Hello and welcome to the Monday December 17th

2018 of Tesla Daily Unofficial Tesla Podcast.

My name is Rob Maower, we don't have any huge news today,

but a couple of miscellaneous things that I thought worth mentioning.

Probably a bit of a quicker episode today, though.

Tesla stock with a rough day finishing down 4.73% to $348.42 as compared to the Nasdak down 2.27%

so tougher day for the macro environment as well. As I said, nothing major going on in the news.

I think this is just kind of one of those days,

tough macro environment.

Tesla has been overperforming.

That can't happen every single day, unfortunately.

I think it makes some sense to see a pullback here. I'm not worrying personally, even in the short term.

For those keeping track at home, I do still have all my positions. I haven't closed out any of the options.

Really wishing I would have last week at this point, but sometimes that's how it goes.

I wouldn't be surprised if I end up holding these all the way until expiration.

All right, so getting into the news then, the first and most important piece of news I think is that

Tesla has started construction on Gigafactory 3 in China. There was a new video

posted of a drone flyover of the Gigafactory 3 location. Right now they basically have a perimeter fence,

some equipment on site, and right now that's about it.

The land does look like it's been leveled.

It's still very wet.

I don't know if that's a normal thing at this stage, if anybody has any insight to that I'd be curious to hear it
