| 0:00.0 | Hello and welcome to the Wednesday February 5th |
| 0:09.5 | 2020 edition of beginning because as a recording which is a little bit before market close we are |
| 0:23.8 | sitting down 20 percent. So starting off with the stock we do have some news here |
| 0:28.7 | from Gigafactory Shanghai and then also an analyst update but I think this is just a continuation of the sell-off |
| 0:34.4 | that we saw at the end of the day yesterday. |
| 0:36.8 | I think we're continuing to be in that zone |
| 0:39.2 | where we're trying to find a floor |

| 1:12.7 | 1,000 wouldn't surprise me, 500 wouldn't surprise me. |
| 1:15.1 | I think we just need to find that floor and then once Tesla does that and people get comfortable |
| 1:19.4 | that that is a level that can be maintained, then that's when we can start to rise again. |
| 1:24.0 | But with the volatility, I think anybody's best guess again on what happens. |
| 1:28.0 | Anyway, just to touch quickly on the news that we have, we have CNBC reporting this morning that Tesla would be delaying deliveries from Gigafactory Shanghai and |
