0:00.0 | Hey everybody, we're out of malware here. Welcome back to Tesla Daily. Today, we're |
0:10.6 | going to be talking a little bit about Elon Musk's stock sale and light of his tweet |
0:14.5 | over the weekend, saying that he'll pay over $11 billion in taxes. A lot of people wondering |
0:18.8 | if that means he's done selling now. So we'll take a look at the math on that and |
0:21.9 | I'll share my thoughts. We've also got a status update on the US Federal EV tax credit. |
0:26.4 | New analyst coverage of Tesla, Gigabrah, and Texas updates and a handful of other stories |
0:31.0 | as well. Another tough start of the week for the markets and for Tesla today, Tesla finishing |
0:35.5 | down 3.5% to $899.94 while the NASDAQ closed down about 1.25%. As a reminder, this will |
0:43.5 | be a short week of trading, even though Christmas Day does fall on Saturday this year, the |

1:07.3 | finalized. Alright, so let's look at our sale tracking sheet and kind of see where Elon |
1:10.9 | is at right now with those sales. So I've added a couple columns here, the average sale |
1:15.0 | price for all these different stock sales over the last couple of months. And then right |
1:18.5 | next to that, the total amount of money that those sales generated and that is in millions |
1:23.5 | of dollars. So if you see a thousand there, it's actually a billion. And thanks to Gary |
1:27.3 | Black for tracking these transaction prices, that's where I'm grabbing this data from. |
1:31.0 | Now, when we're talking about the tax implications here, we need to divide these into two groups. |
1:34.9 | So that's what I've done with the colors here. In blue, we have options related sales, |
