The e-mail's optimistic tone helped Tesla shares turn positive for the first time in seven days.

shares rose 1.4% Thursday after CEO Elon Musk sent an e-mail to all employees saying the electric vehicle maker is close to reaching its target production numbers for the Model 3 this quarter.. The company added nearly $500 million to its market cap, reaching around $34.6 billion, in early trading on Thursday.As of yesterday we had over 50,000 net new orders for this quarter.

In order to achieve this, we need sustained output of 1,000 Model 3's per day. Almost all parts of the Model 3 production system have exceeded 1,000 units on multiple days and we've averaged about 900/day this week, so we're only about 10% away from 7,000/week.Analysts had been losing confidence in Tesla's stock during the past week as the company entered cost-cutting mode.

Loup Ventures co-founder Gene Munster gave the stock its latest downward revision Thursday. Munster expected the company would miss its delivery expectations this year especially as trade tensions drag on between the U.S. and China. He lowered 2019 delivery estimates about 10% to just 310,000 vehicles compared to guidance between 360,000 and 400,000.

While Musk's email to Tesla employees shed a light on production progress, logistics remains another challenge for the company in meeting its second-quarter delivery goals.

Usual market manipulation with fake promises, leaking partial data, etc. So typically Musk ... Musk is a con man, and TSLA is a house of cards. TSLA will go bankrupt as soon as some fools stop to fund its bottomless pit ... SELL it or short it,if you can.

Genius. Leak a high estimate to stop a falling stock price. Not be held accountable to accuracy.

He has no employees...🧐

One problem. The average price per car sold is dropping like a stone. Are they even making money on each car?

Autonomous vehicle pioneer doubles down on technology Tesla CEO Elon Musk calls 'freaking stupid'A pioneer in autonomous driving is doubling down on a self-driving technology called lidar that uses sensors to navigate through traffic, instead of cameras, just a few weeks after Tesla CEO Elon Musk called the technology 'freaking stupid.' A $2b company picking up a $50m company is in no way 'doubling down'. Hedging, perhaps.

‘Dark clouds over Fremont’: Tesla enters survival mode as stock price dropsElon Musk’s growth story is looking more like a fable as Tesla Inc. enters survival mode. Potential sales to China could be cut by half due to trade war. The overall auto market in China already is seeing a sales decline for the first time in a generation. The auto market in the U.S. is softening as well. winning Dude sells flame throwers to sycophants and boring holes to dumber cities. Check his house tho... Tesla will not be around much longer

Elon Musk rewrites fast-moving Tesla cash storyThe electric-car maker’s CEO is mandating “hardcore” cost controls, admitting Tesla could burn $2.4 bln of new capital in 10 months. That puts growth plans in question. It also seems to contradict earlier rosier statements. Investors and watchdogs should have a few questions.

Amazon wearable device may soon be able to read human emotionsThe wearable reportedly uses microphones and software to recognize emotions from a person’s voice. Big Brother isn't coming. He's already here. I'm pretty sure nobody on that team at Amazon watched the Doctor Who episode titled 'Smile' because otherwise they'd know that punishing people for having the *wrong* emotions is so obviously the next step.
