Hey everybody, Rob now we're here and today we've got some new insights on the EV market

from a survey from the Washington Post, we've also got updates on Thailand, India and

a few other items as well.

Quickly looking at the stock, the downtrend that we saw in the market after the FOMC meeting

yesterday continued today and as decked down 1.8%, Tesla down 2.6% so not bad with the macro,

but finishing at $255.70 on the day.

Alright, we'll start off with a new survey from the Washington Post that's got some

attention on X today, including from Elon, so I wanted to share my thoughts on it as

well.

And there is actually some pretty interesting data on a number of different topics in

here.

So this survey was conducted by the Washington Post in partnership with the University of

Maryland using a panel put together in partnership with the University of Chicago.

1400 participants that they feel was a representative sample with the sampling error of about

3.5%.

The survey was done in mid-July this year.

So the first question that we'll take a look at says, regardless of how much they might

cost, which type of vehicle would you rather own?

Gas-powered vehicle, a hybrid that does not plug in, a fully electric vehicle, or a plug

in hybrid.

So 19% answered fully electric vehicle, 1% skipped or didn't know, the other 80% falling

into either gas-powered or hybrid vehicle, bucket.
