0:00.0 | Hey everybody Rob, Maui here and today we're going to be talking about a new piece from |
0:11.0 | Consumer Reports criticizing Tesla's eye-tracking monitoring, also got an update from NITSA on |
0:16.0 | the investigation of Tesla allowing games to be played while the vehicle is being driven, |
0:20.3 | news on FSD Beta 10.8, new contracts for Tesla for shipping, and for graphite, little bit |
0:25.4 | of news on charging, and a couple other things as well. |
0:28.2 | Speaking of the stock, another really strong day for Tesla today to wrap up the week, remember |
0:31.6 | the markets are closed tomorrow. |
0:33.3 | Tesla today finishing up 5.8% to $1,067 even, while the NASDAQ was up about 9.10% of |

1:09.0 | the same as what we've been seeing, about 2.1 million shares exercised, 934,000 sold, |
1:14.4 | bringing the total sold so far up to about 14.8 million shares. |
1:17.9 | Now, we're just at the very fairytale end here, there are only 1.5 million shares that |
1:22.1 | have been vested, that have not been exercised from this 2012 performance award, that means |
1:26.9 | that there is basically less than one lot left at the size that Elon has been doing. |
