Hey everybody, Rob Mauer here and today of course we're going to be talking about Elon Musk

0:11.1

and his decision to take a stake in Twitter, but we've also got news on Giga Shanghai,

0:15.5

Giga Texas, FSD, Supercharging and a few other topics as well, and we'll also circle

0:19.6

back for a couple more thoughts on Tesla's delivery and production report from this weekend.

0:23.3

Alright, we'll start off with the stock and nice day for Tesla today following that

0:26.4

delivery report, up 5.6% to close at $1,145 per share, and now all of a sudden we are

1:06.6

of the delivery report.

1:07.6

I think the volume paints the same picture, not a particularly high volume day today for

1:11.4

Tesla about 26-27 million shares traded, which is almost exactly average for year to

1:15.9

date, and about 13% below the average Monday's volume, which tends to be a little bit higher.

1:20.5

Alright, another quick thing I want to mention here at the beginning, just because I didn't

1:23.8

actually notice it when we were doing the live stream from the delivery report this weekend,

1:27.2

which by the way, if you're an audio listener, you can find that on YouTube.

1:29.8

But Tesla with this delivery report did something that they've never done before, and that
