My conversation with snack industry LEGEND Josh Schroeter, the Founder and CEO of South 40 Snacks. South 40 Snacks is a Seattle-based snack startup selling fruit and nut bars. I've been invested in the company for almost 4 years now and have watched them grow from $1.5M in sales to ~$12M this year. I wanted to talk to Josh on HyperChange about what it's like to build a snack brand and why he thought he was going to be able to disrupt the nut bar category against giants like KIND bar and Peter Rahal's new David Bar. I'm a big fan of the snacks, especially the pistachio bar, mango bar and c cashews, I recommend you give South 40 a try!South 40 Snacks website: https://south40snacks.com/0:00 Intro0:55 The Snack Industry3:22 How Sahale Snacks Disrupted Trail Mix4:07 South's 40's Transparency & Simplicity5:33 What You See Is What You Eat8:22 Giant-Sized Cashews8:56 Telling The Sustainability Story9:41 South 40 Snacks Nut Bars 10:39 The David Bar by Peter Rahal11:24 Nut Bar for the Mainstream12:18 Fruit Bars16:22 Billion Dollar Snack Brand19:20 How Social Media Has Changed Marketing20:35 Innovative Distribution Strategy22:22 Why Are You Focused on Snack Bars?23:39 Upcoming Snack Bars From South 4026:05 Global Expansion26:58 Scaling Artisanal27:52 Natural Food RevolutionMy X:   / gfilche  HyperChange Patreon :)   / hyperchange   Disclaimer: I'm an invested in South 40 Snacks persoanlly and through my Venture Capital Firm HyperGuap.

One of my most controversial ideas about Tesla yet .... will they enter the drone business, possibly in a collab with SpaceX? As discussions heat up between Elon Musk and Naval about the US falling behind in drone manufacturing capabilities (and the national security concerns that come with that) the obvious question arises, will Elon just fix this problem himself? Tesla has the battery, motor and manufacturing tech to pull it off, but is that the future we believe in?? What are your thoughts?My theory is Elon won't do drones if he doesn't own majority/more of Tesla.My X:   / gfilche  HyperChange Patreon :)   / hyperchange   Disclaimer: I'm long Tesla stock and nothing in this show is financial advice.

Asking the 21 year-old investing wiz Henry Invests about his thoughts on Tesla stock. We discuss the robotaxi launch and how Elon's politics and America party ambitions will effect the company.

My conversation with Henry Invests from Maple Tree Capital. This up and coming 21 year-old financial influencer has made a name for himself covering Upstart stock. The software company uses AI to determine if customers are worth lending too, essentially creating it's own algorithm that is more accurate than the FICO score. Henry pitches us the stock and explains his bullcase. He believe Upstart could eventually be a $1,000 stock, if not more, if they can fulfill their potential as the AI credit platform of the future.

Bringing back the podcast with a BANGER episode featuring Sam Korus of ARK Invest and Aaron Burnett of Mach33 research. They have teamed up to release potentially the most thorough and in-depth valuation model of SpaceX ever made public. Breaking down the value of Starlink vs the Launch business and how Mars takes the potential valuation to $10T and beyond.

G 2 a Milly update! The show where I open-source building my investment portfolio. In today's update, I discuss cashing out of Airbnb and Coinbase stock to move into Bitcoin. I've been slowly nibbling on Tesla shares but am hesitant to go all-in (despite amazing potential) because of the volatility around the Robotaxi ramp. Bitcoin feels like a safe/almost cash like place to keep my capital for now.

Tesla's Q2 2025 Delivery & Production report is hot off the press! Just released this morning, Tesla announced 384,000 deliveries for the quarter and production of 410,000. This was better than the 365,000 in prediction markets, and the stock is rallying ~4% on the news. I thought the numbers we're ok, it was nice to see a rebound from Q1, but the year over year declines from Q2 last year and Q2 23 were real. My theory is as Robotaxi ramps up it will begin to organically drive demand for Tesla vehicles.

