Big news if it comes true. Apparently a target of 600 optimus bots a week by the end of the year. Note went out to suppliers.
That's going to be a big deal at some point.
Heard it before though and timeline predictions are always out.

Drive a Tesla, Elon fan. I hate he is always miss quoted.

He clearly said, by the end of a Neptune year.

Canada threatened 100% tariffs on Tesla. That was my major concern in regards to risk. Other countries may follow suit.

Might get back in cheap. Need to wait for the chaos to unfold though.

Would please the left and anti trump, in Canada and elsewhere, i see that coming in the EU soon, and maybe even here if the ALP has balls to do anything against the US.
The initially Elon enamoured left are still recovering at the shock of , ohhh horror, absence of X censorship ..how dares he not be woke....
Last protest in Germany against tesla factory did not even pretend to be anything but pure political.
I personally think it is not wise for a business figure to go publicly politically either way but it is courageous and he could not care less.
Will not change anything long term for the company,and a good opportunity to buy for the wiser maybe

I'm hoping it gets smashed down a bit so i can buy back in. But robotaxi is apparently rolling out soon so it may hold . I think the long term looks good but I want that crushing news that gives it a bigger hit in the short term. $250-280 I'd be happy. But beggers can't be choosers if it starts the next leg up. I think it's got time though, sentiment towards Elon needs to shift.

There's 3 billionaires I'm suss on: Elon, Sam altman and the palantir ceo Alex Karp. They remind me of snakeoil salesmen but have an army of genius and ability behind them. I'm always waiting for it to come crashing down.

I'm just hoping palantir doesn’t run higher. It's got a crowd behind it but to me it looked like it ran too hard. I want back in on that as well. $70 or lower would be good.

Tesla locks in Australian site for new battery refurbishment facility

Tesla locks in Australian site for new battery refurbishment facility​

One of Australia's largest battery storage facilities will soon house Tesla's new service and refurbishment centre, designed to renew high-voltage components.

Tesla will build its latest battery refurbishment facility – designed for service, repair, and restoration – about 200km south of Perth in the mining town of Collie, Western Australia.

The new factory is expected to service a wide assortment of high-voltage Tesla products, including batteries in vehicles such as the Model 3, Model Y, Model S, Model X, and Roadster, as well as the brand’s Powerwall home and Megapack commercial units.

Initially covering local batteries, it is expected to expand to cover the wider South-East Asia region in future.

The site will be built at French renewable energy company Neoen’s already-announced battery storage facility, with a completion date expected later this year.

The new facility will be powered by 560 Tesla Megapacks for a total storage capacity of 2250MWh, making it one of the largest battery sites in Australia.

The location of Collie is also significant, as it is where WA’s last remaining coal-fired power generators are operational.

The fossil-fuel-burning generators are expected to be shut down by the end of the decade in a transition to renewable energy sources.

The facility will also reportedly employ up to 50 local workers.

Western Australia Energy Minister Reece Whitby said at the announcement that “it makes sense that Tesla is here”.

“We have one of the world’s biggest standalone electricity grids in the south-west … We have the biggest grid-scale batteries in Australia, and some of the biggest on the planet being hooked up to that grid,” he said.

A Memorandum of Understanding was signed between WA Premier Roger Cook and Tesla Motors Australia in December, with the former stating the deal will ensure Collie’s place as an energy hub for the state.

“This partnership is a great win for WA and particularly for Collie, supporting local jobs servicing batteries from not just our state but potentially the wider Asia-Pacific region,” Cook said.

“Collie has been the heart of our energy system for the past century, and projects like this mean Collie will have a bright future as WA transitions away from coal.”
