sales. If voters approved the measure, it wouldn't just be Rivian and Lucid that were allowed to sell directly — any brand would be able to sell directly, including potentially Chinese EVs in the future, dealers worried. The dealerships quickly did a 180 and came to the table. Not only did they drop their opposition to allowing Rivian and Lucid to sell directly, they ended up actually supporting the new measure. They realized it would be better to support this rule, which just applies to existing automakers like Tesla, Rivian and Lucid, but not to newcomers like Scout or Chinese EVs that may want to sell directly in the future. Once Rivian got what they wanted, they abandoned the plan for the ballot measure. There are other states that allow voter ballot initiatives but ban direct to consumer auto sales, including Arkansas, Ohio, Oklahoma, Montana, Nebraska, and South Dakota. Those states could be Rivian's next targets. I applaud Rivian's efforts here and hope to see American EV startups like Tesla, Lucid and Rivian work together to make sure consumers have the freedom to choose not to go to a dealership. What would really be great is if we could get federal legislation giving consumers this right across all 50 states in one shot. We need to modernize these antiquated laws in our country. Nobody is going to buy a self-driving car from a car dealership. Barring federal intervention, we need lawmakers in all 50 states to bring car ownership into the 21st century here.

@verdadcap Yeah, they don’t like that mailto:editor@thedailyshot.com Bought your book. Have you looked into Bessenbinder’s work? Arizona State University professor

@DaySamual39307 I didn't see the Daily Shot? Can you send to me?

Based on a lineage study of 447,000 English people from 1600–2026, the descendants of the wealthy remain wealthy after five generations, and can expect to have above-average wealth for 10–12 generations (300–360 years)

@verdadcap BTW, congratulations on making it on to The Daily Shot

@verdadcap I thought I was going to hate this post reading the headline, but you are spot on