Sam Korus from ARK Invest joins the show to give his initial take on Tesla's Robotaxi launch in Austin, and the expectations for a broader rollout. We were recording a SpaceX episode (will be released soon)m but I couldn't resist asking him about Tesla's Robotaxi launch. This was our quick discussion about how the first Robotaxi rides have gone so far, and the JUST announced first autonomous Tesla delivery to a customer somewhere in Texas. Exciting times! Shoutout to Sam, hope to get him on a full podcast soon!!Sam Korus on X: https://x.com/skorusARKMy X:   / gfilche  HyperChange Patreon :)   / hyperchange   Disclaimer: I'm invested in Tesla, nothing in this show is financial advice.

We're just a couple weeks away from Tesla's Q2 delivery report. Prediction market Kalshi is estimating deliveries of 358,000 for the quarter (would represent a 19% decline from 444,000 in Q2 last year). But the truth is ... no one seems to care about Tesla's deliveries. All eyes are on the Robotaxi launch coming late in June (tentatively). The new metric to focus on will be Robotaxi Rides not Cars Delivered. We are entering a new era for Tesla!

Everyone's hyped on OpenAI, ChatGPT, Grok, XAI, etc ... but the company powering them all is making all the guap. Nvidia has printed over $100B in AI profits in the last 6 quarters alone and is showing now signs of stopping. Top-line growth was 69% last quarter. Despite this rapid growth and dominance in AI, Nvidia trades for 43X trailing earnings, and maybe around 30X forward earnings (depending on growth). This is nowhere near bubble territory. With Owner/Operator/Founder Jensen Huang continuing to innovate at a breakneck pace, why is the market skeptical this growth will continue? Isn't the AI revolution just getting started? Maybe it's because Nvidia relies on TSMC to make their chips and Grok/ChatGPT to build the UI for consumers ... let me know your thoughts on Nvidia stock in the comments below.

WOW. The Big Beautiful Bill has opened up an incredible rift between Elon Musk and Donald Trump. In just the past few hours things have escalated to an insane level. The bromance is over, and they appear to be in all out war/enemies. This is a time of peak uncertainty for Tesla shareholders, SpaceX government programs .. and frankly, American politics as a whole. Elon is accusing Trump of hiding the Epstien files because he's in them, and so much more drama. The situation appears to be heating up by the second.The root of the issues stem from Elon Musk's concern America is going bankrupt and the new bill Republicans are passing that will balloon spending. This is going directly against all his work for DOGE and what Donald Trump was elected to do. So now the beef is on. I'm very curious what will happen next & wishing the best for Tesla, SpaceX, Elon and America.

We are less than two weeks away June, when Tesla will be launching its Robotaxi network in Austin, Texas! This marks an exciting new chapter for the company as they begin to rollout an autonomous vehicle service. Elon Musk just went on TV today saying he expects there to be 1,000 Tesla robotaxis within just a few months of launch. This could quickly accelerate Tesla's revenue growth. In addition, Optimus continues to make rapid progress. The potential for Cybercab's to deliver packages with Optimus is very exciting and may be here sooner than we think. I'm getting more excited about Tesla, and FOMO is ramping for not having enough shares as they company enters this exciting new growth phase. Ron Baron said they are on the verge of big profits!! We'll see ...

I sit down with Public Co-Founder/CEO Jannick Malling to discuss the company's breakout 2024, competing with Robinhood, surviving the market/startup crash of 2021/2022, crypto, a new bond offering & so much more! I've been working with Public for years and it's been impressive to see them hit 1M users and continue to double revenue every year (even through the market downturn).

Markets were down huge today on fears of a trade war and recession. Tesla stock traded down 15% to ~$221 per share, it's lowest point of the year. Drama around Elon Musk continues to heat up (per usual), and investors are worried it could impact near term sales. I wanted to share my thoughts as a long term investor holding through turbulent times. Let me know what you think in the comments below!!

