Hey everybody, we're out of malware here and today, as expected, we are going to be

talking about China July sales reports.

We do also then have an update on the cyber truck and the Model S, news on the trillion

dollar infrastructure plan and a couple other stories as well.

Not too bad of a day for Tesla stock given the context of the China numbers, which of course

we'll talk about in a second, but Tesla finishing down about half a percent to $709.99.

The NASDAQ was also down about half a percent.

So all in all, a pretty quiet day for the stock, and that low, low volume that we have been

seeing continues about 13 million shares trading today, two of the last four trading days

have been the lowest volume days that we have seen in about a year and a half.

Alright, so let's talk about those China numbers, which came out overnight here in

the US.

These can be a little bit confusing in terms of what they actually mean, so we'll talk

about that.

But the first set of numbers that we got was reported from Shinchu Shing, which I'm

sure I'm butchering the pronunciation of, but that report put China to July sales for

Tesla at $8,998, comprised of $6,601 Model 3 and $2,397 Model White.

Obviously those numbers are down quite a bit from June levels, it looks a little bit concerning

at first, but shortly after that came out, we did get the report from the CPCA, so these

are usually the numbers we're talking about.

That's the China passenger car association, which while they're not Tesla official numbers

they have seemed to be pretty accurate in the past.
