| 0:00.0 | Hey everybody, Rob Mauer here and today we're going to be talking a little bit about Tesla |
| 0:10.9 | stock, Tesla's approach with their sensor suite, plaid delivery timelines, we've got Wells |
| 0:15.6 | Fargo picking up coverage of Tesla stock, some news on charging and batteries. |
| 0:20.1 | Nice start to the week 4 Tesla stock today, after a relatively quiet news weekend, finishing |