Tesla stock's volatility has been heating up. After a massive run post-election, shares are settling back down as markets correct, and Elon Musk protests erupt at Tesla stores (and even SpaceX) across the US. The question on everyones mind is how this sentiment will affect vehicle sales, especially in the US and Europe. This comes at fascinating time for Tesla, with the Robotaxi launch in Austin just months away, and Optimus making more progress than ever. Will excitement about these new products be able to hold the stock up through a period of depressed earnings and cashflow (if that were to happen) and the robotaxi ramp? What are your thoughts??

At Tesla's AI day a few years ago Elon Musk unveiled Optimus, Tesla's humanoid robot program. This has quickly become an even more exciting long-term bull thesis than even the Cyercab, as Elon says it will make Tesla the world's most valuable company by far. In this Bros, Brews and Big Ideas I sit down with Aidan to analyze Tesla's Optimus, and the much hyped Figure Robot, which has created a splash on social media and is let by Bret Adcock. Figure claims to be bringing robots into the home later this year or next, while Tesla plans to have 1,000+ robots walking around its factory this year. Who is ahead in this race? Is Figure to be taken seriously at all? Let me know what you think in the comments below.

Bros, Brews & Big Ideas. Schemin live from Austin, Texas, we break down the future of the self-driving car economy. How Tesla's Cybercab launch in June of this year could quickly scale into millions of rides and become a bigger network than Waymo. Tesla's vertically integrated approach could end up being a major pricing advantage over Waymo who is buying 3rd party cars, using Uber's network, etc ... What are your thoughts on the future of the self-driving revolution? When will Tesla surpass Waymo in terms of Autonomous rides, if ever? Let us know your prediction in the comments below.

A very bittersweet moment. With 90% of my personal capital invested in Tesla & SpaceX (Elon Musk companies), and needing cash to pay rent/my bills in the next 6 months I made the extremely difficult decision to sell a chunk (about 10%) of my Tesla holdings. This comes at a time where I'm more bullish on the companies long term future than ever with Cybercab and Optimus. But with the reality of the world's geopolitical situation and Elon's government involvement ... I realized I would feel a lot better to sell some stock now to have cash rather than be forced to sell in 6 months at a potentially lower price. As always this is not financial advice, just me documenting my investing journey. My support for Tesla, it's employees, and mission is stronger than ever, but personal financial freedom and living stress free is the most important thing in life. Don't really know what to say, because it bums me out so much to make this video, but had to keep it real with y'all.

After a two weeks off-grid I was rattled to see news across social media of Tesla protests and general Elon Musk haters. Beyond processing being sad at all the negative energy in the world, I thought it was an important time to think rationally about the impact that Elon's foray into politics will have on Tesla's sales (especially in USA and Europe) in the short term. Overall, I think we may be in for a period of volatility for the next 6 months to a year, especially as DOGE makes dramatic cuts to government spending. But, looming positively on the horizon is the Cybercab / Robotaxi network ... just 5 months away from being a reality, and one of the most consequential events in Tesla History. With Optimus trailing shortly behind. What are your thoughts on Tesla stock, and the impact of Elon Musk haters?

Palantir stock has soared to over $100 per share, representing a $250B+ valuation. Is Palantir stock a bubble? Or is it the next great AI Company? Well now, rumors are swirling that a contract with DOGE could be brewing and be driving the stock's metoric rise. Also there is an interesting connection between JD Vance, Peter Thiel and Alex Karp that is adding fuel to the speculation. What are your thoughts? Will Palantir have a big role in the new US DOGE government??

Palantir stock exploded to $103/share on the back of its Q4 2024 earnings report and guidance. This represents a $258B valuation and a whopping 90X price/revenue. Strong AI numbers have accelerated topline growth to 36% in 2024, but guidance implied growth slowing to 31% in 2025. What are your thoughts? Can Alex Karp take Palantir all the way? Is it crazy overvalued?? Has Palantirs hype as an AI stock gone too far?? Palantir Q4 earnings report: https://investors.palantir.com/news-d...

