what’s the correct order of events?

Do you install the fast charger before or after you start a YouTube “?? My Tesla” channel?
“Hi guys! LakeOhm (formerly Lakebum) here! This week I got a question from PelzerPete who asks “what would happen if you sat in the passenger seat and reversed through the CFA drivethru using autopilot”. Good question Pete, that’s just what we will answer today in (lightning bolt graphics and cheesy royalty-free Boston knock-off riff) LAKEOHMS LAIR”

What makes you think I don’t already have one?

Just because I don’t have a Tesla yet doesn’t mean I can’t virtue signal about the environment by smugly attempting to convince you that my interest in Tesla’s has nothing to do with the face melting acceleration, and everything to do with saving the planet.
I’ll also have to get through the 45 minute episodes where I ceramic coat it In front of the Biltmore House while acting like I live there, and covering up all the chrome as my first “mod”.

He's an ahole but he doesn't let excuses keep him from delivering the product he has in mind. Rubs a ton of people the wrong way and I'm sure it's terrible working for him. However, working in an industry where there is no dynamic leadership that sets a vision then executes on it I can't say I'd like to give working in that environment a try.

Telsa shouldn’t keep dropping.

I had bought at 430 and sold at 920 before the drop. Just rebought at 640. They are selling 15 million shares at 767 to investors. Elon buying 10 million himself. This will drive the stock at least back up to around that number. Imo. I could be completely wrong

I'd hold off for at least a week. Here's why......
Feb 28, 2020, 8:27 PM
|

We're not testing people currently. The guidelines up until today for even qualifying for a test was if you'd been to China or around someone from China recently. But someone from Northern Italy, Japan, South Korea, etc.....no prob. No danger. No testing. Furthermore the CDC fugged up the testing kits they sent out. So new ones supposedly arrived in 22 states today. We've tested like 450 people for coronavirus through yesterday. Ridiculous.
Nope. When the states get these tests, and start testing, the markets may not like what they see. This thing can literally be spreading everywhere and until a hospital gets swamped or something, we will never know.
Trump is trying to save the market. I'd hold off for truth. Our numbers are as BS as the Chinese given the incompetence, which I think is deliberate.

Timing the bottom too soon and leaving a little on the table. I don’t see any situation where a blue-chip at 15+% is a bad bet right now though.

You are right. We are not testing at all hardly. 459 tested so far. Nice of them to give us updates:
"This page will be updated regularly on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays. Numbers close out at 4 p.m. the day before reporting."
I guess those cutbacks...
I guess there is no need to update if you aren't testing people. There really can't be many confirmed cases. Who knows we may be like the diamond princess. They had really low numbers until they started testing people.
https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/cases-in-us.html Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) See the number of people under investigation (PUIs) in the United States and states with confirmed cases of Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19).

3 new cases of unknown origin in Washington, Oregon
Feb 29, 2020, 10:07 AM
|

and California. Washington and Oregon did their own tests and made the announcement. They don't even have CDC test results yet. One in Cali was confirmed by the CDC after 9 days and 2 attempts to request testing.
CDC requires states administer CDC tests. THEIR tests sucked, and are useless. States are breaking bureaucratic BS protocol and testing now on their own. Or SOME are, like Oregon and Washington.
Here's a guy who returned from Tokyo with all the symptoms in NYC. CDC refused to even test him. Just sent him home. He's quarantining himself, even though there is no requirement for it. New York is refusing to do their own tests, instead waiting for the useless CDC.
https://abc7ny.com/5974999/
This is the same thing China has done and why their numbers, to this day, are BS. If you're not tested, you're not diagnosed. Therefore if you die, oh well, must be pneumonia. Just think about it. A nation with over a BILLION people, 2nd largest economy on Earth, and 5,000 people get sick and a few hundred die, and they shutter the entire place. Stop all air travel. Quarantine whole cities and provinces. The reaction does not match the numbers. I'd wager millions of Chinese people have had this, and hundreds of thousands have died. Sadly, we are taking the same approach. Our STATES WILL NOT STAND FOR THIS. This goes back to my republic versus democracy rant. Our republic will deal with this disease, not our federal government. Our states, cities, counties, towns, and neighbors will deal with this, not our federal officials who play with our tax dollars.

Long term you should be good. I put some more in an S&P 500 index fund yesterday. I won't touch it though for 20 more years or so if I live that long. That said, the market supposedly has at least 10% more to drop "they" say. This is going to be a rough next year or two for corporate earnings.

I have never successfully timed the market
Feb 29, 2020, 7:15 AM
|

Monday would be a good time to buy. I did convert 20% of my equities to bonds at the end of last year, but that wasn't to buy stocks. That was more to preserve cash if I need it as I get closer to retirement.
I have always had a long term outlook and never have sold to hang on to cash waiting for a buying opportunity. I may keep a few percent cash at most and have been dollar cost averaging for over 30 years.
Ride em up and ride em down is what I do.

There will be more buying Monday. I bought some things yesterday after hours and they are already up. Apple, Microsoft, Tesla, Zoom (If global virus more people will use video conferencing) . But who knows if the market has bottomed. I read 2 articles yesterday that said it probably had and would as it rallied Friday end of day.
But the press is really pushing Coronavirus again this weekend w more American cases so market could still bottom out more imo. Idk.

Make sure to buy the correct Zoom.

ZOOM has been essentially out of business since 2011 but saw a rise in its stock price from people buying the wrong stock.
