Hey everybody, we're out of malware here. Welcome back to Tesla Daily. Today, we're

price for all these different stock sales over the last couple of months. And then right

next to that, the total amount of money that those sales generated and that is in millions

of dollars. So if you see a thousand there, it's actually a billion. And thanks to Gary

Black for tracking these transaction prices, that's where I'm grabbing this data from.

Now, when we're talking about the tax implications here, we need to divide these into two groups.

So that's what I've done with the colors here. In blue, we have options related sales,
