Yeah but what about the index on T212 SPX500 when does this get adjusted to include Tesla? Not sure how it works. ---

So I want to see how many of TSLA preachers in here have those market orders from 20th March? Cā€™mon donā€™t be shy, I want to see those $$$$ invested when we were crashing. Because of some folks ā€œconvictionā€ personally would sell all my belongings and put on tesla. ---

Well I had no doubts about few members. But there is bunch of loud TsLa folks, who I donā€™t believe ā€œput money where there mouth isā€. I am really curious off all 100k who have TSLA on T212, especially those on community. That actually bought during March meltdown. ---

So wonā€™t the opposite happen to the one exiting? Doesnā€™t that guarantee a price fall come Teslaā€™s inclusion and itā€™s exit. Whatever ā€˜itā€™ is, arbitrage surely? Canā€™t be that simple. ---

Most likely in the near term the stock exiting will fall a bit. No idea which stock it will be yet though. ---

Iā€™m in Tesla with an average buy in of just over $400, Iā€™ve bought in on every dip so far same for my other halfs account. I donā€™t see it dropping below my previous target price of 530-540 but equally I didnā€™t expect it to do $650 however short lived for now that may be ---

So you bought at March 20-24th? šŸ­ @InvestOnly I am a bad market timer, usually I buy high and sell low. With that skill set I rather not touch TSLA. ---

I would rather put money in and incinerator, then in company which uses name of genius scientist. 10 Billion dilution in 3 months for company which was 50 Billion Cap just 12 months ago. True genius in work, capitalism at finest.
