Hey everybody, Rob Maurer here and today we've got one of Tesla's most significant rounds

of price increases ever to talk about.

We've also got a rumor on demand, the labor secretary for the United States visiting

Kickfactory, Texas.

Also got some news on Tesla Insurance and possibly FSD Hardware 4.

Looking at the markets today, Tesla with a big move, but just jumping up back to where

it was on Friday, up 4.6% to $801.89 while the NASDAQ also jumping significantly

up 2.9% as the macro volatility continues.

Before market opened today, we did have the release of the producer price index numbers

for February, so this is another measure of inflation.

The index increased 0.8% month over month in February from January and 10% even year

over year.

That was slightly below expectations CNBC reported that the Dow Jones estimate was 0.9%

versus 0.8% actual, and they also point out that excluding food, energy and trade services,

those first two we had noted were big drivers of the CPI increase, but excluding those,

the producer price index increased just 0.2% month over month versus 0.6% expected with

those excluded.

So kind of an extra port, but some good news in there.

If we look at the month over month change graph, this shows the total in black but then

also differentiates between goods and services, you can see in blue there, at 2.4% this is

the highest month over month increase ever for PPI goods since the index began back

in 2009.