It was a legendary Tesla conference call!! Elon Musk sounded insanely focused and dialed in as he explained Tesla is planning to launch an self-driving robotaxi service in Austin in June of THIS YEAR. He also clarified he expects Tesla to launch full self driving in many regions across the US in 2025. Additionally, with Optimus and Cybercab Elon retierates he believes not only that Tesla will be the world's most valuable company ... but more valuable than the world's next 5 largest companies combined. Wow. As crazy as it sounds, it just might be true! What are your thoughts on the call? I left feeling very very bullish, feeling the confidence from Elon and the team. 0:00 Intro 0:44 Elon Opening Remarks 13:29 SAY Retail Questions 22:37 Analyst Questions 25:04 Gali Final Thoughts/Rant My X:   / gfilche   HyperChange Patreon :)   / hyperchange   Disclaimer: I'm long Tesla stock and nothing in this show is financial advice. Here are my notes from the conference call (note, may not be accurate!!): Tesla Q4 2024 Earnings Call Notes INTRO- ELON OPENING REMARKS -Q4 set record, delivered cars at rate of almost 2M cars/year -Model Y best-selling vehicle of any kind on earth (elon focused and talking quickly) -10Xing on autonomy, not doubling -many investments made this year that will bear immense fruit in the future, for AI -see a path for Tesla to the worlds most valuable company by far, worth more than the next 5 companies combined, difficult but achievable path -overwhelmingly due to autonomous vehicles and autonomous robots -setting up for an epic 2026, and ridiculously good 2027 and 2028 -meeting FSD now is like meeting a toddler -human intuition is linear, we're seeing exponential progress -#1 recommendation is try it -typical passenger car has 10 hours of use out of 168, when its autonomous, itll be used for 55 hours a week … can deliver packages in the middle of thenight, or supply restaurants, all hours of the day or night. 5X increase in utility -more on self driving, continued improvements in safety numbers, much safer to use FSD -V14 will be another big step from V13 -launched CORTEX training cluster at Giga Austin, big step for FSD, continue to invest in training needs -Optimus training needs are about 10X what's needed for the car -cost of training is dropping dramatically over time -Optimus has potential to be north of $10T in revenue, can put a lot training compute into that situation, even pumping $500B into it would be a good deal -future very different from the past, incredible inflection point in human history -proof is in the pudding -launching in June this year in Austin, already have cars moving autonomously in Fremont, thousands of cars per day driving, soon in Austin then elsewhere in the world -toe in the water at first to make sure everything is cool, but we have a general solution for autonomy , then put a few more toes, then a foot. Safety of the general public and those in the car as the top priority -with regard to Optimus, making insane revenue projections that sound insane, i realize that. But i think they will prove to be accurate -several thousand bots made this year, they will be doing useful things by the end of this year, im confidence, production design one at the tesla factories, then will learn for production design two -ramp optimus production faster than anything has ever launched, doesn't take very many years before we'er making 100M of these things per year , 500% growth per year -tried using all these suppliers to get it to build Optimus, but nothing worked, had to build it internally from first principles, the hand is increibdle -long term Optimus will be the value of the company -back to Energy,/earth, -energy storage is a big deal, becoming more important, enables far greater energy output to the grid than is currently possible. -grid has no storage, designed for peak storage, lots of waste -once you have grid energy storage, the potential of the grid is unlocked, at least double -this will drive demand of battery packs as to as much as we can possibly make -shanghai factory starting operation, starting another factory -cant shoot our selves in the foot, battery capacity can only go into storage or mobility, so always making that tradeoff -demand for total Gigawatt hours for batteries, transportation or stationary will grow in a very big way over time 2025 a pivotal year for tesla, launch of full self driving, biggest year in tesla history, maybe even bigger than first car or model s, 3 or y … probably most important year in tesla's history I don't even know who is in 2nd place in real world AI, would need a telescope to see them for rest of notes see pinned comment below!!!

Tesla has released Q4 2024 earnings!! The financial results were a little disappointing, but the guidance of "volume production" for Cybercab in 2026 has investors excited, with shares jumping back above $400 after hours.

