| 0:00.0 | Hey, everybody Rob Maower here and today we're going to be talking a little bit about |
| 0:10.6 | Tesla stock and the S&P 500 inclusion. We have the official final scenario |
| 0:15.4 | now announced by the S&P. So we'll talk a bit about that and then we also have news on the |
| 0:19.4 | China Made Model Y, FSD beta, and a couple other stories to go through. |
| 0:23.6 | All right, so kind of a wild day for the stock today, |
| 0:25.9 | opening above 600 at $602 per share, |
| 0:28.7 | hitting about $608 per share on the day, |
| 0:31.6 | but then ending up down 3%, 3.1% to be precise, to 567.60, that compared to the NASDAQ down slightly, less than one-tenth of a percent. |
| 0:42.3 | The wildness has continued in the after-hour session |
| 0:44.9 | so we'll talk about that here in a second. But first we'll take a quick look at volume so |

| 1:08.8 | spike up about 4 or 5 percent, really making up for the entire drop during the day. |
| 1:13.3 | As I'm recording that's really happening between $585 per share, $585.595 per share. |
| 1:18.3 | We'll see where it goes. |
| 1:19.3 | But this was on the news that I said to be on the lookout for last week, the official announcement from the S&P 500 about how |
| 1:25.5 | Tesla will be included in the index, whether that would be in tranches, split up between the |
| 1:30.5 | December 14th date and the December 21st date or all at once. |
| 1:34.6 | Now with the official release, the S&P has announced that it, quote, has determined it will |
