Because he signed a legal agreement with the SEC saying he would get permission to tweet.
Buy quality. Keep calm and go long (and note to self STOP SELLING).

Unfortunately Musk raised money from the public in U.S. Imagine his Funding Secured claim were True.
According to SEC officials, Musk violated the rules of a settlement reached last fall regarding his use of Twitter to disclose financial information about the electric carmaker. As part of the settlement, Musk stepped down as chairman of the company, but remained its CEO. He also agreed to seek legal approval before tweeting anything that might materially impact Tesla, a stipulation of the deal Musk himself told 60 Minutes last December had not been implemented.

difference between Tesla and all other carmakers is that Tesla is a retail car seller, and all the others are wholesale car sellers.
Any analysis that compares Tesla to other brands and does not pay attention to these two facts is likely producing FUD
Bloomberg has been pointing to production of 80,000 Model 3’s this quarter
Model S & X have been at 25,000 per quarter for a few years
lower bound of 95,000 and an upper bound of 105,000 for total production this quarter.
If there were problems with S & X or Bloomberg was really off, it could be as low as 90,000

The only "small" caveat here. Production is NOT equal to sales, eh? The problem that "people want to buy but they do not have money for that " (c) Tusk is still here.

Let's wait and see what the Q1 delivery numbers are before we get super excited about production numbers (should be released any day now).SmartElectric wrote: ↑ https://cleantechnica.com/2019/04/02/te ... oing-24-7/
Thousands of cars delivered in a single weekend.
Doubt there is a demand problem.
Tesla doesn't even have leasing options yet on the Model 3, if they had trouble selling them, they'd offer leasing.

You can register VINS for cars that aren't yet produced. Thus, you can give the perception that you are making a lot of cars by registering lots of VINS but its a different story as to whether or not the VINS are actually assigned to the produced cars.alanbrenton wrote: ↑ How can VIN numbers be deceitful again? I read something about that.
Is that Bloomber tracker based on VINs?

Also one for @SmartElectricBecause of the lower than expected delivery volumes and several pricing adjustments, we expect Q1 net income to be negatively impacted. Even so, we ended the quarter with sufficient cash on hand.
Given that Tesla vehicle production currently occurs entirely from one factory in the San Francisco Bay Area, but must be delivered to customers all around the world, production could be significantly higher than deliveries, as it was this quarter, when production exceeded deliveries by 22%.