Tesla stock closed the day at $428 per share, representing a valuation of $1.5T. Reflecting on this milestone, I wanted to analyze what Tesla's financials were and what would be needed to justify a valuation of this level, and beyond. My high level theory is, Tesla is in a very unique spot. The core business is likely to generate $9B in GAAP operating income for the full year of 2024. Based on today's closing price, that is a valuation of 167X price/earnings. A little steep. Buying at today's $1.5T price implies an expected valuation of $3-5T in the future (a potential double or triple on your money). To justify this, Tesla will need about $100B in earnings. So that is my questions? When does Tesla hit this number? How fast do Cybercab & Optimus contribute to the company's earnings and cashflow? Will the market continue keeping an Elon Musk premium on the stock forever, or could it decrease? Let me know what you think in the comments below!

Tesla's Q4 2024 deliveries are hot off the press. Tesla delivered 495,000 cars in Q4, and just under 1.8M for the full year. Additionally, it was a huge quarter and year for energy storage with deployments hitting 11GWh in Q4. The stock was down about 6% on these numbers, after its huge run up in the final months of 2024. What are your thoughts on the numbers? Cybertruck weaker than expected? Nothing matters with Cybercab around the corner? Semi ramping next year? Let me know in the comments below.

Elon Musk is the leader of 6 major companies changing our world: Tesla, SpaceX, X (formerly Twitter), XAI, Neuralink and The Boring Company. Today his companies are valued between $1.5-$2.5T depending on who you ask, and we think they are on track to be worth $100+ when it's all said and done. This is the Roman Empire of Capitalism, being built before our eyes. In this episode, me and Aidan break down all of Elon's companies one by one and explain why he started them and the impact they are making. From Tesla's journey in making EVs mainstream, to now getting ready for self-driving. SpaceX's incredible breakthrough of the resuable rocket, Neuralinks first brain chip patient, XAI competing with OpenAI and raising $6B, X's transformation into the global town square ... and SO MUCH MORE.

A new era of HyperChange is upon; The American Technological Renaissance. In this long-form podcast, we discuss our optimism surrounding the potential of using technology to improve our daily lives. We hold nothing back in this episode, covering Elon Musk's role in the new American government under Donald Trump, the idea of DOGE (Department of Government Efficiency), what that means for the future of American builders and innovation in our country. We discuss Super-Intelligence AI apps like Grok, and ChatGPT, Tesla's dominance in self driving cars and humanoid robots, SpaceX's ushering in of the new space age where we return to the moon, Bryan Johnson living forever, the potential of gene editing, fixing our food system, how Bitcoin and crypto are changing fiat currencies, and so much more.

Rivian Q3 results have arrived! Revenues dipped below $1B/quarter for the first time since 2023, and gross margins got even worse to negative 45%. The company is still guiding for positive gross margins in Q4 2024 which would be a major win for the company, and I'd be extremely impressed if they hit. My biggest concern when looking at the stock is the sharecount is increasing at an accelerating pace. Up to 1,014M shares in Q3, up 6.5% in just a year. This could accelerate if the share price doesn't go up, causing a dilution spiral.

Airbnb Q3 2024 results are hot off the press! Revenue grew 10% to $3.7B (all time high), and the company is planning to launch 1-2 new $1B+ revenue businesses next year, and every year going forward. On the conference call Brian Chesky kept comparing Airbnb today to Amazon when they were selling just books. Chesky sees the company expanding well beyond travel into new products and services. This will mean investments in growth will ramp next year. Airbnb is moving to be on offense and growth mode, and exciting inflection point. Let me know what you think in the comments below! $ABNB

Donald Trump has just won the US Presidential election. Tesla stock is up 15% to its highest level in more than a year. What does this new American era mean for Tesla investors? A lot of the regulatory scrutiny (FSD, Elon's Pay Package) seems like it will go away. The regulatory approval path for FSD / Cybercab got way easier. And mainly, I think investors are just hyped because it means Elon and Tesla will be left alone to execute on their massive vision. There will be volatility, and it's way to early to tell how this will all play out. But things are shaping up to be a very bright future if Elon can work well with the new Trump administration.

