In many ways, Tesla & Enron are similar.
But there are 2 major differences I will show you.
Difference 1
According to this article which quotes NYSE data, less than 2% of Enron shares were shorted even as it entered a clear downtrend that lasted 2 years.
www.latimes.com/arch...petruno20-story.html
No one was short Enron. We never heard bears talk about it.
Tesla thought... wow.
In mid 2019, up to 44 million of Tesla shares were sold short. Over 30% of the total shares.
Even as it soared 150% above the previous high, there are still (31 01 2020) 22.7 millions shares sold short. 16%.
They just don't give up.
The company may be making 200 years old tech electric cars, and not make sense and not profitable, but investors do not care.
Buying a cheap company worth something like Warren Buffet does will almost always work. But selling short something... Delusions can last a long time...
Difference 2
Stock market trending up strongly, Tesla trending up strongly.
Enron went from $90 to $0.21 between August 2000 (at a time where every one was ultra euphoric about to dot com bubble) and December 2001 & from $80 between decembers.
Enron had a clear multi month distribution pattern at the top of a decade long uptrend that ended parabolic.
80 to 0.21 is a 99.74% drop in 12 months.
90 to 0.21 is 99.77% drop in 16 months.
Eager to short the very top? For an added 0.03%? FOMO.
Tesla will be a short when it enters a distribution phase.
And when bears will have been "proven wrong".
When it will be common knowledge that the bears were wrong and Tesla is a big success.
When less than 10% - or less than 5% preferably - of the share will be shorted.
Tesla will be a short when bears will be seen as extravagant weirdos.
Look at Tesla last distribution phase.
You could have made up to 50% even with all the FUD & ~25% of outstanding shares sold short.
And the one before that:
Again up to 50% was possible.
There are tiny Tesla youtube channels with a handful of suscribers getting hundreds of thousands of views on videos making fun of bears and celebrating "this didn't age well".
Tesla bulls are euphoric. 1k could certainly be the top. IF the price enters distribution phase it could be a very interesting short *rubbing my hands irl right now*.
Can go up, can go straight down in which case I'd miss it but I don't care. It's about taking high probability bets not chasing every thing that moves because of fomo.
For now, patience.
There are other stocks or markets to look at.
I am sure there are famous quotes about choosing your battles wisely.
A speculator gets used to waiting years for certain opportunities.
It is not about all the trades you took and moves you didn't miss. It is about the ones you filtered out. Keeping only the high probability bets.
Less is more.
