The prophecy will soon be complete… • Warren Buffett invests in $TSLA • Elon Musk gets paid • Interest rates drop • FSD is solved and Robotaxi begins deployment • Optimus begins factory work Meanwhile, Cybertruck continues to ramp up along with Upgraded Model 3. Tesla energy is booming. Q1 2024 was a record of 4.1 GWh of energy storage deployed. Gross profit was up 140% YoY and Energy Generation and Storage is currently Tesla’s highest margin business. Optimus is rapidly improving and Robotaxi event on 8/8 is around the corner along with cheaper vehicles for the masses. ARK Invest currently has a price target of $2000 on $TSLA by 2027 — they’ll be updating this soon. The stock is currently ~$180. The perfect storm is brewing. Tesla is building the future.

I just had an interesting conversation with a founder about the disregard of confidentiality in the startup ecosystem. Decks, financial models and sensitive information are often passed around with impunity. Surprised people don't talk about this more publicly.

Long-term goal for a client: Leave 80% of his meetings without new items on his to-do list. (That is, let his team "own" most followups.)