Interview with Amit (aka ‪@amitinvesting‬ ), where we discuss Palantir's valuation and growth prospects, I pitch him on Airbnb stock, we talk about Tesla's Optimus bot, the upcoming election effect on markets and finally on Robinhood stock. It was a blast to scheme with Amit, who does livestreams on his channel for the market open. He has also become the voice of retail shareholders for Robinhood and Palantir and interviewed both CEOs.

Tesla stock soared 21% today after a monster Q3 earnings beat. It was a big day for the portfolio. But something wasn't right ... I was still stressing because of my Airbnb options position. So I had to make the tough call to sell my options for a small gain and roll the position into plain, old, boring Airbnb equity. A prudent move in the long term I believe, and one that will serve my sanity. I realize I've been flip flopping like crazy with options, but that is what it is.

With US election just two weeks away, tensions are heating up. This could drive significant market volatility in the short term.

Farzad Mesbahi comes on the channel to discuss Tesla's 10/10 event, the Cybercab, Robovan, Optimus and potentially something even bigger that the company didn't reveal on 10/10 ... a new affordable Tesla model that is set to enter production sometime in the first half of 2025. We also discuss Tesla's plans to launch an unsupervised full self driving service in California and Texas sometime in 2025, and how that rollout could play out. Then we dive into the progress Tesla has shown with Optimus and if that may hit the market before Cybercab.

Tesla's 10/10 We, Robot event in Los Angeles, CA looked insane. After just watching the livestream, my FOMO is pumping. The haters will say the timeline is slow, but we just saw the future. Mini Cybertruck robotaxis, Cybercabs, and Robovans ... Optimus robots walking around the party and serving drinks. When will we see Tesla's first autonmous ride like Waymo ... that is still TBD. Sounding like 2025 from the event. Let me know what you think in the comments!! I own Tesla stock, nothing in this show is financial advice.

EVs are more like computers than cars. Early data is showing they can last 500,000+ miles, much further than the legacy gas cars they are disrupting. This is setting the state for an unprecedented change in the transportation economy, where ride sharing and autonomy become the norm over individual car ownership. With Waymo expanding rapidly, and Tesla on the cusp of a major self-driving announcement on 10/10, things are heating up ... This video is my conversation with the Founder and CEO of Amber, Joe Pak. He has a front row seat to the electric + autonomous revolution. Amber is building a quasi-insurance/warranty service specifically for EVs (or robots on wheels). Amber basically offers healthcare to your electric car or robot.The startup has just expanded its EV extended warranty products for Teslas, from 11 to 47 states. The company continues to expand rapidly and you can find the latest on their website.

The G 2 a Milly series continues!! Your boy is getting lucky, right now the portfolio is up 24.5% vs 11.7% for the S&P in the same period. In this episode I give an update on my thoughts on Tesla (and how I've been buying since the last portfolio update), and my favorite new stock, Airbnb! I go deep on my love for Airbnb as a customer and why I think Brian Chesky is such a unique founder and why Airbnb may be still in its very early days. Let me know your feedback! It felt great to brush off the haters and give y'all an update!! Email me questions to hyperchangetv@gmail.com and I'll answer them for the show!!

Tesla's earnings are hot off the press! Revenue of $25.5B (+2.3%) and profits of $1.6B. On the earnings call CEO Elon Musk stressed the importance of FSD, and how its set to transform Tesla's business. He confirmed the Robotaxi unveiling will be on 10/10, and provided an update on Optimus, saying it will begin Version 1 production in 2025, and Version 2 production to outside customers in 2026. Overall the call was a little boring. We are in a quiet/chill period for Tesla until 2025 when the cheaper model & robotaxi launch. I think a big catalyst may be brewing with another OEM licensing Tesla's FSD. What are your thoughts on the quarter??

How much do you love the crunch of a fresh bagel ... or the gooey inside of a fresh cinnamon roll

Back on the lake in 90+ degree heat in Seattle pondering Tesla stocks zoom to $250+ per share, and $800B valuation. In this episode I explain my metaphor for analyzing stocks as Pokemon to understand businesses, and layering that framework to understand Tesla. The trifecta of technology pillars that Elon & squad have developed (battery and driving train, self driving & mass market sustainable manufacturing) are combining to disrupt transportation, energy and soon labor (with the Optimus robot). Owning Tesla equity is owning a basket of technologies that are only getting more relevant and whose monetization is on the cusp or ramping dramatically. There is no other way I want to store my hard earned guap, and that is why Tesla stock is still my #1 position and largest investment holding (I've been a shareholder for 13+ years now). 0:00 Tesla Stock is ripping 1:15 Tesla as a Pokemon (my analogy) 2:28 Tesla Cybercab 8/8 Event 2:59 Tesla is the Ford, Chevron & Saudi Aramco of the green energy revolution 4:50 Shoutout Cybervessel 5:00 Why Tesla might be cheap at $800B 10:42 Tesla equity is owning a basket of technology that will create Trillions of value for society 13:23 Tesla's Growing Intrinsic Earnings Power 16:02 Tesla Energy (Megapack) potential 17:33 Tesla is the Americana Futura vibe we need My X:   / gfilche   HyperChange Patreon :)   / hyperchange   Disclaimer: I'm long Tesla (TSLA) stock.

Supercharging rant about how awesome it was to rent a Tesla on Turo and FSD to Grammy's house instead of taking the bus there. And it was only $240! ($290 including post trip supercharging reimbursement) vs ~$220 for the bus. And it took less time because the bus stops (and I didn't have to subway to the bus station). Shoutout Turo! On the drive while listening to BG2 podcast I had so many schemes about the Tesla ridesharing app combined with the Cybercab launch and how stoked I am

Elon Musk is betting on Tesla's autonomous future. The company is going all out to perfect its FSD technology and launch a Uber competitor/ride-sharing app later this year. After hearing Elon's excitement on FSD V12, on the conference call, mentioning the Cybercab, and stressing how important it was for investors to understand ... I've been doing homework on Tesla's self driving tech. I stumbled across the BG2 podcast, Episode 4 about Tesla's FSD v12, which does an INSANELY good job breaking down the incredible progress in Tesla's underlying tech, and how this is Tesla's 'ChatGPT' moment with real world AI. The BG2 podcast is hosted by Bill Gurley and Brad Gerstner. I highly recommend checking it out!!

Tesla Q1 2024 earnings are hot off the press! Tesla crushes it with a surprise $1B+ GAAP profit, strong guidance and and absolutely legendary conference call. Tesla is going all in on FSD with the new V12 rewrite, and its Robotaxi event on 8/8, where it looks like the 'Cybercab' will be unveiled. Elon Musk shocked Tesla fans and shareholders on the earnings call when he said the new cheaper vehicle would be ready for production as soon as late 2024 or early 2025. What are your thoughts on the quarter!? I was so stoked I bought $2,000 worth of Tesla stock today!! Also a little bit of a sad call at the end with head of IR Martin Viecha leaving the company.

Tesla stock falls to it's lowest in years, and I'm buying. Here's my rant on everything from the recent layoffs, Elon's motivation & pay package, to the Robotaxi launch on 8/8, Cybertruck progress, Austin factory expansion, FSD taking over & so much more!! I even read my Ode to Austin & Cybertruck Poem lol.

It's going to be a rough 2 years for Rivian. I decided to sell my tiny position, as I think dilution is coming. Rivian has only ~$9B in cash, and is burning $1.4B per quarter. The company can't make money on it's $100K R1S & R1T, so I'm not convinced they will be able to make a profit on the $45,000 R2. I love the company and brand, but the business is really struggling right now, and I'm worried shareholders could get screwed if dilution ramps up. Let me know your thoughts on Rivian, and the comparison to Tesla below!!
